Drama120 min
Sylvester Stallone is Rocky Balboa, a small-time Philadelphia boxer and debt collector whose luck changes when world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed chooses him for a title bout. As the fight shifts from publicity stunt to once-in-a-lifetime chance, Rocky trains under the gruff Mickey and grows close to Adrian, the shy pet-shop clerk in his off-hours life. Talia Shire brings a quiet reserve to Adrian, while Carl Weathers gives Creed the swagger and showmanship that make the matchup feel enormous before either man steps into the ring.
