Rocky Balboa- This movie is about a dad who is a supportive father to his son and a good friend to others. He started boxing and made his way to the big leagues. Later on the movie, he meets his best friend’s sister and they start going out to places and dinner. They were having a good time and they fall in love during the whole series. Rocky Balboa was making a big name for himself with his boxing matches and his rep on the streets. Rocky, was always a good boxer and a good supporter to his friends when they are in a boxing match and need some advice to how to beat their opponent. Rocky and his son had a great bond between them and always had a good time with each other. When Rocky has any matches his son is always there watching him. They had some bad moments at times, when Rocky had to always train and leave his son behind and never spend father and son time. Another important character in the movie is Rocky’s friend Apollo; they were the best of friend’s. He was also a well-known boxer himself too. One of his traits is that he was quick on his feet and quick with his hands. Apollo had an important fight of his life against Ivan Drago. Apollo and Drago were in the fight for a long time but Apollo couldn’t hold off for a long time and he died in the match due to Drago’s KO punch. Rocky was angry at Drago and he wanted to have a fight with him. The theme of this story that you can get out of this is; if you train hard at what you do you can achieve it and be good at it. I agree with the critics because this movie is a great inspiring movie and it gives out a good life lesson on never give up on what you try to achieve in life. This movie is worth your time and money because like I said it’s inspiring, awesome movie to watch to see some action, and it has some funny scenes during the movie.
