FEEDBACK: ROCKY II (1979)

I’ve always been a fan of the Rocky franchise and post wrestling has given me a reason to revisit it. I think the second film often gets forgotten for the more iconic rocky 3 and 4, but it starts to set the stage for what the series would become. All in all an enjoyable watch. Stallone was great at playing a loveable underdog, Carl Weathers looked like a world beater, Burgess Meredith made me think that I could eat lightning and crap thunder, and Paulie scared me every time he opened his mouth with his solution to everything involved smacking around Adrian. 3/5
