This great series was started by Stallone himself, I don't do any professional analysis of the films in this series, I just want to say how I feel. The character Rocky gave me a shock. I saw a spirit in him. In the writings of the French writer Camus, this spirit is a resistance to the nihilistic life, pushing the stone up the mountain again and again, Even if the stone will roll down the mountain again. I want to play a game I know I can't win, and I will do my best to persevere. This spirit is most prominent in the first and sixth parts!

Yes! I used to go on the road with something like "hope of life" in my arms. When I was hit and hurt by life, I would shrink back, and I thought about giving up. I still persevered until one day I found a parent and a class A fact that I won't tell you - life is meaningless, I am broken, if life is meaningless, what is my persistence! I felt like I was walking a tightrope during that time, having insomnia every day and being able to close my eyes for hours without falling asleep. I started running, starting from one kilometer, gradually, three kilometers, five kilometers, ten kilometers, and one day I found that I was running much faster than before! I can't remember which day I read Camus' book, it was shocking! Walking alone in the desert at night, I don't know which direction to go, suddenly you see a room with yellow lights, you enter the room, there is a note left by a senior in the room: If life has no meaning , the only thing you can do is experience!

Later, I realized that I was not alone. The sages of the past and present have faced this question, and they have all made their own answers! And Rocky's answer was: It doesn't matter if I lose, it doesn't matter if he breaks my head, because I just want to stick to it. No one can play full court with Apollo, and if I can play full court, when the bell rings and I'm still on the court, I'll know for the first time in my life that I'm no longer a jerk.
