In a very saturated market place there are few TV shows that can really stand out like this one has for me. It is so refreshing to see a show scripted like this one that isn't afraid to be just a bunch of average joe's with very average problems. The true beauty of this show lies much deeper than the simple characters we are first introduced too, i.e. 1. car salesman 2. out of work actor 3. party store owner. It's about the bold undertaking of how a bond of three friends who may no longer have much in common can still stand by each other. They clearly are not happy in both personal and professional life and it is here where I look most forward to watching these characters grow and take that first bold honest step forward into admitting such.

I understand a lot of the mixed and negative reviews with the show being sort of mundane about these '3 average joe's' that we otherwise shouldn't really care about, but I strongly feel this is what separates this show from the crowd.

Kudos to everyone involved in this show, I truly hope we can watch these characters continue to develop into what I think will be a great story.

I normally never write reviews... in fact this is my first one.. and only doing so because the one i just read for this page was nothing but a blabbering rant of useless information, that did nothing to render an opinion about the movie.. Thus here's my little rant

I personally thought this was the best Rocky movie, because this is the first Rocky, (since the first one) to go into grave character detail.. I learned so much more about Rocky then I ever expected. And I am a die-hard Rocky fan!!! To see Rocky as a father figure, and watch his character throughout the movie without his wife, was simply amazing..

Also the speech he gave, when he attempted to get his boxing license was amazing!! and the one he gave Paulie, about "still having something in the basement" and the one he gave his son about "it ain't how hard you hit" were not only Oscar worthy, but just completely moving, and compelling.. it was the most "humanesque" rocky I've seen since the first.. however it out did that character by leaps and bounds.

I disagree very much with the previous comment.. I think the beginning of the movie was incredible, and absolutely important. It gave an in depth insight into just how great Adraian's death effected Rocky, and Paulie.. PS (I think Paulie played an outstanding role, and honestly should be considered for best supporting actor!)

The only thing I feel this movie lacked compared to all the others is the fight scene, although it was the best one yet, as for as being the most realistic.. was a little shorter then I had hoped.. other then that it's an instant classic, 10 out of 10 stars!! worth seeing more then once!!
