Rocky IV (1985) | Movie Review | Fourth in Rocky/Creed Movie Review Series

I pity the fool? More like I WILL BREAK YOU! It's the era of Regan so what does Rocky do? He takes on the Soviet Union in the boxing ring of course! The Cold War is nearly over--Stallone's remedy? Knock out the Communists! In what some have called a propaganda film, the fourth installment in the series hits its biggest box office score of the franchise. But is this merely a montage, propaganda fantasy or is this actually the best we'll get from the Italian Stallion? 

 

Question after the show: Is Rocky IV truly the worst of the franchise? Or is the worst yet to come?
