Rocky II Ratings & Reviews
- 匚卂尺ㄥJanuary 26, 2025I've always felt like Rocky and Rocky II are kind of a part 1 and part 2 story and a great one at that. Rocky II isn't as smashing as the original but it's still a worthy sequel to a phenomenal film. Rocky II picks off right after the original with no time jumps and I thought that was great and seeing the final fight of the original was a nice refresher. Sylvester Stallone (Rambo Franchise, Get Carter) returns as Rocky and is fantastic as always, I was a little concerned when I found out that Sly was also directing the film, but my concerns where thrown in the trash when I saw the film. Pretty much all the stars return and I'm just gonna say that their performances haven't changed and everyone has still got it. The final fight in Rocky II was really really epic and I was on the edge of my seat, and I liked the whole struggle Rocky has as he struggles to get up, it was really suspenseful. Rocky II overall is a worthy sequel and a good continuation of the original, recommend it big time if you love the first like myself.

- Eric BakkeJuly 10, 2025Rocky II isn’t bad—it’s just kind of stuck in a weird spot in the series. It doesn’t have the originality or raw emotion of the first Rocky, and it doesn’t hit the high-energy drama of Rocky III or IV. Stallone’s performance is solid, but it doesn’t feel as dialed-in as what he brought later in Rocky Balboa. The biggest issue? It drags. It’s not terrible, but way too much screen time is spent on Rocky's domestic issues. By the time we finally get to the big rematch with Apollo, the fight feels almost rushed—like the movie suddenly remembered, “Oh yeah, this is a boxing film.” It’s not top-tier Rocky, but it’s worth watching if you’re going through the series.
