Fun Stuff

Trivia:
This is the only Rocky film to be rated PG-13. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the scene where Rocky is taking a shower in the beginning of the film he calls out "Hey Tony" calling to Duke. It was never clear to what his first name might have been, until Rocky Balboa revealed during the fight conference that his name was Duke Evers. Sylvester Stallone obviously called out the actor's name "Tony" instead of his character's "Duke". more

I thought Rocky V was supposed to be bad?! No no no! It is certainly different from the other 4 in that this time Rocky is retired and is working at Mickey's gym which he now owns...and looking after his son. Great, right? A father-son movie. But the wonderful thing is, it isn't drawn out with boring scenes of bonding and what not. This movie made me more angry than Rocky IV even. I won't say why for that would just ruin the fun part. This movie stays realistic to the character of Rocky, but this time it is more about his relationship not with himself but with the people around him. This movie is fun.

8/10.
