    rocky #4 was my favorite , the ****in music was dope , the fight was amazing and it sent a good message ... i also think rocky 3 was tight as hell with mr.T ...but 4 was the best hands down
    Rocky 4 was a propaganda film with a ridiculous opponent in terms of what he was measured at early in the fight, a cornyass robot flying around, a rehash of the single gayest part in the series with Rocky and Apollo running with each other in their short shorts and then frolicking in the water after the Stallion eventually overtakes him... it's terrible even before the "if I can change, you can change" speech that was like a government public service message

    Rocky 4 is the worst of the series

    Rocky is my favorite.

      Nothing beats the original; it was a bonafied classic.

      II was entertaining and the closest in content to the original of all the sequels; you got to see Rocky win after a great, if not unbelievable fight sequence.

      III introduced the world to MR. T and made Hulk Hogan a bonafide star.

      IV was a glorified music video...oh, and we kicked some Russian ass...yahoo, hell yeah, go America.

      V was Stalone trying to recapture the magic of the original and falling woefully short while setting Tommy Morrison up for superstardom and big purses.

      VI...hopefully will be a good storyline; but I doubt it.

        I completely agree with this post.
        The fourth is a complete joke. So much corn, with lots of cheesey music montages.

        Re-watch the sequence in which Apollo is making his lengthy & over-the-top entrance into his fight with Drago......take notice how his gloves are on, then off, then on, then off, then on.....
        A true piece of crap.

          i've read some reviews(movie and script) that says it much better than the last one, which isnt saying much, but still not great unless they tweak it and make some changes....

                  not sure if it was 6th months or 6 years but in any case those heart problems his kid had made him age 6 years in that short amount of time.

                    I love how Drago's punch was measured at 2250lbs psi.....yet he couldn't KO Balboa's midget ass, even while landing 75 consecutive left hooks.

                      The kid was like 5 when Rocky left for Russia and 10 or 12 or 13 or something when he came back. I knew Arctic nights were long; but damn.
