just got back from "Rocky Balboa"

[MadJack]

if you're a rocky fan like me, go see it.

i liked it. not going to give anything away (like you can do that with a rocky movie but it was decent.

my order of rocky movies best to worst.

#1
#3
#2
#6
#4
#5

usually at 4pm on a wednesday there are NO people at the theaters here. this place was half full today. i think this movie goes OVER the 27 million this weekend.

 

[Dice34]

you really rate #4 just ahead of #5, I like #4 "I must break you"..........#5 is off the map and shouldnt even be listed, but I'm glad to hear #6 is alright, will have to check it out

i thought 5 sucked. 4 was okay but not as good as the others or this new one, imo.

 

[MadJack]

the first hour is slow, real slow, but needed i guess.

 

[Dice34]

for me its

i've only seen the first one & thought it was a great movie for a first time film maker.

i refused to see the others because i just thought sly was milking the franchise.

sorry jack but i won't go see a 60 year old try to re-create his youth.

but am glad you enjoyed it.

if you want to go see a good movie i recommend "the queen"...about how the queen & her dysfunctional family dealt (out of touch with the british people) with princess diana's death.

like i said, you have to be a rocky fan. they entertain me and i like them all (except #5). i've seen 1, 2 and 3 at least 15 times each, more than any other movie except maybe cuckoos nest and good fellas.

for me, the queen will have to wait until it's on dvd and i've seen everything else in the store. not my kind of movie.

i didn't think the queen would be my type of movie either...as a matter of fact i agreed to go if the wife would pay for it...along with soda & popcorn (lol)...but it held my interest & liked it more than i thought.

2 other movies that i would recommend are...blood diamond...& the other leo dicaprio movie he made with nicolson (forgot the name)...both worthwhile.

the movie is called the Departed(De Caprio, Nicholson and Matt Damon)......haven't seen this either but want too and heard good things about Blood Diamond

Thanks for the kick I needed to head for the theatre.........Is Adrian in this one?? Gotta love Sly

 

[MadJack]

Agree with Jack...

If you're a Rocky fan you'll enjoy it. They could have picked up the pace the first hour though.
