Slow start but it picked up and the comeback story was great!

loved the boxing action!

Typical Rocky movies

It felt like it had a checklist of moments it had to include in this film and it checked them all off. The lead felt spoiled and I felt more for the antagonist Viktor Drago by the end of the film. It was weird. I should have been pulling for the Good Guy but was saddened by the hardship he & his father had to deal with. If Rocky through in the towel, the story would have had the weight it needed.
