Give me Raging Bull any day
Yep Raging Bull is a great film,very gritty made in black and white a true classic.
Yeah, very different films. Raging Bull is the Greatest Boxing film ever, with the greatest Actor ever.
The Rocky films are fantasy and include one of the most wooden actors ever, but you know what? It's FUN.
Some Boxing fans take the Rocky films too seriously, they should take them for what they are.
Mind you, it totally makes me cringe and piss me off a little bit when Stallone is put into the Hall of Fame, and don't get me started about the Contender, when they're having lunch, him at one end of the table and Sugar Ray at the other , and he's holding court, telling boxing anecdotes, and the boxers are mesmerised!!!
Stallone the actor the contender was pure theater, add a bit of Sugar Ray commercialized trod it
turned out to be! polished and slick boxing for nice people.
Raging old Jake a twat great stuff how it was how it is ! Creed is all right if you like Rocky simple plot nothing to taxing for the masses.
Nothing wrong with Rocky films but Raging Bull is the boy for me.
