About this episode
The gloves are off on Vintage Cinema Rewind's long-anticipated review of Sylvester Stallone's star-making role: Rocky! It's a tale as old as time: a down-on-his-luck loan shark slash jobbing boxer gets a shot at the Heavyweight Champion of the World. As the prizefight looms, Blake and Michael take some time to examine the film's timeless themes, memorable performances, and iconic score. Can they go the distance? Or will they just end up punch-drunk?
