Review of Rocky V (1990) by Caleb E — 06 Jan 2019
Ironically, the entry that seems to back away from the exhausted formula is the one that seems to corrupt the franchise in cheesy, annoying and conventional-goofy ways, lacking the emotional effectiveness of Stallone's previous scripts, and adding a poorly ineffective directional comeback route from John G.
Avildsen, and removing the previous film's sense of passionate joy, never mind Richard Gant's obnoxious presence, this fifth installment has very few to genuinely enjoy.
