On February 9, 2011, ChicagoNow.com posted Ranking the Rocky Movies by Kyle Trompeter. While I don’t agree with Kyle’s rankings, he does make a good case for each choice… and there is a surprise or two in his list.
And for the record, here is how I rank them:
1. Rocky and Rocky Balboa. {Perfect bookends to the series]
2. Rocky III
3. Rocky II [Depending on my mood sometimes I flip positions on II and IV]
4. Rocky IV
5. Rocky V [While many fans really dislike Rocky V, I am thankful that because of it we got Rocky Balboa]
