Summary: I love this box set
Comment: I think this is one of the best box sets I own. I have watched Rocky I so many times I can say most of the words with the movie. I wasn't real thrilled with Rocky III, But being a Stallone fan, I had to have them all. I watch it alot and probally at some point will need a new one.
It was one of the best purchases I have ever made.

Summary: Good
Comment: This is good movie, but it is not the greatest sports film of all time. It works because it is a basic story about a guy who has been a loser all his life getting the opportunity of a lifetime to finally make something of himself. It also works as a love story between two people who basically are misfits finding each other and falling in love. The only complaint I have about it is that it is too basic a story and the characters have been seen in movies like this before. The main thing that saves it is the fact that even though Rocky doesn't win the big fight at the end, he still comes off as a winner at the end. However, the main thing that ruins this film's reputation are the endless sequels that came after it. If they had stopped at two, maybe I would accept this film as a classic.

Summary: Rocky - The Complete Saga
Comment: This saga is something that I always wanted ever since I saw my very first Rocky movie known as Rocky III. Although I saw it on HBO, I wondered if the other two were going to be on as well. So, I waited for years and years until 1996, when I saw the whole set up to Rocky V. After purchasing the set, I set up a week to be officially known as Rocky Week and started with Rocky. As I continued to watch them, I understood why it was known as best picture thirty years ago and the more that I watched, the better I like the story. The second Rocky was even better then the first and then, came Rocky III. However, Rocky IV was too brutal but, it did show that even boxing can be dangerous and it is even possible that someone could die during the match as Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) did. Then, I finished Rocky Week with Rocky V. For the next several years, I wondered if there will ever be another Rocky and then came Rocky Balboa. The sixth and final movie of the saga. I loved the end when the people of Philadelphia were climbing up the Rocky steps and imitating Rocky. Maybe someday, I can do it too. Rocky, I Love You!

Summary: Rocky Fan Forever ~~~~
Comment: I purchased this Saga collection for myself b/c I am a BIG Rocky fan. I have watched the movies over and over again on t.v. and when they were in the theaters way back, and I can watch them over again. S.S. plays a great Rocky, however, in the last movie, Rocky Balboa, I wasn't happy with it, it appears to have been made hastily and without alot of thought involved. I do not recommend the last movie only, the other Rocky movies, well, they ROCK !!!! I love them. but, judge for yourself, see if you like the last Rocky Balboa movie more than I do, for me, it was a let down compared to the outstanding other Rocky movies.
