As this past weekend I had a lot of free time, I could not think of anything other than to waste two hours of my life viewing Rocky Balboa. Yes, I know, what I could expect from this movie ... but the truth is that it was even worse than expected.
The whole film revolves around an old and retired Rocky Balboa who runs a restaurant where most of the customers go to hear his stories and take pictures with him. In general the whole movie is quite sad, showing an excessively old and sad Stallone who is only encouraged to think that he can do everything he sets out to do.
In the end they trick him to fight the world champion (a little boy with little pull) in a fight semi-friendly. For a change Rocky decides to train hard and bases all his preparation on increasing his strength, since speed is not his thing (normal, with his age).
The combat runs fairly evenly, you can see the typical images of his son encouraging him and in the end the champion wins by points. Logically for Rocky ending the fight is a triumph and everyone is so happy. The end result is hardly credible (the twenty-something would have blown it up in 10 minutes).
I said, 2 hours wasted ...
