Review of Rocky IV (1985) by Johan B — 29 Aug 2015
I'm gonna keep this review short and to the point. Alright so here's Rocky 4, to me it wasn't really needed as we have seen Rocky winning the belt and be a champion. So let's start with the story there are some moments in there that are pretty awkward to be honest.
But it's not really the worst I have seen as it manages to make the build up to the movie good. 5/10 story. The real thing the movie has it going for itself is the training montage and the fight. The training montage is the best part I swear I got so pumped when I watched the movie and felt like boxing! The fight, hmmm well it's good but really unrealistic, Drago hits is wroth 2000 lbs (800 kg) and Rocky takes at least 400 of them! So he probably would have died after one round but never the less it manages to be entertaining.
Oh yeah I forgot to mention that there is two fights in the game, the first one is Apollo vs Ivan Drago (The opponent Rocky also fought). The fight turns out to be a disaster and it takes Apollo life.
It's a great build up as you really wanna see Rocky beat this guy (especially after his Ice cold "If he dies,he dies). So it's not a bad movie it's.... watchable. Very 80s and over the top :).
