Rocky IV on Sony PIX channel

Happened to watch Rocky IV last night on Sony PIX. Very good movie, even though its 22 years now since its release. Good realistic potrayal of fights when compared to the superhuman stuff our Tamil movies are showing nowadays. Agreed it does not have a great storyline and some of the stuff shown are unbelievable (the stronger Russian boxer is shown losing to Rocky at the end), but it is still worth viewing once at least.

Apparently this movie was not a favorite with critics when it released in 1985, but it still made enough money all over the world to become the most successfull one of the Rocky series.
