Rocky Reviews Wanted - Blu-ray Forum

Only 5 user reviews for Rocky.

Is Rocky worth it? I love the movie and watch it once or twice a year. But is the PQ upgrade worth it?

I want to hear from owners of the Rocky Blu-ray.

i'm going to wait and hope a rocky box-set comes out. would hate to be stuck with an extra copy of rocky. i love the movie and all....

I would only buy a box set if it didn't come with Rocky V. Love the first 4, and Rocky Balboa was good, but Rocky V was just awful.

Watching how the kid treats Rocky plus the way his own son acts is disgusting.

I wanted to buy it when I bought Rocky Balboa, but a lackluster review of Rocky on another site staved off my picking it up. I would love to have the original film in my BD collection, but I think I can hold off until it's cleaned up, goes to $10, or I get really desperate. Btw, Rocky Balboa is great!

I love the Rocky movies but I have held off buying this one as I think there will most definately be a box set. I do have the sixth and it was fabulous. I absolutely agree with those of you who hate the fifth. All of them are awesome except the fifth. In fact, I watched the Rocky marathon on AMC HD the other day and watched the fifth since my wife had never seen that one and I hadn't see it in a long time. My wife agreed it sucked compared to all the others. I'll say this about the first one though concerning its pq, I know alot have complained about its pq on Blu-ray and I haven't seen it but the AMC HD version looked superb so it sounds like the AMC HD version looks way better than the Blu-ray version.

It isn't a huge upgrade , it does look slightly better then the DVD version but I'll agree with the others and say wait for the boxset with all six to come out. The quality just doesn't cut it.

Thanks for responding on the PQ. It's good to hear from someone who actually watched the Blu-ray.
