 Rocky V September 6, 2010
It is a great movie about when Rocky gets older and still has the ability to fight in the ring. He is a success in the restuarnt business also.

Not the best of the 6 movies,but not bad. I really didn't like it that much, the streetfight was good but not really Rocky-Esque. It could have been a whole Lot better.
just as good as the rest of the Rocky films March 28, 2010

I've been extremely skeptical to rewatch Rocky 5. The reason being, everyone says it's nowhere near as good as the previous four. I originally watched this film when it first came out, but haven't had a chance to rewatch it until now (actually I didn't have any desire to see it again until now).
Well, I'm an adult now, and I can appreciate films a lot better than I did 20 years ago, so approaching this film with an open mind, the million dollar question is, how does Rocky 5 stand up to the previous Rocky classics? Honestly, it's almost on the same level of quality and storytelling.
The ONLY negative thing I can find with Rocky 5 is that the fight scene that takes place at the end has almost entirely NO build-up whatsoever. It just happens rather suddenly, and as quickly as it comes, it's over with. *This* is probably the only disappointing moment in the entire movie, but the rest of the film does a brilliant job focusing on Rocky training a new guy, and dealing with family issues as well.
Actually his son puts on a great acting performance by starting off like a nerd who doesn't even know how to defend himself when a couple young boys give him a hard time by punching him and stealing his things, then becoming smarter and stronger through lots of training and eventually coming back to kick some school bully behind!
The majority of the film however, deals with a young kid from Oklahoma visiting Philadelphia that seems to be in dire need of needing immediate training to become a boxer, and is very insistent on Rocky being his trainer.
With Rocky's help, the kid elevates all the way to the top of the division... but as he continues winning and winning, he develops an arrogant attitude, hangs around the wrong people, and eventually this leads to a final showdown with Rocky himself.
I honestly thoroughly enjoy Rocky 5, and I recommend everyone watch it. Don't be surprised if you end up loving it just as much as the rest of the Rocky films.

Got all the Rocky movies and love them all. Other reviews will tell you about movie as I don't go into much detail. I either love it or not. Another one I will watch over but I do them from the first to the end. Rocky movies inspire me to exercise which I hate to do but will while watching the movie and using the treadmill at the same time.
