Review of Rocky V (1990) by Diptanshu — 24 Jun 2020

The best in franchise after 1st one its underrated gem!it was emotionally and mentally brilliant and satisfying,it was unique and fresh and new take on Rocky's journey rather than same plot another level fights,it was heart-breaking,touching and brilliant.

The music was phenomenal,the story was brilliant so does screenplay,the acting was iconic the new characters were amazing with there politics and the family was great,the starting comeback from Russia and the new challenge for rocky from new Manager it was like here we go again it felt like its going same way as prequels but it was surprising,the whole bankrupt thing and the cause for it the Paul he's like it just happened it was over the top and miss-fortunate thing,the reunion of old house and the streets were amazing the flashbacks of Mickey's were emotionally touching and great,the back in business for Rocky as trainer and the new Guy Tommy and there friendship at start was amazingly developed although in between it the Rocky jr's thing was heart-breaking and sad his arc throughout the story was brilliant and full of life lessons,the little and small details to society and parenthood it was brilliantly showcased.

The Tommy's training and winning scenes were amazing,the main twist with brilliant play by manager brainwashing Tommy and using against Rocky it was heart-breaking and emotional the street scene it was strong and brilliant then the later match wining speech of Tommy not mentioning Rocky and him watching in TV was literally Emotional and strikingly sad,then the Rocky's Realization of whats good for everyone and all it was pure brilliant then the whole ending the people telling Rocky as real champion and Tommy's obsession to defeat Rocky and the manager's tactic to letting them fight then the whole ending emotional conversation and street fight it was pure mind-blowing and amazing it was emotionally great,the last punch to Manager was satisfying as hell.
