Re: What Movies Have You Watched Recently?
I watched Rocky III on cable the other night. No great acting, but I like the fact that Apollo and his manager have the heart to take Rocky in and help him even though he has beaten Apollo in the past. I like the shots of Apollo and Rocky in the ocean, celebrating Rocky's overcoming of his emotional fears. Mostly, I like seeing white and black people who were formerly enemies coming together to work for a common cause and becoming friends. I think this is what I like most about Rocky III. This and, of course, the scene with Hulk Hugan (Thunderlips) where he calls Rocky a meatball.
