The Rocky movies are a series of movies that follow the boxing career of the major character, Rocky Balboa (played by Sylvester Stallone). Rocky Balboa goes from being an unexceptional club fighter to becoming a respected champion.
The first Rocky movie was an acclaimed classic and has spawned five sequels, and an additional two spin-offs (Creed and Creed II). The first six Rocky movies were written by Sylvester Stallone, who directed four of them.
The first Rocky movie was released in 1976 and won Academy Awards for ‘Best Picture’, ‘Best Director’, and ‘Best Film Editing’. It also won the Golden Globes Award for ‘Best Motion Picture’, and many other prestigious awards.
Sylvester Stallone has also received Academy Award nominations for his portrayal of Rocky Balboa in the first and seventh movie.
The entire series has grossed over 1.5 billion dollars at the worldwide box office.
One of the most remarkable things about the Rocky movies is Rocky Balboa’s dogged tenacity. He may get beaten and bloody, but he’ll keep fighting until he wins.
