Story: Rocky Balboa, is a 2006 film about thirty years after the ring of the first bell. Rocky Balboa comes out of retirement and dons his gloves for his final fight; against the reigning heavyweight champ Mason ‘The Line’ Dixon.
Plot: The movie starts out with Adrian’s death and Rocky mourning the anniversary of her death from ovarian cancer. He reminds himself of all the good times he spent with her, and they show a Rocky I flashback of the places he saw Adrian (ice rink, pet shop, Rocky’s front doorstep.)
Meanwhile, Mason “The Line” Dixon is the best “pound for pound” boxer at his prime and wants a competitive fight; something that is really challenging for him.
Rocky, in the mean time, is running his restaurant ‘Adrian’s.’ Rocky’s son (Robert) is dealing with the struggle of having a father like Rocky. He sees his now 60 year old father signing autographs and he feels like he is living in his shadow. The little girl that Rocky walked home in Rocky I has a cameo in this film. Her name is Marie and she is the woman in the trailer who is having life issues. Marie has a son named Steps who is later shown ringside in Rocky’s corner during the big fight.
Rocky has the urge to come out of retirement from boxing and passes all the medical/physical tests with flying colors. Initially the boxing commission denies him his boxing license due to his age but with a little convincing, he gets them to grant him his wish. Paulie loses his job at the meat factory and decides to help Rocky train. Rocky also hires Marie to work at his restaurant to help her get back on her feet. In the meantime, Mason “the line” Dixon trains and is interested about a computer simulation fight showing Rocky defeating him if the two fighters were to meet in their prime. Two of Mason’s promoters come in to talk to him and then go to Rocky’s restaurant to ask Balboa if he would consider fighting Mason. With a lot of convincing Rocky decides he will participate in the “exhibition” boxing match. He feels that he has a “beast inside of him” from of all his sorrow after Adrian died. Rocky gives Robert an amazing heartfelt speech explaining the importance of being an individual and not to be deterred by the actions/thoughts of others. Robert takes his father’s advice into consideration and quits his job so he can help his father train.
Duke, Apollo Creed’s old trainer who later trained Rocky, is also his trainer in the movie. He tells Rocky to rely on sheer blunt force trauma to succeed in the fight. Rocky’s age is a major factor in this decision. The training scene is intense, with a musical montage set to the “The Rocky” theme song. Duke brings Rocky back to his old form and he even runs up the stairs in typical Rocky fashion.
The fight is located in the beautiful Las Vegas desert. While in the hotel, Marie gives Rocky a picture of Adrian to commemorate her memory. Rocky and Robert head towards the ring and in route they happen to run into Mason in the backstage area. He pulls the two aside and tells Rocky that he won’t embarrass him unless he cheap shots him. Rocky lets Mason know that the old man still has a few tricks up his sleeve and says, “It ain’t over, til’ it’s over.”
Spider Rico sends Rocky a prayer while Paulie tells him to release his “beast” as they walk towards the ring. Rocky’s ring song is the “Rubber Tree Plant” cover by Frank Sinatra which enlightens the older folks in the crowd. Soon after, Mason comes out to the ring, they hit fists and the fight is on. The difference between this film and the previous Rocky films, is that it’s more authentic. It is shot by HBO PPV with the actual live commentary. The atmosphere is electric and the two fighters begin their descent into the dark abyss.
In the first round, Rocky barely stays up but actually surprises a few people with a blow to Mason’s head. His luck runs out in the second round and he touches the canvas twice. Later in the fight Mason hurts his hand while landing a punch on Rocky. Balboa takes advantage of Mason’s miscue and begins his assault on the champion. Rocky knocks Mason down but the champ soon recovers. From that moment on the Rocky feel starts to kick in. The vibrant music plays and the rounds soar by with hay maker punches and blood flying across the canvas.
Rocky begins to punish Dixon during the closing rounds. The fight seems to be going his way but a hard right hand changes everything. Balboa touches the canvas and you hear Rocky’s voice in the background telling himself to get up and keep pushing forward. There is a brief flashback to Mickey (Rocky’s old trainer) giving him advice and Adrian ringside for his previous slugfests. It then shows Adrian’s roses on her headstone. The screen goes black. Rocky rises from the canvas and the “beast is unleashed.” He goes on a rampage with flying fists towards Mason Dixon. The two fighters go toe-to-toe throwing haymakers and the bell rings with both fighters standing. The Rocky theme music plays in a faster tempo and the crowd erupts for having witnessed the greatest fight of their lives. The boxers corners rush the ring and congratulate their fighters on a great match.
