Rocky is a must-see film. It´s one of the best movies we´ve seen. The lead actor is Sylvester Stallone. The cast also includes Burt Young, Talia Shire, Carl Weathers and Burgess Meredith
The film tells the story of Rocky ( set by Sylvester Stallone) , a boxer from Philadelphia ( Don´t know how to write it :P). Rocky has never gotten a real chance on sports, and worked as a henchman. Until the day that Apollo challenges him. Apollo Creed is the heavyweight world champion of boxing. He was trying to choose an amateurish boxer to fight him. After some time, he watches Rocky fights and challenges him. Upward on, Rocky starts to train with an ex-boxer, Mickey Goldmill. He also falls in love with his friend´s sister, Adrian. Rocky, while training, think he "will not do it" in the fight, but he keeps training hard, running on the city and punching meat in a frig, while Apollo trains with the ultimate technology. Well, the fight day comes up, and Rocky is gonna fight Apollo... Will he make it? It´s about you to see!
The film is very moving. When we see Rocky training, we want him to do it. Rocky teaches us to never give up, and always keep trying your best. Simply amazing film. See it!
