After seeing that ''Creed'' has been received well by those who've seen it I watched Rocky and Rocky II for what I now realise was the first time ever.
Very good films, I think I preferred the second one, I don't know if that's blasphemous to say.
Rocky 8/10
Rocky II 9/10
Stallone really does a good acting job in these films. For some reason I was under the impression he didn't show any decent acting chops until Copland. And Carl Weathers had great charisma as Apollo Creed. I remember from III and IV that they become friends and I'm looking forward to going back and rewatching those as I've forgotten how that comes about.
I'll stretch it out for a few nights though as I'm expecting to be kinda bored otherwise - thinking of skipping the pub this weekend, if I don't pay off Jabba the Hutt I'm a dead man.
