Rocky V

Rating:
Summary: The measure of a champion.
Review: This is the most overlooked film of the entire series.I have loved it ever since the first time I saw it.The last time I saw the dvd on sale,it only had the trailer as a special feature.I would like for Stallone to include the film featurettes,photo galleries,the tv interviews Stallone and his son,Sage Stallone gave for the press,the tv ad campaigns,cast interviews,and everyones'favorite:deleted scenes with and without commentary,including the alleged death of Rocky scene that was reportedly shot and later shelved.This dvd deserves more,in my humble opinion;up to date cast biographies and a music only soundtrack.Rocky V stands tall on its own.

Summary: Rocky V (1990)
Review: This was an alright movie. Rocky gets bankrupted and takes over Mickey's gym. He moves back to the streets were he meets Tommy Gun, and trains Tommy to become the champ.
This was a good movie, but not as good as the other four.

Rating:
Summary: Great in its own way
Review: While I'm not sure this was the closing Rocky film, I believe it should be. And that said, I must point out that this is not intended to be like the other Rocky films. This was a movie about real life; a movie about our relationships with the people who have surrounded us all of our lives - and this film does a great job of making us think about such things.

After Rocky returns from Russia, and his kid has aged like five years in a month, he learns that his attorney has stolen all of his money...drats, it's back to the hood for the now brain-damaged boxer (imagine that). Rocky's only possession is Mick's old gym, and it is outside that gym that Rocky meets Tommy Gunn (Tommy Morrison - I think is his real name). Rocky trains him and gets him some big name fights, but has trouble moving fast enough for the immature Tommy Gunn, who decides to hook up with a Don King-like promoter.

I'm not telling you anymore...you have to buy the film!

Sorry.
