Rocky: Heavyweight Collection (Rocky / Rocky II / Rocky III / Rocky IV / Rocky V / Rocky Balboa) [Blu-ray]

I love watching the Rocky films, except for the fifth movie. Only the first movie is packed lots of extras. The rest are mostly bare bones. Great picture and sound quality.The first Rocky film is the only one remastered. The rest are in high definition.Rocky set the high bar when it came to fictional boxing films. They had great actors, action, music, but it's the Cinematography that stands out. The camera work, making the films look real, and the atmosphere.Rocky one is what the critics loved. But they also liked 2, 3, 6 and the Creed films. Four was a political film, and five made Rocky look bad.The soundtrack from the Rocky films were brilliant. Especially the fourth movie. I loved the music and bought the CD when it first came out.A small downside is like many people who bought the set, when you open it, the case is broken, Thankfully, I bought a third party Blu-ray six disc case and placed all the films and artwork in there.In the end, this Rocky set is a great collection of films to watch. I bought the collection for a low price.

I love all the old Rocky's and even the newer ones. I got this set at a very good deal and do not regret it. Fun movies to sit and watch when it's cold out.

Great movies and package

Excelente colección, muy buen sonido. la última película no cuenta con doblaje latino.

All of the movies are classics, so there's really no need to comment on the story, but I'll cover the video/audio quality as well as what comes in the package. Aside from the blurays and the character cards, there's a code that comes with them for a short featurette on the making of Creed (another phenomenal movie), but that's it. The code expires at the end of this year, and it doesn't offer any way to download it, so there's not much value to it, but I suppose it was a nice bonus.The character cards are all very high quality, printed on glossy paper and could make for a very interesting framed picture for a man-cave-esque sort of room, if one was so inclined. Admittedly I've done nothing with mine, but considering that there's really no other way to get them, it's nice to know that I have them if I ever want to do something like that.The video/audio quality on the blu-rays themselves are good, certainly better than their original copies, but it mostly seems like they just scaled up the picture and left the audio uncompressed. The color accuracy is a bit better than I would expect on a DVD copy, but it's not anything to write home about. The exception to this is Rocky Balboa, which was filmed digitally on high quality cameras where the first five were filmed on somewhat lower quality film (at least the first few, but all of them are somewhat grainy).I was disappointed to discover that not only do none of the movies come with a digital copy, in fact none of them work with Vudu's Disc to Digital software either. I was hoping for at least Rocky to work due to being Ultraviolet licensed, but none of them worked at all.

I bought this as a gift to my boyfriend because he's a huge fan of Rocky.He couldn't believe I had never seen it, but now I've seen them a few times and can even quote it! Great films, very inspirational.As for the actual product, decent packaging There is one case that holds all of the discs and a little plastic box that holds the case with the picture of Rocky on the front. I have it on my movie shelf and love when people notice it. Very good price for the full set.I've had issues with a couple of the discs not being read by my PS3. I just eject them and reinsert them a couple times and then it plays. This doesn't always happen and it's not with all of the discs, just 2 of them. They all have great picture quality in my opinion, and the noise during the first Rocky isn't loud enough to distract me. I hardly noticed it.All in all, I'm happy with my purchase and glad to have added this to my collection.

Great movie