Rocky exits the ring with his corner men (music still playing) and heads toward the exit with the crowd chanting “ROCKY!” Mason stays in the ring and awaits the judge’s decision. Rocky heads out near the entrance and in the background you hear “…. and the winner, and still undefeated champion, Mason ‘The Line’ Dixon.” Rocky doesn’t stop and continues to shake hands with the crowd. The screen freezes on Rocky shaking a crowd member’s hand. This is symbolic with Rocky Balboa being “the people’s fighter.”
The final shot shows Rocky at Adrian’s tombstone reminiscing on how far they have gone. He went all the way and hoped she was happy. He believed winning wasn’t everything and just wanted prove his worth in life. He set out a goal, and did everything in his power to accomplish that goal. He then put roses on her tombstone and walked away. He stops for a brief second and you can see him wave to her. The screen fades to black and the credits roll.
Chronology: The film was presented in chronological order. This order helped make sense of the whole movie. In this movie it chronologically shows Rocky’s struggle dealing with the death of his wife. He has hidden aggression that he needs to release and does this the only way he knows how, which is to fight. This aesthetic method also gives Rocky the underdog status that makes any person want to cheer and root for him. The order of the film gives the audience a sense that they too struggled with him and want him to be able to accomplish the task of winning against the champ. We saw the struggles that he had to endure so that he could accomplish what seemed to be the impossible. Ultimately, in the end it wasn’t about winning the match but releasing the built up aggression so he could begin a new life. This was a part of the character development used in the storytelling method. If the film had a different presentation style, it wouldn’t have worked out as well. The general effect on the audience would have been entirely different. By using the similar plot as the first Rocky, as the underdog willing to win by any means; Rocky Balboa worked out as well as it did with the previous films.

Forget Marvel and forget the Fast and the Furious. The greatest long-running series of all time belongs to Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky films. Since 1976, viewers have followed both Stallone and the Italian Stallion through ups and downs that can only come with over 40 years of life and experience. Rocky is also a uniquely American story of opportunity paired with the determination required to become a champion at something. You have a lot of options when it comes to Thanksgiving binging, but keep in mind that pretty much everyone loves a good Rocky movie. If you can only watch a few, here’s how they rank. Even the worst of these eight films is pretty darn special.
8. Rocky IV
Yep, I’m making everyone mad first step out of the gate. But hear me out on this one. Rocky IV is a stupendous bit of ‘80s entertainment. You turn it on and the whole thing just flies by. Before you know it, Rocky has defeated Communism and won revenge for the death of his good friend Apollo Creed. It’s a blast.
The problem is Rocky in this film does not feel much like the Rocky Balboa we’ve come to love. He’s hardly a character at all. In fact, no one save for the immutable Apollo gets any chances for character work here. There is a bit where Rocky talks to Apollo’s trainer Duke (as much a series mainstay as Paulie or Apollo) that almost feels like a real movie scene but doesn’t quite get there.
Rocky IV is silly fun, a skeleton of a film held together through a series of montages. Candy is cool, but you shouldn’t make a meal of it.
7. Rocky V
Is ranking Rocky IV last blasphemy because it’s so good or because Rocky V is so bad? I’ve noticed many who hate Rocky V seem to do so blindly, having never seen the whole film or watched it too long ago to remember with much detail.
Let me fill in some blanks. It’s not great. Some poor casting and music choices keep it from being all that likable even. But it is a movie about the Rocky character in a way Rocky IV is not. Bringing Rocky back to the street level is a good decision, though much of the film feels like a superfluous dry run for both Rocky Balboa and Creed (if you love those films, Rocky V is kind of a necessary beast). I’d rather have this extra two hours with Rocky than not. And he’s a dumb chatterbox again!
Look, those Mickey scenes are extremely emotional. Seeing Sage Stallone act with his father is a big deal as well. And were it not for the bad (so, so bad) ‘90s music at the end, the film’s climactic street fight would be remembered much more fondly. Give this one another chance. You won’t love it, but you may learn to like it more than expected.
6. Creed II
Creed II’s main problems are all about justification. You can see why the generational story of Apollo Creed’s son fighting Ivan Drago’s son would be hard for Stallone the screenwriter to resist. It makes for a great poster, especially with all the people who might only know Rocky from Rocky IV.
But the narrative justification is not there for Adonis Creed. Why does he need to fight this guy? We never get a convincing answer. Viktor Creed’s lack of motivation is actually pertinent to his character, but Adonis frequently looks like a jerk in this movie largely because they never figure out what’s motivating him. In the meantime, the film runs through a mild remake of Rocky II and leads to a good training montage (which teaches Adonis new fighting techniques that barely get explained) and a solid fight. It’s not a bad film by any means, but too often it feels unneeded, existing more for the Dragos’ benefit than Adonis or Rocky’s.
