Have you seen a movie that inspires you?, That’s what Rocky does. Rocky 

directed by John G. A Wild in 1976 is a sports, action, and romance movie that is about a 

boxer who is given the opportunity to change the low opinion people have of him. This movie 

was the key that opened the door to the new generation of fight movies and it brought 

some things that no one has ever seen on this class of movies. The cinematography is brilliant.

the push-in moments really emphasize the characters feelings at a specific moment. Every 

actor/actress that participated in this movie made an amazing jog bringing their characters to 

live and their performances was stupendous.The sound is absolutely amazing. Every single 

sound is in the right place and time when needed and one of the most famous soundtracks 

called Going The Distance was made just for this movie.

       This movie is about an Italian boxer who lives in Philadelphia and fights in 

underground clubs for money, and also works for a “Mafioso” called Tony Gazzo as a money 

collector, He felt in love with his best friend’s sister Adrian since then he went everyday until 

she also fell in love with him. A famous boxer called Apollo Creed is looking for someone 

that could fight with him, between all the boxers he chose Rocky because he liked his 

nickname “The Italian Stallion,”and he thought it would bring more people to the 

ringside. Rocky is given the opportunity to prove that he is not just a regular man or a 

warrior from the bunch, He is going to try to demonstrate that he is one of a kind. In the final 

fight you would see how a person is pushed to his limits and how the results differ from what 

was expected. 

       One of the most important and memorable moments of the movie is almost at the end 

when Rocky and Apollo are fighting and is the only moment from the movie that makes you 

feel what they felt in that ring. The sound on this scene was amazing because of how every 

tiny sound reflects everything needed at that very particular instant and how you could feel on 

the air they were tearing apart. Apollo thought that it would be easy or at least easier that he 

would show up and win, but Rocky didn’t have that on his mind, he kept pushing and pushing 

until none of them could resist no more. 

       I would recommend this movie to anyone that likes action, fights, and a bit of 

movies, but I would not recommend the movie to people that like really complex or 

developed stories. Two things about the film, one that I like and one that I don’t, the thing I 

like about the movie is the simplicity of how the movie is made , and how the director paid

attention to small details. What I don’t like is the lack of climax scenes throughout the entire 

movie. there were some moments but mostly at the end I normally prefer movies that 

distribute the action in all parts of the movie, but this one has something that just made me       

enjoyed it so you should see this movie at least once
