I strongly disagree but thats IMHO.

i like this movie. Even tho the fighting sequence is still crap, this movie had heart. And i'm glad they made him lose by decision, that's the only plausible way to end it(ain't no 60 year old man winning no match). Stallone really knows the character he was playing.

Saw it, seemed very empty and contrived. Just Rocky not being able to let go, mostly.

i was pleasantly surprised with this installment. Going into the cineman i was expecting nothing but was given a nice expereince.

to me Rocky 1 & 2 are the best Rocky flicks. Nothing can compare with the unexcpected inspiration that the first one radiates. Rocky two feels like the second half of the first movie, and not so much a sequal.

I'm still undecided on the third movie. Everytime i watch it. I seem to have mixed reviews. Sometimes i like it and other times it just seems childish. One aspect i always like about rocky3 was the fact that Rocky actually learned how to fight. He diddnt just act as a punching post until he wore down his competitor. His style resembled a realt boxers. It was the only movie of the series he diddnt act as a brawler.

gorwing up 4 was always my favorite, but now it feels almost as silly as 5.

I give it a B-.
It didn't have the jazzyness of the older films but I think they ment to make it seem that way.
