Advantages: cast, story

Disadvantages: -

Rocky is a great film and somewhat of a classic with its training montages and Stallones run up the steps as well as the soundtrack. The story is simple enough about a simple but good hearted guy who gets trained to box when he gets a chance to fight for the heavyweight title.

Stallone plays Rocky very well and this is almost certainly his best character (he also wrote the film too) and the rest of the cast are great and make this film. It won a couple of Oscars too and there were high hopes for Stallone after this movie.

It is a feel good film and shows Rockys journey nicely and I've seen the film a couple of times so its never boring. The grittiness of Philadelphia is shot nicely and adds to the films realism and humbleness. It was made on a tight budget before Stallone became a big star but the film went on to gross massive amounts and many sequels were made but non compare to this original.

Summary: must see
