"The eye of the tiger". The beloved Rocky is challenged by a loud-mouthed boxer. This movie has a Bad-ass villain and a sad scene in the middle.

The film that saw the Rocky series ditch any attempt at subtlety or depth and adopt the now familiar formula. On the plus side, MR. T!!

Rocky (Stallone) plans on retiring but is taunted by Clubber (Mr. T). The humor was emphasized with outrageous scenes during the training. Insults from Clubber were too much and the new training gym was just unbelievable. Mickey Goldmill’s (Burgess Meredith) demise was depressing and Apolli getting soft on Rocky was a bit ludicrous. One of the lines that sum up the film - Adrian – “Why you’re human aren’t you?” It shows that Rocky can become vulnerable and a worthy and fierce foe like Apollo can be a friend. The picture was a bit over dramatic, sappy and overdone. Rocky should definitely have ended in Rocky III.

This sequel is bookended by two very entertaining fights and Mr. T makes for nice change of adversary. I've actually watched this Rocky the most out of the whole series, because I enjoy the lighter and fun aspects of it.

Although the final fight against Mr. T stands up against the other "Rocky" boxing matches, the rest of the film simply rehashes a lot of material covered in the previous two films. At least, this movie gave us "Eye of the Tiger."

A decent entry in the series, but not the best. However, it did introduce the world to Eye of the Tiger and while Clubber Lang is no Apollo Creed, Apollo Creed is no Mickey Goldmill... or are they? Anyway, enjoy the music, enjoy the fights, just don't expect to be blown away.
