Rocky V
Seconds out for the Rocky saga's final round.
Wisely choosing to retire Rocky from the main action in the ring, Stallone instead puts his mind to training newcomer Tommy Morrison to step into his shoes. However, big business risks getting in the way. Potentially much more interesting is the sub-plot of Rocky trying to patch things up with his son (played by Stallone's real offspring Sage), but this is handled with much less finesse than characterized the original Rocky. Odd that Stallone, who can be a great actor (as his performance in Copland illustrated), gives such wooden performances in the films that should be closest to his heart. Verdict The end of the line, and not before time. |
