AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

        Incredible is an oft used word in sports. Incredibly, the boxing story here is the saga of an individual fighting all odds in his brave attempt to have one final fling at the greatest heavyweight champion.

        Evenly balanced it turns out in the charged ambience matching the Madison Square.

        Three summers ago he had no future as a small-time shark in loan business.

        By a stroke of luck he gets his big chance to enter the boxing ring.

        A mountain he has to scale when the name happens to be the reigning champion.

        He is willing to fight it out, backed by his determination and the countless wishes of admirers.

        When Rocky happens to be Sylvester Stallone, action cannot be far behind.

        Not getting younger he has only tales to share with the patrons of a restaurant he owns. Time has taken a toll of the once well endowed shoulders.

        Heart-stopping moment it is when a computer simulation pits Rocky against Dixon. The boxer's manager - a smart cookie - entertains idea to commercially encash in the scenario.

        Rocky has nothing to lose, going hammer and tongs in the fight deemed as one of the century.

        A compromise in the end has a line of reasoning with the plot focused on Stallone's return to the character that launched his career.

        He has also doubled up as producer and director.

        This Rocky has enough punches to hold your interest.
