I've read the previous posts, and there are some of you who simply don't understand.  Rocky is History.  I am 34 years old, and remember watching Rocky with my Dad when I was just a kid.  For the rest of my life, every time I went running I could not get the Rocky Theme out of my head!  He was an inspiration to me as a child, he (Rocky) being a good man who champions over adversity.  Now Sly is 60 and comes out with another movie.  He has done a great thing in that he has inspired generations, and the magic I experienced as a child might continue even now with this new film.  Are there cliche's...yes.  May there be some problems with the script...Possibly.  But that doesn't change what he is doing, and let me tell you, life is full of dissapointments.  The previous Rocky (Rocky V) demonstrated this perfectly.  In this movie he continues with this theme, and will hopefully overcome.  So all of you nay-sayers should take a closer look at what this movie is all about!  Just as in the original Rocky the no-name club-fighter rose to conquer all odds, Rocky is again doing the same in rocky VI.  It is just that the circumstances are different.  I think we all need a hero, and if Rocky isn't good enough for you, then tell me who is?  He is the working man's champion, and an inspiration, so F#%& Off.
