Finding the worst movie
that is liked by many was hard for me. Usually when a movie comes out I will
listen to a review about it before I see it, so my list of bad movies is short.
After considering the subject for a Time though, a movie quickly came to mind,
Rocky. Rocky is a movie loved by many. It fails though because it falls short
of its purpose. Instead of inspiring us to try, it shows that we need luck to
win.
The Story is about Rocky Balboa, a boxer, who is just trying
to make it through life. He is very strong but not that bright. His is in a
rough spot and stuck there. Fortunately for him, the Heavyweight champion of
the world, Apollo Creed, needs a challenger and deigns to challenge Him. Once
people hear that Rocky will be Fighting Apollo, They all get behind him to help
and in the end he holds out against Apollo during the fight. He inspires
everyone in a classic rags to riches tale.
Rocky is not the role model he should have been. Anything
he got, he took with sheer Persistence or force, easily seen in his second job
as a debt collector. He was in a bad situation in life but he wasn't trying to
change it, he was just living there. The only thing that brought him to
greatness was luck. He started trying after his lucky break but in the end He
still couldn't beat Apollo Creed. Apparently Trying isn't enough, we all just
need to be lucky to become great.
Though Rocky is a highly beloved movie, It fails in its
purpose. There are many other movies that teach Better morals and inspire
people to try and rise higher. This inspires people to wait for fortune to come
to them, reminding them that won’t always work. That to me is why Rocky is one
of the Worst Movies.
