Amazing how Rocky movies never lose their charm - at least enough to watch the next installment. We've watched Rocky movies all our lives, and even the worst ones remind us of specific life periods; a fact which the franchise makes full use of. Imagine: after Apollo's son is trained by Apollo's trainer's son to go up against the son of Rocky's nemesis in Rocky IV (and predictably, loses), Rocky takes it upon himself to train him, again, to fight, again (wild guess to what ends). And we still watch it. Even Brigitte Nielsen repeats her three-decade-old throwaway role. That charming.
