Sylvester Stallone returns to the director's chair for Rocky Balboa, the fifth sequel to the film that made him a superstar 30 years before. The movie begins with Rocky (Stallone) still mourning the death of his loyal and beloved wife, Adrian, who died three years previously after losing a battle against cancer.

I love the Rocky movies, I have since I was a kid. When this came out I was very excited to see it and I wasn't disappointed. It had a nice story line, in line with present times. The only thing I disliked was the lack of the Adrian character, she was missed.
