Rocky IV
Rocky IV (1985), Sylvester Stallone:
The Rockies really do seem to follow a standard progression. This builds on the goofiness of Rocky III and expands the training montage/fight to epic proportions (half the movie, by my calculations). One thing I noticed is that they always seem to start the movie with clips from the last. I caught the beginning of V (which I haven't seen before) and sure enough, there's Drago. Maybe this is Stallone's masterpiece, all part of a grand ten hour affair. Maybe then he'd've kept the robot around.
9/15
