III was interesting; but nothing special...IV and V I could have done without.....though I will admit to enjoying the Rocky-Drago "Fight" in the theatre at the time. IV, in reality was just a long ass music video with some patriotic, "we can change the world" bruhaha thrown in....not substance whatsoever.
looking back, the first two were the best. the follow-ups were just cashing in on their success and given a little more mass appeal by having a suitable "baddy" opposite sly.
when i was growing up the only ones i caught in the cinema were iv and v, and i loved iv.
Rocky IV was and will always be my favorite. The character of Drago portrayed an image of invincibility and superiority. And the way Rocky conquered this "mountain" through his 'blood'n guts' training and 'never quit' attitude was just priceless.
"The Russian is CUT the Russian is CUT!" Rocky's cornerman is like "You see you see! He's not a machine, he's a man a man!" Damn that **** brings goose bumps.
