Rocky Balboa
I finally watched the final intallment in the Rocky movie series, Rocky Balboa. At first I hesitated because how good can the sixth of a tired-out movie series be? But then I read that Sylvester Stallone wrote this one and that he wanted the characters to go out on his own terms. That sold me.
Why? Because, I know something few people realize. Sylvester Stallone wrote the original Rocky motion picture screenplay himself. And not only was it his first major manuscript, he wouldn't sell it to any producer without a clause that he played the lead role. He wrote the movie for himself and in many ways, his life paralleled the movie's theme.
