Stallone Plays a Boxer in This One
Rocky VI??? This could quite possibly be the dumbest idea Hollywood has greenlighted since...Rocky V. Everything about this is preposterous. The idea that Rocky comes out of retirement because of a computer simulation in which he defeats the current champ. The idea that the champ would ever agree to it. The fact that Stallone is 60 frickin' years old.
Still, it does have the music. And the training sequences are cool, I especially like the line "Blunt. Force. Trauma." And he champs name is Mason "The Line" Dixon...neat. Stallone looks pretty damned good. Hell, Pauley looks good. "What's that from, the 80's?" "That's probably the 70's." Awesome.
OK, I'll be there opening night.
