A good movie

Sylvester Stallone does a good job with 'Rocky' and he writes the last third of it very well. Unfortunately, the last third is good but isn't helped by the first two thirds.

The movie focuses on a boxer Rocky (Stallone) who really just spends plain simple days in Philadelphia. You barely seem him box in the movie at all but Stallone's performance is pretty good. The first two thirds were just plainly obvious. But to my surprise, the last third was brilliant! The last third featured the classic 'Rocky' music and some impressive boxing (although there is boxing at the beginning, most of this movie hasn't any fighting at all)

Rocky fights against his apponent Apollo (Carl Weathers) and they don't even care about the results which is actually one of the best endings ever. In 'Superman', I was disappointed by the lack of Superman, although Clark Kent (Christopher Reeve) is in most of the movie, he hardly ever appears as Superman. In 'Rocky', I think the same, although Rocky is in 99% of it (if not 100%), he hardly boxes.

'Rocky' is good but did it really deserve the Oscar for Best Picture?
