Rocky IV Best Sports Movie Ever?!
Question: Rocky IV Best Sports Movie Ever!?
Hi Everyone!. Last night i watched Rocky IV for the first time in years and i have to say i thought it was a really good movie!. Okay, it's no masterpiece or high art or anything but on a pure entertainment level, it's just pure 80's fun!.Probably one of the best sports movies ever!. The training montages are extremely motivating and inspiring and i just love "Hearts on Fire" what with the nature vs technology!.Rocky fought for the right reason's: for Apollo and America!. It also had a good political message to it too!. Anyway i appreciate thought on this!. Thanks!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I love the Rocky movies, and Rocky IV is great, but there is no way I could ever say that Rocky IV was better than Rocky I!. Watching the rise of a street boxing nobody getting a shot at the World Champ is such a great underdog story!.!.!.I remember seeing it as a kid and thinking that anything was possible!. You bring up good points to support why you think Rocky IV is your #1, but to me, Rocky I will always be the best movie ever and there wouldn't have been a Rocky IV without it!Www@Enter-QA@Com
as good as the movie was, it was also the most unrealistc!.
there were interviews with real refs at the time and were asked what they thought of the fight between Drago and Rocky!.
they said that not one of them would have let the fight go 15 rounds!.
Rocky fell 13 times in 15 rounds and they would have called it very earlier!.

I would hardly rate it as the best sports movie ever!.!.!.!.it would not even qualify as being in my Top 50!.
The original Rocky is in the Top 10 but then they just got cornier and cornier with each sequel!.
R4 will never top such movies as Raging Bull, Slap Shot, Bull Durham!.
The good political message is what!? Americans good, Soviets bad!?
Gah!.
Pure Reagan-era tripe if you ask me!.!.!.!.
