The Story Behind Rocky Is Being Told As a Film

Images & Screenshots

Summary

The film is an electrifying true story about an unknown actor with an unshakable belief that he wasn’t just meant to write Rocky—he was meant to be Rocky Balboa. Told “no” at every turn, Sylvester Stallone bets everything on himself, holding the line on playing the lead against seemingly impossible odds. The result is the ultimate underdog story behind the ultimate underdog movie.

I Play Rocky Review

great

The story of how Sylvester Stallone came to write and star in Rocky is given a very unsubtle yet still quite effective and engaging biopic that positions Stallone as the genuine Rocky of cinema.
