It has been nearly 50 years since Rocky Balboa first graced the big screen — training for the fight of his life by pounding slabs of frozen meat, balling up his courage to ask out pretty-but-shy Adrian — but in some ways, the beloved character seems even further removed from the realities of the modern multiplex.
The comforting familiarity of this franchise is both its greatest selling point and its nagging limitation: We watch these movies because we know how they’re going to turn out. But the best of the bunch, whether thefilms, find new ways to get us invested — maybe because, unlike in the Marvel and DC flicks, Rocky and Creed are deeply human characters devoid of superpowers. They get older, they make mistakes, they hurt, and they bleed.
