Rocky Balboa (2006)
Former heavyweight champion Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) steps out of retirement and back into the ring, pitting himself against a new rival decades after his initial glory. When a computer simulated boxing match declares Rocky Balboa the victor over current champion Mason "The Line" Dixon, the legendary fighter's passion and spirit are reignited. But when his desire to fight in small, regional competitions is trumped by promoters calling for a rematch of the cyber-fight, Balboa must weigh the mental and physical risks of a high profile exhibition match against his need to be in the ring.

I really thought that I would be disappointed by this movie. The thought of Sylvester Stallone boxing at 60 was funny. I mean the guy is four years older than I am and I wouldn't even think of doing that!

I rushed to the store this week to pick up Rocky Balboa. This is the first DVD that I actually purchased rather then rented in a while. I missed it while it was in the theatre I just never got around to go , and I really try to avoid the theatre at all cost because I always sit beside the most annoying person in the...

After a series of cinematic disasters, like The Specialist, Over the Top, Demolition Man, Judge Dred, Spy Kids 3-D, Driven, and Stop or My Mom Will Shoot, it might be hard to take Sylvester Stallone seriously as an actor, and certainly as anything more than that. Stallone has made some decent movies, like Cliffhanger and...
