Description of Rocky Anthology (Rocky / Rocky II / Rocky III / Rocky IV / Rocky V):
Beginning precisely where Rocky left off, the surprisingly effective 1979 sequel takes the saga of Rocky Balboa to its logical next step, as the palooka turned public idol and media darling returns to his "normal" life in Philadelphia with his newlywed bride Adrian (Talia Shire) and some degree of material comfort. He needs to find a job, but boxing champ Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) is challenging Rocky to a lucrative rematch, and despite his doctor's warning against future boxing, Rocky can't resist. Defying the odds that most sequels can't live up to their originals, Rocky II doesn't pack all the punch that Rocky did, but it takes us further into the lives of its now-familiar and beloved characters, and Stallone (as director and star) gives us another rousing finale in the ring. Do you really need to know who wins? --Jeff Shannon
Rocky Anthology (Rocky / Rocky II / Rocky III / Rocky IV / Rocky V) Reviews:
Rocky Collection 
2009-12-17 - I bought this collection for my grandson for Christmas. I guess the review is out until I hear from him. The seller sent the package quickly, and the price was fine.
Round 2 for the Italian Stallion. 
2009-08-21 - Rocky II starring Sylvester Stallone is a great sequel to the Oscar-winning classic. This film is a little too similar to the orginal - once again Rocky fights Apollo Creed who would later became close friends in Rocky III and IV. Talia Shire's character Adrian is not so uptight in this one, she really comes into her own as a woman. Rocky II is just a feel good movie, check it out sometime!
Rocky II (1979)-You're going down. No way! 
2009-07-13 - Rocky II (1979)-Rocky does it again in this great five star sequel. Made with many of the production values of the original and as entertaining as humanly possible.
very good 
2009-07-05 - Good DVD's collection, is going to be the gift for my brother's birthday.. I recieved it in few days.. I expect to wait for more than two week and in one week, I have it. I like the Rocky Anthology.
GOOD SEQUEL TO THE ORIGINAL 3 1/2 STARS 
2009-04-16 - I own the older box set with the first 5 Rocky films included in it. I wanted to write reviews for the individual films. This review is for the film and the older release DVD.
Interesting sequel, but it does feel as if we've been there before. Once the film get rolling you'll still be cheering the big lug on!
The DVD I own has a OK transfer, but there is room for improvement.
