This film actually looks watchable, and it's getting some pretty decent reviews for a change. I'm all over it, and I hated the last one.
No word on when it'll hit the streets in Korea, at least not on imdb but when it does, I'm there. |

Absolutely! I've heard in this installment, they disregard V ever being made, so Rocky never got brain damaged, and never went broke. I love that. Sly basically gets a do-over. Don't think he will ever get a do-over on "Stop, or my Mom will shoot!" |

I downloaded it...Some websites have the MGM screener edition available....It wasn't bad...It probably would've been better with Ivan Drago, but all in all, the time went by quickly and I half-enjoyed it. |

Just finished watching it tonight, and for the fans out there, you won't be disappointed.
For non-fight fans, it would definitely help to watch the original. |

checked it out last night too. Good piece of nostalgia (sp?) The rocky theme still gives the same old chills and has alot less cheese this time around. I think it ranks somewhere around rocky 3 for me... |

As cheezy as the sequels have been, I grew up watching those movies. I certainly not waiting for the DVD. I'm going to see the new one at the theatre. |

Yeah, that would have been great. A rematch between Drago and Rocky. I'd put Drago a mafia boss who wants to use a rematch to boost his popularity in politics. He tries to bribe Rocky to take a dive. After some soul searching, Rocky decides to try to win. |

Sounds like a good plot but you have to work Clubber Lange in somewhere too. |

He gets killed by Drago in the ring at the beginning of the film. |

Two was pretty tight, and 3 jas mr T in it. MR T! gotta say this one shocked the crap out of me buy how good it was however.
And no way Drago could KILL clubber Lange, clubber lange should be his trainer and their combined forces should take on Rocky. They should also kick the crap out of homeless tommy gun on the street too with Drago yelling in unsubtitled russian something about how much rocky 5 sucked. |

No, but you don't get it. It ties in. Clubber also refuses to take a dive, so they dope his water bottle. In Rocky's fight, Paulie takes a sip (jocking that he thinks Rocky's got booze in there)and falls on his ass. Rocky realizes that it's doped and fights the match without a corner man. |
