Not only Stallone is impressive, Shire, Young and Meredith find perfect notes for their characters as well. Stallone gives such an impressive performance it is very hard to believe he is also the star of films like 'Over the Top', 'Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot' and 'Judge Dredd', and from the other 'Rocky'-films for that matter. 'Rocky' is a terrific film in every aspect. Rocky also starts dating the very shy girl Adrian (Talia Shire), sister of his friend Paulie (Burt Young).

They agreed, on the condition that Stallone continue to work as a writer without a fee, and that he work as an actor for scale.
