Rocky III (1982, Dir. Sylvester Stallone) Rocky Balboa has finally beaten Apollo Creed, and feels that he has nothing left to achieve. He plans to retire. Boxing brawler Clubber Lang becomes the Number 1 Contender, and wants his match with Balboa. Rocky is reluctant at first, but finally agrees to take on Clubber Lang. But things go from bad to worse, where Rocky's manager Micky unfortunately dies. Rocky must now train with his former opponent, Creed. Rocky now not just fighting for the title, but also for the confidence of everyone and especially of all, for Micky.I felt that the third addition into the 'Rocky' series was better than the second film but not as great as the original. All the original actors are back in the parts that we all love. Micky's death is really emotional for those who've watched the series from the beginning. The action is great and the training montage is amazing this time, especially with the wonderful 'Eye of the Tiger' theme blasting out. There are some humour and some sadness, but overall is a great 'Rocky' movie."Why are you doing this?" - Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) "Because you can't win Rock. This guy will kill you to death in three rounds." - Micky (Burgess Meredith)
