Another decent Rocky film though they're definitely tiring, has some of the series' best music.

“Rocky IV” is not the best Rocky movie, but I do think it is the most watchable. Come for the training montages, stay for the anti Soviet Union propaganda.

Come for the training montages, stay for the anti Soviet Union propaganda. The first half is pretty enjoyable to watch, but the second half doesn't really offer much that we haven't already seen done better in the other Rocky movies, but I did appreciate that the movie ends with a call for peace, where it could have gone all in on making the USSR an unforgivable monster. I give it a C, if you've already seen the best, but you insist on watching a movie, try this one out.… Expand

The fourth part has the same problems as the third part: ridiculous fighting scenes and a story and characters, that are not so interesting anymore. The idea to bring the fight to Sowjetunion is a very good one though.

Loving as the first three Rocky movies but the franchise begins to fall apart during this movie. At least it's better than averagely what the people think ----- Rocky V.

Rocky IV. Davaj Rocky! The weakest movie in the series. Apollo Creed from a sensible boxer becomes a jumping clown. Ivan Drago is a huge living log that fights and utters a couple of phrases for the entire film. Rocky alone has not changed.Rocky IV. Davaj Rocky! The weakest movie in the series. Apollo Creed from a sensible boxer becomes a jumping clown. Ivan Drago is a huge living log that fights and utters a couple of phrases for the entire film. Rocky alone has not changed. The only plus of this film is the final duel, but which also slightly resembles the fight from the first film.… Expand

Decent!it was little entertaining but felt repetitive as per story it was like same plot type with new threat and silly situations.the music was great,the acting was amazing the new Russian Boxer was like a Beast he's amazing,the Rocky jr wasDecent!it was little entertaining but felt repetitive as per story it was like same plot type with new threat and silly situations.the music was great,the acting was amazing the new Russian Boxer was like a Beast he's amazing,the Rocky jr was adorable with his tech things and the Couple were sweet and the Apollo he was emotionally great with Paul being Hilarious and entertaining,the starting scene was amazing the Robot and Paul's thing was hilarious then the whole new challenge thing from Russia just for Balboa felt like here we go again and then the Apollo's decision to fight in ring with silly little training and then the fight resulting in utter rubbish tragedy which wasn't that impact-full or necessary it was heart-breaking and emotional for a while as per prequel connections not for this **** 2 seconds of silence and tears it wasn't manged well he was iconic character.then the match thing for Rocky and Adrian's side the conversation and all it was good,then the press meeting fixing the date of fight in Russia at Christmas it was amazing,the training in Russia and whole journey with Paul talking about Hygiene and all it was entertaining and hilarious,the Duke's conversation and him as trainer was amazing the whole training sequence in Russia is pure iconic and awesome,the last act was intense and the fight at last just like all prequels it was awesome and amazing the punches and intensity beating the beast it was great,the whole Russia vs USA Rivalry thing was amazingly showcased with awesome satisfying speech at end by Rocky upon the nations it was amazing,the fight lasting long 15 rounds it was amazing and ending was satisfying.Overall it's sometimes like silly,over the top but entertaining its a decent Movie!… Expand

Not good.
Rehash all the other Rocky movies, throw in a cold war theme with a cliched villian and you get Rocky IV.

Although I like this movie, it's my personal least favorite of the Rocky series because it's the most unbelievable of the group. He runs up a damn mountain for godssake!

Siendo honesto yo crecí con Rocky IV, pero esta película es en muchos aspectos propaganda nacionalista, ademas la película se compone un 60% de montages, en lo positivo Drago como villano impone mucho, la pelea final es en mi opinión la mejorSiendo honesto yo crecí con Rocky IV, pero esta película es en muchos aspectos propaganda nacionalista, ademas la película se compone un 60% de montages, en lo positivo Drago como villano impone mucho, la pelea final es en mi opinión la mejor de toda la saga y la musica es excelente y se volvió icónica, pero todo esto no basta para ser una buena película… Expand
