FOR ROCKY

L.A. Times Archives

As a part-time film buff (no T&A; pics or shoddy slasher cinema), I am in somewhat of a quandary as to what I should do about the latest Rocky movie.

Am I to shell out six bucks, grit the teeth, put my gag reflexes on hold and admire the latest in the art of manipulative, jingoistic film-making of the Reagan ‘80s, or refuse to patronize this shallow Hollywood holocaust of hollow-headedness?

No, wait . . . forget the whole damn thing! I’ll wait for the video and rent it for a buck.
