ROCKY IV (Theatrical Release USA 1985)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.7|5.0 Starsìììì

Rocky IV—similar in quality to the Rocky III movie—sets itself apart with inspirational training scenes and great soul rock. This is Sylvester Stallone’s third out of five Rocky films in which he both directs and acts. Watch for Dolph Lundgren as the Russian contender Ivan Drago. The movie is a quality boxing flick.
