Rocky IV

When East Meets West, the Champion remains standing

Rocky takes on a vicious Soviet fighter who literally killed his last opponent! Sylvester Stallone writes, directs and stars in this war between nations in which the only battle is being fought in a boxing ring.

Rocky (Stallone) proudly holds the world heavyweight boxing championship, but a new challenger has stepped forward: Drago (Dolph Lundgren), a 6ft 4" 261-pound fighter who has the backing of the Soviet Union. This time, Rocky's training regimen takes him to icy Siberia, where he prepares for a globally-televised match in the heart of Moscow. But nothing can truly prepare him for what he's about to face – a powerfully charged fight to the finish in which he must defend not only himself, but also he honour of his country!

Critic Reviews:

• " [Stallone] creates credible villains worthy of his heroic character. " – Gene Siskel

• " The new film's narrative is stripped down to essentials, which gives it an emblematic quality. " – Jay Boyar

• " Fourth in series has lost most of punch " – Steve Crum
