"You, I, no one can hit harder than life, but it's not about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can be hit and keep going." _ Rocky Balboa Classic The line
"Rocky 6" is one of my favorites in the series.
Thirty years later, the former "Italian Stallion" has retired from the boxing world for many years, running a restaurant, and there are diners who come here to hear the story.
The old neighborhood where Rocky and Adrian lived, now looks decadent, it's all outdated, and so is his title of boxing champion.
There are newcomers in the boxing world, and advanced technology simulates an inter-generational duel.
It was still the same gray sportswear with a black felt hat. Although the physical training was a little difficult, the moment "Gonna fly now" sounded, it was still exciting.
He was running, straddling the last steps of Philadelphia Square, jumping with joy, holding his right hand high, repeating yesterday.

I don't pay much attention to the winning or losing part of the boxing match, because my favorite part is the training part before the match...
This time's physical training is a big challenge for Loki, after all, the age is there, the damage accumulated by the body, high Intensive time training, an action that was once easy to complete, now takes twice as much effort to complete, and the process is undoubtedly arduous.
What I admire very much is that no matter how difficult the training is and how bad the environment is ("Rocky 5" has a scene of running on snow, basically one foot down, a deep snow pit), Rocky's enthusiasm is still the same, and he has never Complain to others and give it your all in every game.
Is it important to win?
"Very important."
What does it mean to lose?
"A new life."
In the last match, the audience on stage and the audience outside the screen were all looking forward to the undefeated myth being written again, but life will inevitably leave regrets, and the result does not seem to be that important. The audience cheered "Rocky", and when I looked back, I realized that this story had come to an end.
The end of the Loki series, from one to six, the years have changed his life trajectory, appearance, figure, physical strength, but what can be preserved forever is that he "life beat me, keep going", never give up, never give up the spirit of.
A hero is always a hero.
Your spirit is what keeps me going (although my efforts are less than a tenth of yours).
"Keep going, you can do it."
(I don't agree with some people who think that losing is a shameful thing, so I completely negate the "good track" of other people's early efforts and focus on winning Fang.
People who work hard are the cutest, no matter whether they win or lose.)

    I thought this was just a sequel with nostalgia as a selling point, but I didn't expect that sixteen years after the Rocky series, this film has far exceeded expectations. Even if the final duel didn't happen, even if Rocky, who was more than 30 years older than the boxing champion, didn't make it to the end, this was a successful movie. Rocky's unforgettable original intention to his deceased wife, caring and unreasonable care for his former friends, and earnest teaching to his son are the wisdom accumulated by the elders for a lifetime; even looking back at the glorious past, it was a hero who ended but still unwilling to do so. the heart of a child. If the committee didn't approve him to get a boxing license, he also had a brilliant life, but he stood in the ring and continued to perform the final legend. Just like the first one, Rocky persisted until the end, winning or losing is no longer important, he lost the game and won respect. Stallone is really an acting superstar and screenwriter who was delayed by action movies.