5. Rocky II
It’s easy to cynically dismiss Rocky II as a redo of Rocky where this time he wins. And yeah, it is kind of like that. Deep down, we all know Apollo should have damaged Rocky beyond any hope of a rematch. But that’s not how movies work. And if you have to have a sequel, teaching southpaw Rocky to lead with his right is just wild enough to feel justified in movie-terms. He has the heart of a champion after all (so long as he gets Adrian’s blessing), might as well see him defeat Apollo, even if it defies logic.
But Rocky II is special for other reasons. It’s the last bit of “human” Rocky Balboa we’ll see for a while. It’s nice to spend more time with him in his youthful chatty meathead phase. And Rocky’s reason for returning to face Apollo makes sad sense: he can’t read and he blew through his previous winnings like a child with his first dose of allowance. He either fights or goes back to breaking legs for Tony Gazzo. Considering all that, it’s a blessing he manages to survive, much less win.
4. Rocky III

If Rocky is going to be an ‘80s cartoon, this is the way I want it done. Yes, Rocky is borderline smart now and has something like .2% bodyfat. He’s transformed from a street-level thug to full-on Stallone megastardom. He’s still Rocky, but you have to use your imagination.
That would be fatal if not for Mr. T’s incredible Clubber Lang, the most underrated character in the series. Of course Rocky’s movie tells us Clubber Lang is a villain, but you don’t have to believe it. He might not be very nice, but Lang is a truly independent challenger who trains and manages himself and rise through the boxing ranks without compromise. Meanwhile, Rocky’s in a mansion defending his title against hand-picked chumps.
In other words, this is a film where you really want to root for the bad guy. And until Mickey dies, there is no reason not to. The focuses then shifts to the only thing better than Clubber Lang: Rocky and Apollo’s training bromance. It is just too good, eons better than the Rocky IV montage everyone loves so much because it features a whole three-act arc within itself while also teaching Rocky something new that actually helps him in his fight (and that skill is, uh… how to actually box). Rocky’s rematch with Lang is the only non-montage fight for a reason. By the time we get there, we are more than ready for Rocky to put Lang down quick.
3. Rocky Balboa
Don’t ever laugh at Stallone. He’s at his best when underrated. In 2006, the idea of making an old man Rocky movie was a joke. Yet here comes Stallone, visibly aged and hurting from a long string of flops, delivering the second best film to wear the Rocky title.
Rocky Balboa takes what almost worked with Rocky V and simply adds a couple decades of loneliness to it. With Adrian dead, Rocky stalks Philadelphia like a ghost until a televised mock fight gets him back into one last big battle, this time to aver his own personal relevance. It’s such a small, quiet movie, a mediation on sadness and loss just as much as perseverance and strength. It would be overwhelming if Stallone didn’t structure it so well, building toward a quick but satisfying training montage followed by one of the series’ more realistic fights. Were you to just watch the first film and this, you’d have a perfect double feature.

2. Creed
Rocky Balboa The Best Of Rocky Rar Files Stored
Rocky is very much Sylvester Stallone’s baby. He wrote every film in the series and directed all but the first and fifth entries. With Rocky Balboa, he’d said pretty much all he had to say about the character.
That might have been the end of Rocky’s story, but then the greatest thing happened: a creative handoff to a young and hungry talent capable of seeing the character through new eyes. Ryan Coogler managed the impossible with 2015’s Creed, which simultaneously started a new franchise while offering a deeply respectful seventh entry to Stallone’s. Creed is very much a sequel to Rocky Balboa and yet yields Balboa to a main character who seems his opposite: cocky, smart and brash.
Creed succeeds for a lot of reasons, but a big one is the way Adonis challenges Balboa and drags him kicking and screaming into the 21st century, both in the text (“What cloud?”) and technique (that one-shot boxing match mid-film is a thing of beauty Stallone would never attempt), making a dusty icon surprisingly relevant once again. It’s a Rocky movie through and through, but also a masterpiece in its own right for a generation who might not even know who Rocky is.

1. Rocky
Not much suspense here. There’s no getting away from the original’s supremacy. And there’s also not much new that can be said about 1976’s Rocky. It’s not a cartoon, very little of it has to do with boxing, and it’s mired in a grimy realism the series would never see again. You could show it to anyone and they’d probably get emotionally caught up in Rocky’s story. It’s definitely going to surprise folks expecting Rambo with boxing gloves. No number of decades or sequels can dull the feeling of triumph Rocky delivers in its final moments. It’s one of those rare films that make you cry because you’re happy rather than upset.
