I really liked the movie also. I was not too crazy about the first 78 Rocky’s, but this one was not just about the fighting, it was more about life. I loved the fact that Rocky had become such an amazing father and person. He was so giving and caring. Definitely a tear jerker. The ending was great and might I add, very inspirational. Too many people grow up to be bitter after being so well known. It’s nice to know that this was not the case with his character. We should all be so lucky to grow old that gracefully.

According to Stallone the movie has exceeded studio expectations grossing over three times the opening night estimates of (at best) $2,000,000 and doing so despite a harsh spell of winter weather. The film not only finished third in its opening weekend, grossing $12,540,000,[39] but eventually became Stallone's most successful starring role since 1993's Cliffhanger and the sixth highest grossing boxing movie of all time, topped only by Rocky I through IV and Clint Eastwood's Million Dollar Baby.

The total domestic box office gross for Rocky Balboa as of March 21, 2007 stands at $70,264,164 while the international gross stands at $76,890,848 making for a total worldwide gross of $147,155,012.

well from what i read, those steroids are legal in austrailia, but only if you have a license to posses them. so really the only thing he did wrong was not have a license to have them in austrailia.

yeah, but that's a simple mistake. it's like the laws we have here about going onto a plane. in different states it's different rules. so what we can carry with us on a plane in cali, might not be the same in arizona.

well roids aren't the usual topic for most when traveling. i guess i would classify it under medical, but i'm not sure. as for making a new rocky film, well he was unhappy with rocky 5, and felt it wasn't a approprite ending for the series. he wanted to go on a high, and not a low. so that was the main reason for making a new rocky film. i do agree roids are bad, and drugs in general is a bad thing. but at least it wont kill anyone but himself. it's not like he's drinking and driving like (paris hilton, nicole richie, lindsey lohan, britney spears). plus it's not often that he's in trouble in anyway, and at least some of his work has some substance to it. it's not he makes forgettable films like "mean girls". and at least he works. so i think people should cut him a bit of slack. at least he's not a mel gibson.

NO I COULDN'T MOVE ON WITH THIS. DRUGS ARE BAD. THIS ISN'T EVEN A COMMENT ABOUT SLY. THE WHOLE DRUG DEAL IS BAD FOR EVERYONE NOT JUST THOSE TAKING THEM BUT YOU KNOW THAT RIGHT?

okay so back to the rocky movie. i really loved this movie because it wasnt really about the fight..it was just i guess about life and stuff..you know?i like the ending because even thought rocky looses...everyone is still cheering him on and stuff. you know? like insinuating that winning wasnt important in that film. idk but like if i could have done the ending [haha yea right.] i would have done it a little bit different. like cus you know how it ends with the judges saying the scores and rocky going into the lockers and everyone cheering for him...well i would have ended it with the judges telling the scores and as rocky walked into the lockers...have the crown cheering frantically while the voice of the judges just fades away..making [us] the audience not knowing whether or not rocky wins...proving the point that winning wasnt important. you know? but thats just me.

i think that's a great idea for a ending gomez. now i wonder what's going to happen between him and little marie? are they just going to stay friends? will the be a couple? hmm i don't know.
