Rocky Balboa
24 December 2006, evening time
Ahilan really wanted to go see the new Rocky film. The two of us, plus two of my cousins, sat in an almost empty AMC cinema on Christmas Eve watching it. It was a nice film: cheesy and formulaic at times, but all in all quite satisfying. I didn’t think the last fight sequence was as long or as ridiculous as fights from the previous films, but it was still cool to watch.
Went and saw it with my dad this evening. I thought it was really good – it was exactly what it tried to be. Cheesy yes, of course! The fight at the end was far more realistic and tolerable than the air punching fights of the early movies. Stallone looks great for his age.
