      The dignity of the champion

      How to maintain the high-quality sequel level of series movies is a problem for most series movies. I gave this movie 7.5 points. I really tasted boring in some aspects.

      This movie takes place after Rocky and the former boxing champion have settled for 5 years, and Russian boxers come to the United States to play in the gym.

      People are still afraid of failure, afraid of loss, and want to always possess what they have, but the reality is that the waves behind the Yangtze River...

      Rocky 4

      This movie is also a movie I watched two months ago. The fourth in the Rocky series is for the battle of friendship. This is Rocky for his own teacher and friend, although it obviously exaggerates the American value. , But it is still a classic work. Later Kuixu has a tribute to this continuation of this plot. Rocky's character is worthy of praise, and he dares to take risks for friendship. With a tenacious and enterprising spirit, not only defeated the opponent but also won the respect of...

      Rocky IV (Rocky 4) 1985

       

      I started to read "Rocky" again 》It’s a long series.

      I just finished complimenting Sylvester Stallone in the last one, and he doesn't give me a face anymore in this one. As the screenwriter and...

      Dog blood, but meaningful

      It seems that I gave a higher score because I felt bad, so I would not write a film
      review. The background of Rocky 4 is the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. From the plot point of view, this is surprisingly similar to ≪Ip Man 2≫. An older man was beaten to death. All expectations are pinned on the new generation boxing champion, defeating a powerful opponent, and then giving a speech... If Rocky 4 is a Cold War mentality, then Ip Man 2 is also worse than...

      Rocky's ability to resist is extraordinary!

      Stallone is a movie star I like very much. The first movie I came into contact with him was the first blood. 2. His characteristic of being silent and expressionless is his characteristic. However, watching his movies always makes people excited and excited. The Rocky series is still the same, and Stallone's attitude and dedication to making movies are also admirable. But is this filming a bit too far? It's more like a science fiction film. This boxing monster, produced by scientists...

      OMG... God's work has fallen into the mundane... Except for the exercise part, which is very interesting, other parts are a little artificial, and many memory fragments are too long... This is the only one I don't know why Rocky is...

    Behind the scenes gags

    In order to make the Rocky in the film more like a professional boxing champion, before shooting, the director and starring Sylvester Stallone conducted a series of fitness training under the guidance of world-class bodybuilding champion Franco Columbus to gain muscles. He weighed more than ten pounds.
    Two well-known sports announcers, Stunahan of Los Angeles Sports and Werner Wolf of New York Sports, guest stars in the film as sideline...

    Background creation

    Shooting of "Rocky 4" started in the spring of 1985. During the filming in Los Angeles, the production team spent only a few days in the MGM studio. Most of their shooting in Los Angeles was done on location in the city. In order to simulate the climate and scenery of Moscow, the production team came to Canada and set their sights on Vancouver. The arena at the Pacific National Exhibition Center in the city was chosen as the shooting...

    Evaluation action

    Rocky Balboa is back on the screen again. With familiar music, Rocky, who is constantly challenging the peak, can still make the audience cheer. Rocky's training process and the final hot boxing match are the burning points of the film. In addition, "Rocky 4" also created a successful villain. The Soviet boxing champion played by Duff Ronger, who has a cold expression and a strong physique, makes people love and hate. At the end of the...

      Adrian: [to Rocky Jr] Go finish your homework

      Rocky Jr.: Ok, later dad later uncle Paulie later Apollo.

      Paulie: [to as he Rocky Jr. leaves] later big man

      Paulie: Don't you think people expect Rocky to whack this bum out first?

      Apollo: Yeah and he will this is just an exhibition bout, its kids' stuff

      Adrian: What's the purpose? What's it worth getting hurt at this point in your life?

      Adrian: I don't want that chump coming over here with all that hype, they're trying to make us look bad, they tried every other way, with Rock's help we'd get great media coverage and make them look bad for a change

      Adrian: I think it's wrong

      Apollo: No it's never been right

      Adrian: You're a great fighter but you've been retired for nearly five years don't you think it's time to start thinking about something else? How much more can you take? Either of you?

    • Rocky: [Watching footage of the their previous boxing matches against each other] You know this fight with you and the Russian? You think it's not you against him?

      Apollo: If it's not against him, whose it against?

      Rocky: You think it's you against you? I'm speaking the truth here

      Apollo: I don't think I want to hear this

      Rocky: Look, you're a great fighter no doubt about that but we've got to face the facts too, maybe you don't want to believe it but maybe the show's over

      Apollo: That's easy for you to say you're still on top what happens when you're on top then what? Where do we go? Because we sure as hell can't be born again

      Rocky: I know we can't be born again but let's face it we've got to change

      Apollo: I don't want to change I like who I am

      Rocky: I like who you are too but look at that

      [to the footage]

      Rocky: you don't want to believe this but that's not us anymore we can't do it the way we did it before we're changing, turning into regular people

      Apollo: No maybe you think you're changing but you can't change who you really are and you forget all this money you have around you because it doesn't change a thing we don't even have a choice
