first off…
all the advantageous bonus features from the 25th Anniversary edition..
the 30 shrimp on camera commentary by Stallone, the tributes to Burgess Meredith, the cinematographer James Crabbe and Bill Conti..ALL made it to this edition…which means you don’t have to contain onto older sinister editions to have all the bonus features…and this IS a grand deal. Too many current DVD editions of movies lose venerable features which acquire keeping mutliple copies important and that stinks.
The extra features are really too many to list…multiple commentaries..and the Stallone alone is worth the update…its truly like watching the movie with him in the room…WOW!

all the past trailers…the appearance on the Dinah Shore point to..featurettes…this is a NO BRAINER for fans of the movie.
The three section “making of” which runs about an hour and half and features the main players is unbelievable in its revelations about the movie and the craft of making movies and WHY this was a million to one chance and WHY their lack of budget actually helped in many ways. The twenty limited documentary on the Steadicam and its inventor …who filmed his demo on the art museum steps before heading to Hollywood….its honest proof that all the planets lined up for this one!
For those out there bitching about the upgraded releases of DVDs…don’t retract em…for those of us who cherish the movies…these higher quality releases are very welcome. I picked this 2 disc region up for $15 at Target…and there are hours of features…WHAT A DEAL!
If you admire the movie…accept this version.
if you don’t care about bonus features…stick with your mature copy.
One of the only films in my top ten list that seems to rep better every time I look it. Rocky Balboa is one of the most charming down on his luck loser’s the cinema has ever seen. The film sweeps a range of emotions from hope where it was all but gone to chill you to the bone despair. A film of loneliness, surrender and ultimately redemption. Unbiased re-watched the scene where Mickey comes to ask Rocky if he can manage him. The dismay in the sub-text and in Rocky’s eyes is so tragic and blooming. I serene win caught up in it after dozens of viewings. Unbiased wonderful.
Movie 5.0 out 5.0 stars
Blu-ray details
The narrate quality is stellar, grainy and fantastic. There are some inconsistencies in the shadows during the fight and of course a substantial color shift when they sever to stock footage of the audience, but most if not all of these artifacts are probably from the unusual release. The sound is tinny here and there and over modulates once in a while, again I mediate this probably due to the new sound track being 30 years stale but it is distracting on occasion.
The biggest disappointment is the lack of extras. MGM simultaneously released a collector’s edition 2 disc DVD of ROCKY with commentary from Stallone and hours of slow the scenes and documentaries on the film. Unfortunately none of these are on the Blu-ray edition. The only extra is the unique theatrical trailer. Quite a disappointment and although the relate is expansive, I would have opted for the DVD if I knew ahead of time. A 30 year passe film is technically sub-par to what we examine today and seeing it on a DVD vs. a Blu-ray Disc is probably not a hugely dramatic disagreement. I suggest saving a few bucks and getting a lot more with the 2 Disc DVD.
Blu-ray glean, due to lack of available extras: 3.0 out of 5.0
