gonzo Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) I was pretty much bought up on fighting films. Not sure id allow my lads to watch the same levels of violence nowadays Blood Sport was the numero uno. Must have watched it 200 times. Could probably recite the whole film now.

Me and a mate of mine were allowed to watch all the Violent films by my Dad , we used to love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter barryk32 Posted August 16, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted August 16, 2020 I put it on for my lads not that long ago and videoed their reaction. When Drago gets floored my youngest lad jumped to his feet and turned around with his mouth wide open. It was brilliant then and is still brilliant now.

tomski Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 https://www.empireonline.com/movies/reviews/rocky-iv-review/ A homoerotic classic it seems. Thank you very much to the person that sent me this!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not in Crawley Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 loved it as a kid, still love it. Up there with Top Gun for me. The scene where he drives after an argument with Adrian "you can't win!" .... Apollo's funeral ..... Living in America with James Brown .... helping an old Russian farmer lift a cart before running up a mountain... Ivan "If he dies, he dies" Drago ..... There is nothing about Rocky 4 that isn't good. Best if the lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
