    About this product

    Product Information

    ROCKY BALBOA, the sixth installment of the long-running film franchise, should amount to nothing more than a lame punch line to a TONIGHT SHOW monologue joke. However, just as his longtime corner man Paulie describes the Italian Stallion himself, this movie is all heart. Thirty years after Sylvester Stallone first introduced the underdog backroom brawler from Philadelphia in the Oscar-winning ROCKY, Rocky Balboa returns for one last dance. Speculation as to whether Balboa, in his prime, would have been able to defeat lackluster champ Mason "The Line" Dixon spurs Dixon's management to set up an exhibition fight between the two. That Balboa is in his 50s in the film and wouldn't be sanctioned to fight anyone, let alone a man 30 years his junior and in the prime of life, must be left up to the viewer's ability to suspend disbelief. To its credit, however, the movie addresses at every turn the insanity of a man approaching 60 getting back into a boxing ring, and Balboa's impassioned explanation of his motivations is just believable enough to give all other improbabilities a free pass.Though it may sound like faint praise, this is the best ROCKY movie since the original. It's very much a love letter to Philadelphia, and Stallone, who wrote and directed the movie, shoots everything with an unflinching eye that humanizes the mean streets of the City of Brotherly Love and evokes the gritty dignity of the original film. And while Burt Young's cantankerous Paulie and Tony Burton's Duke both return, Talia Shire, sadly, does not reprise her role as the beloved Adrian. It's revealed early in the film that Adrian has died of cancer, and it's the pain of that tragedy that ultimately fuels Rocky. Boxing as a metaphor for life is certainly nothing new, but Stallone makes a legitimate contribution to the tradition with ROCKY BALBOA. Life hits harder than any man can, and one's ability to keep getting up until the final bell rings is the true measure of self. Corny? Perhaps. But when Bill Conti's legendary score kicks in and Rocky starts pounding the heavy bag, the metaphor feels truly profound.

      Near mint condition and was as described. Was a wealth of information! Seller packaged with stiff cardboard on both sides of item and labeled "do not bend" on the outside just as I had asked which was very appreciated! Item was very well protected and I hope to do business with this seller again! Even gave me a receipt which is rare to get with most packages anymore! Item was also shipped faster than expected!

      Received this DVD very quickly. It arrived in perfect, excellent condition, and was actually better than expected. The DVD and case look brand new. This was a really great deal. The seller packed the item with care. I’m very happy with this purchase. ** One rather curious thing, though: the listing states the item is in Saint Paul, Minnesota; however, the return address on the package is North Port, Florida. Probably a logical explanation, just a little odd. Still highly recommend this seller.

      Age may rob the body, but the heart of a winner is never defeated by time.

      I enjoyed this retreat to the original Rock character. A retired boxer who seems satisfied running a restaurant & bar and recounts stories of his past glory during his career of as a boxer. His son resents the fact that he lives in the shadow of his father's reputation in a neighborhood where he is a has been. Like the movie grudge match a computer boxing game stirs interest in his former prowess as a boxer & when the current heavyweight champion becomes frustrated that a computer simulation makes him a loser to the former champion. In a "exhibition match" Rockey recaptures his self respect and shows the world that age may slow down the body, but the spirit of a winner isn't demished by time.
