My favourite Rocky so far. Its got Mickey, Adrian got more to say, Creed. Good story and what I found is these movies got a lot of heart. How Adrian broke him down on the beach just so he could build himself up again with the help of his friends is what he needed. Final fight is coming up. I don't even care if Rocky wins, he already has in my opinion.

There's a lot to cover in this review of my Rocky III rewatch, with a view to the arc of the character as a whole across the 8 movies. Let's get to it... - Stallone looks great. The chiseled body now that he was famous, wealthy and able to train with Franco Columbu - not to mention some fairly extensive plastic surgery and perhaps some training 'juice'.

Mr. T and Hulk Hogan in the same movie is almost too much. Still those are some of the best fights of the entire franchise. It took long enough for Apollo Creed and Rocky teaming up. That last shot is perfect.

Hulk Hogan wrestles Rocky. Mr. T is the main villain. Mickey, well, we'll miss him. Apollo went from enemy to close friend. It's a Rocky movie that you need to watch to follow the story of the Italian Stallion.

<B>"No, I don't hate Balboa. I pity the fool, and I will destroy any man who tries to take what I got!"</B> The Muppet show, Clubber Lang, Thunderlips, a Legdrop, fame, money, Apollo Creed, Eye of the Tiger, the band playing "Gonna Fly Now", two fights, I pity the fool and Rocky wearing the colors of Apollo Creed. I always thought we got Eye of the Tiger during a training montage but they open the freaking movie with it! I just love that song…
