Review of Rocky II (1979) by Alex P — 13 Jan 2010
I was kinda disappointed by this one. Interesting for an action movie to spend so much of the time focused on the more emotional aspects of the two fighter's lives (wife, kids, job, etc) but the payoff at the end wasn't worth it.
The fight scene was pretty frustrating to me because there's no way ANY boxer, no matter what level, wouldn't defend himself at all, and that's exactly what Rocky did. Then the movie magic happens and he comes back to start throwing powerful blows? It was just far too unbelievable and I think the fight in the first one was much better.
