It's my favorite Rocky movie exactly because of that aspect. 3,4,5 felt extremely emotionally distant.

Agreed. I love all of them, with VI garnering the most repeated views. Something is definitely lost on the OP

Going to just come out and say that if you think this movie is that fantastic, you obviously have bad taste. There are barely ANY redeemable qualities in this movie. No, you people are the ones who over-hyped this movie and refuse to admit it sucks. PERIOD. Watch the movie ten times if you have to, there are so many flaws and badly executed things, the movie should not even exist, let alone be considered the BEST movie of them all, come on LOL

Name a couple examples. I know it is not by any means a perfect film.

Sorry, I get a bit worked up sometimes on message boards Everyone is entitled to what they like.
Anyway, what I didn't like is that the movie felt thrown together with no real central purpose. Like in the original Rocky movies there was always some main big reason he had to do what he had to do. In this movie, it felt like a "I was bored so I wanted to fight again to prove that I still got it". In addition to that it completely ignored Rocky V and acted like he was healthy enough as an older man to go against a man half his age. There's more, but I feel like there were many elements that felt way too off.

"Bored and wanted to fight again"? What nonsense. He decided to do some fighting again in order to try and release the "beast" inside him, a.k.a the hurt from Adrian's passing. The fact that it became a fight against Mason was the promoters doing.
It was a lovely film, closer to the likes of the first Rocky.
And it never hurts to ignore Rocky V. That film was utter garbage.

So which Rocky movie (aside from the original, of course) is your favorite?

Oh please. Someone disagrees with you and the first thing you do is fling insults?

Okay, I watched it over 10 times and still like it more and more. What do you say now, jackass?

I think V is far more depressing.

How the hell can anyone keep watching this movie?
Easily. I put the Blu-ray disc in the Blu-ray player, plop down on the couch and hit "play."

there is no rocky movie that is emotionally detached..
he suffers bad lose in every rocky movie to some degree. especially in 3 and 4 that people complain about so much for apparently being "off course" so much in the rocky saga. and 5 well that movie lead to mostly how we seem him appear in the 6th movie.
