Avildsen, returning as director since helming the first and best of the franchise, adds nothing to this dull cheap shot. In this PG-13-rated sports drama, reluctantly retired riches to rags boxer Rocky (Stallone) takes on a new protégé (Tommy Morrison) who betrays him. Instead, our iconic hero refuses a bite of humble pie and reduces himself to fighting outside of a bar, which pretty much sums up where the worst film of the series takes the franchise: the gutters. Like Rocky, it comes to down to what's most important in life over winning.which should've ultimately involved walking away from a fight that's beneath him. Amazingly, it's not the betrayal of a back-stabbing protégé that forces the Italian Stallion to fight but the fact that his son loses faith in him. Throwing out the boxer with the bath water, Stallone's fourth Rocky sequel strips away the character's riches and, inadvertently, his underdog cred. But, truth be told, it's damn entertaining hogwash.In taking the iconic character's fight to the streets, the unnecessary part V Rockys and rolls the franchise into an uninspired and boring corner. As for the fight, in which computer analytics break down the actualities in a staged exhibition between far-over-the-hill Rocky and the current champion, it borders on hogwash. Rocky's embattled relationship with his son teeters on the same melodramatic precipice, but it nonetheless rings true. ![]() If only his scenes with Stallone - mostly them trekking through Philadelphia revisiting long gone haunts - didn't descend into melodrama. It's also great to see Young, so long relegated to third tier player, finally get elevated to second billing. Here, as a restaurateur happily telling old fight stories at - you guessed it -Adrian's, his next chapter feels wholly appropriate and plausible yet entirely respectful of the Balboa legacy. With Adrian - long Rocky's anchor - out of the picture, the iconic character gets a refreshing new story arc while keeping her spirit very much alive and Stallone brings great poignancy to the part. Somebody Up There Likes Me is a film about and expression attributed to boxing champ Rocky Marciano, but it likewise applies to another successful pugilist called Rocky, namely Balboa. ![]() In this PG-rated sports drama, widower Rocky Balboa (Stallone) comes out of retirement and dons his gloves for his final fight, which pits him against the reigning heavyweight champ Mason 'The Line' Dixon (Antonio Tarver). Even though the film revisits a lot of the franchise's past and the main event proves far-fetched, this heart-warming sequel nonetheless ratchets up the entertainment value for an entire 12 rounds. If viewers watch blow for blow, however, they're truly in for one of the better Rocky films. After all, the fourth Rocky sequel denigrated the series and our hero retired 20 years ago. Audiences have every reason to want to boo this latter-day follow-up without even watching the fight-let alone sitting ringside. Restoring the character's Can-Do underdog qualities, this Rocky-solid redemption tale truly deserves a look from anyone who dropped out of the franchise after the low blow known as Rocky V.
