The original Rocky is iconic, and launched one of the most influential cinema franchises. Yet, this first installment is far subdued from what Rocky would become; delivering a smart edgy drama. It’s a quintessential populist story: down-and-out “everyman” Rocky Balboa gets a shot to go the distance with world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed in the Bicentennial Super Battle fight on New Year’s Day. Sylvester Stallone, Talia Shire, and Burgess Meredith all give strong performances (all Academy Award nominated). And, composer Bill Conti crafts a brilliant score that carries the soul of the film. Despite a few dated pieces of ‘70s style filmmaking, Rocky holds up as an extraordinary inspirational drama.
