    Anyone find Rocky hilariously unwatchable?

    The boxing is just.... facepalm

    Rios would outbox them guys (if they weren't heavy's)

        It's abysmal at times. Stallone overacts horrendously in the fight scenes.

          I think Rios would outbox them beacuse they are actors

            Don't know about that, Rocky sparred Duran when he was preparing for the Creed rematch.

                If it was just like real fighting, it would be boring. In a movie you need every part to be exciting and purposeful. Could you imagine a 3 minute round with Rocky and Clubber lane feeling each other out? lol

                  It just seems like a motivational movie. I don't think it was meant to show boxing fundamentals for kids or any one.

                    When I was young it was the best thing since anything, but watching it now I just laugh at how I could have been taken in by some of the storyline but it was fun though.
