Rocky II. !979.
After his match with Apollo, Rocky tries to adapt to modern living, while Apollo is getting hate mail about the fight being fixed and tries to coerce Rocky into a rematch.
Stallone brought a successful sequel to Rocky, with starring and doing the writing and directing, which follows the year from the fight to the big rematch with Apollo and starting a family and trying to find work and slowly becoming a nobody.
The acting from Stallone and Weathers is better than before with more tension from Apollo hoping to prove people wrong, Talia Shire does try her best to better but doesn't seem to given enough screen time. Burt Young does seem to be alot better as Paulie who still drinking and trying to be a better brother. Burgess Meredith returns as Mickey the trainer with a heart warming moment with Rocky in a chapel and shows he is trying to be a father figure in his time of need.
