Review of Rocky IV (1985) by Steven1981 — 21 Mar 2020
Rocky IV made in 1985 and directed by Stallone see's a new, powerful, more dangerous enemy in Dolph Lundgren... Following on from Rocky III which was awful we get the continuation of the story and the next chapter opening in the form of ROCKY IV and Talia Shire, Burt Young, Carl Weathers and Sylvester Stallone return and we see also Dolph Lundgren.
.. Apollo Creed dies at the hands of Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren) who's from the Soviet Union in Russia and a hard hitter, muscle built, mean killing machine with good looks, blonde hair and a giant warrior of boxing.
Rocky Balboa seeks revenge for Apollo's death and set's up a fight with Ivan Drago (Lundgren) then has a gruelling training schedule in Russia before the fight... Rocky's fight with Ivan Drago is good but so unrealistic it's laughable and stupid, they were hard, killer punches especially the right hands.
.. Rocky Balboa (Stallone) must of got hit hard by the Russian at least 200 times and mostly if not all in the face.
