definitely... I think it brought back the mood of Rocky I... you know, where you kinda almost feel sorry for the guy cause he has a rough life, and he just wants to be able to "go the distance".

All in all, it wasn't too bad.

i loved them all. Especially the talk he has with his son outside the restaurant before training. Overall a good end of the series.

Same here... however, I enjoy a lot of movies that most people don't care for.

4 was absurd. The ending with RUSSIANS pulling for Rocky was patently absurd at the time.

Don't hold your breath.

I like this one alot more than 5, but I think this one would have been much better if it came out when 5 did.

What??? If I can change, and yous can change, maybe we all can change. This and 3 are neck and neck for the best of the series in my list.

I rank them 4,3,2,1,6,paint drying, grass growing, 5.

However, I am a huge fan of the series and find 6 and 1 VERY enjoyable but like 2, 3, and 4 way better.

Clubber Lang and Drago were great bad guys.
2 of the best lines in the series:
"PAIN!"
"I must break you"

you forgot "I do not accept the challenge from Balboa because he is no challenge. If he wants a rematch, that's fine"

4 was awesome. Not only did you have great lines, but the way Rocky trained was great: pulling tractors, running up mountains, being chased by Russian agents. Can't beat that.

I was pleasantly surprised and thought it was good.

I think it woulda been even cooler to just end the movie BEFORE giving the judge's decision, mainly because whether he won or loss didnt matter at the time, he proved that he could still go toe to toe with the best. Not a big deal, I just thought that woulda been a more fitting ending.

Oh, and 4 was the undisputable GOAT movie in the series.

The first Rocky movie was by far the best.
