Rocky 洛奇

In November 1975, Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) is introduced as a small-time boxer and collector for Anthony Gazzo (Joe Spinell), a loan shark, living in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia. The World Heavyweight Championship bout is scheduled for New Year's Day 1976, the year of the United States Bicentennial. When the opponent of undefeated heavyweight champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) is injured, Creed comes up with the idea of giving a local underdog a shot at the title and, because he likes Rocky's nickname, "The Italian Stallion", he selects the relatively unknown fighter. He puts it in lights by proclaiming "Apollo Creed meets 'The Italian Stallion'". The fight promotor says the decision is "very American," but Creed adds it is also "very smart."

1985年，那時正是美蘇兩極爭霸越演越烈的年代，史泰龍自導自演的洛基系列也出到了第四集，這一系列影片旨在振奮人心、宣揚美國精神。這一集講述的是洛基（西爾維斯特•史泰龍 Sylvester Stallone 飾）的好友前美國拳王到蘇聯出戰他們研制的拳擊機械人，不敵對手最終身遭不測。為了幫好友復仇和維護國家榮譽，洛基決定再次出馬。出戰前，洛基進行了一系列精心的準備工作，他深入到大自然，利用自然的艱苦條件刻苦訓練。當一切準備妥當，洛基和蘇聯拳王―拳擊機械人的決斗展開了！

推薦理由：香港的影評人這樣說：“怎樣才 震撼？看看《洛奇》吧，由一個人的奮斗開始，事業越做越大。較之《第一滴血》又更勝一籌。”其實，《洛奇》講的就是一個小人物老套的奮斗歷程，看起來轟轟 烈烈又平平常常，卻讓你覺得被深深地打動，尤其在畢業前夕的那個前途未卜的夜晚。
