"Rocky IV" is ridiculous. It's a 90 minute music video filled with caricatures, cringe-worthy dialogue and sequences, and a title character who is a shadow of his former self. In many ways, this was always going to be inevitable. How many times could you keep telling Rocky's story? After all, Rocky III really should have brought it to a close, but no, as it turns out, Rocky still has another fight; but given the impossible nature of the opponent this time around who literally kills everyone else he fights because of his intense strength and power, how is that Rocky can stand up to the pressure? Sure, he's the ultimate underdog but come on! Not to be completely unfair, this installment of the franchise is fun, but it's the type of fun where you're laughing at it, not with it. Given the history of the first film, and to a lesser extent the previous sequels, "Rocky IV" is a real joke; a comic book cartoon meant for kids or people who don't know any better (certainly Stallone should have known better given he wrote and directed this film!).
As with the previous films, "Rocky IV" opens with a recap of the final scenes of the previous film, in this case Rocky's victory against Clubber Lang. 'Eye of the Tiger' gets pumped out again through the soundtrack for good measure. We then open with Rocky and Apollo (Carl Weathers) enjoying retirement. However, a Russian amateur boxing team visits the US, with its head fighter Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren); they are keen for Drago to fight American champions and defeat them. It's their belief that the Russians create superior athletes and it's not long before Apollo gets it in to his head that he wants to teach these guys a lesson. But when the big exhibition fight between Apollo and Drago ends up with Apollo knocked out dead, Rocky gets personal; and he takes the fight with Drago to Moscow on Christmas Day to even the odds.
Aside from the Russian elements, which are truly dire, at least in the way the characters are represented and the us versus them motif is played out, this film is just a retread of previous plot lines; just like Rocky II, only cheesier and sillier. Mickey's death in Rocky III was tragic and moving. Apollo's death in this film is a gimmick, and an arbitrary plot point designed to inject a false sense of drama for Rocky and makes a mockery of Apollo's character. Ivan Drago is an impossible opponent; aside from his cartoony nature as an almost super human soldier, it's just impossible that Rocky, who is now retired and past his prime (which is even stated by Rocky in one of the opening scenes) can muster the physical strength needed to go the distance with him. Then there's the music video nature of this film; it's song after song after song to the point where you're wondering if you're actually sitting back watching MTV or you're watching a film. But the worst element of this film has to do with the treatment of US-Soviet tensions. Made during the 80's when the Cold War was still hot, the idea that Rocky could somehow bring these two sides together is presumptuous and silly, highlighted in Rocky's clumsy and misguided final speech in the climax. Or maybe it was seeing a wannabe actor playing Gorbachev rising to his feet at the end and clapping Rocky's speech that did it in for me.
"Rocky IV" is a silly film that denigrates the franchise, despite some fun moments.

Fantasia Mickey Mouse Sorcerer Maelstrom Artwork $6579.99 Mickey Mouse's magic powers go awry! Incredible Walt Disney Signature Stone mosaic from Fantasia. Wall art measures 36-inches wide x 27-inches tall. Limited edition of just 25 pieces worldwide! In this Walt Disney Signature Stone Fantasia Mickey Mouse Sorcerer Maelstrom Wall Art Mosaic Film Frame from Disney's Fantasia, Mickey Mouse attempts to be a sorcerer, but his magic powers go awry and he finds himself in the vortex of a giant whirlpool. A limited edition of just 25 pieces worldwide, it measures 36-inches wide x 27-inches tall. This amazing mural is inspired by materials from Fantasia. Marble/Stone by Artwork Partners is the forefront of the modern renaissance of Pietre Dure - the ancient technique of using cut and fitted stones for murals. It's made from highly polished, fine-quality, natural and synthetic materials. Semi-precious stones and sumptuous woods and leathers were used in production of the mural. Each Walt Disney Signature Stone mural is a one-of-a-kind original in an incredibly limited run, due to the exclusive nature of the materials and the process used to make these stunning works of art. Pietre Dure is a mosaic technique or more specifically, a type of stone marquetry that originated in Rome and later reached its zenith in Florence, Italy in the 1600s and 1700s. It's sometimes called Florentine Mosaic. Marble and many other types of semi-precious stones are carved and cut into small pieces. These small pieces are fitted together with no visible interstices (joints between the pieces) to make a painting that depicts landscapes or other subjects from the world. The texture of the stone mimics that found in nature: clouds, mountains, or leaves and flowers. Pietre Dure also means hard or durable stones. |
