Good deal

Great deal for my buck, I never thought I could buy the whole set at this price new. December 30, 2007

You can't go wrong with a collection like this!

This is by far a collection every Rocky fan must have. You get five hard hitting knock out movies on everyone's favorite hero Rocky Balboa! I have spent a good part of the weekend watching them and believe me these are movies that get you into the action! Great knockout price too!! December 29, 2007

Timeless

There is never a boring moment watching the wonderful saga of Rocky and his growth through his charactar. It's wonderful to have the collection and be able to watch commercial free movies. You can't go wrong and the quality of the picture, and sound is remarkable! You can't miss. The only thing is, I wish they would have included the 6th movie "Rocky Balboa" in the collection. But, I digress, I bought it straight away when it first came out any way. December 26, 2007

The Three Stars Are For The Production, Not The Films Themselves

I love all the Rocky films as they all, in my opinion, bring something to the table. I'll agree that the original was the best along with the newest one (Rocky Balboa). Rocky II, Rocky III, Rocky IV and V rank in that order in my view.

Now, there are virtually no extras with any of the films in this set except for some promos from when the films were originally released. This set has only Rocky's 1-5 as well. Though it may cost more, you are probably better off buying them individually, especially when you consider that the first Rocky now has great extras as well as the recent Rocky.

I own this set along with Rocky Balboa but if I had to do this again, I would've bought the 25th Anniversary of Rocky along with Rocky Balboa and would've tried to find the others individually. Most stores sell Rocky 2-5 for about $5 to $10 a piece so overall, you'd probably get more for your money.

The films themselves are great. Just wished all of them would've had better extras because I am sure each one had some fun behind the scenes stuff! If you REALLY want the movies, then I'd recommend the new set coming out that has all six or buy this one and try to find Rocky Balboa on its own since some stores carry it now for about $10-$15 dollars.

The film series gets 5 stars but the production from MGM gets a 3 star rating from me. December 11, 2007

The Best Boxing Movie Series Ever Made!!

When this movie first came out it was big mainly with Italian people.
By the end of the series this movie had captured the hearts of all
Americans.
This is the best boxing movie series ever made, this is the movie that made Sylvester Stallone the superstar he is today.
Rocky will always be an American hero!!
I rate this DVD series a 10 from 1to10!! December 4, 2007
