The Fight is good, the film as a whole is lacking

Rocky IV is not really a good film. It is a far cry from the original Rocky in about every way. It has some very bizarre moments like the robot for example, why was that in the movie exactly. The film really just sets up another challenge for Rocky with the Soviet Union contender played with a evil stare by Dolph Lundgren and poorly spoken for by Brigitte Nielsen. The film really is not good, but its montages still work well, and so does the final fight. It is not a good film in terms of really the story, and dialogue, but Stallone knows how to make a rousing montage and fight, and does it again making the film somewhat entertaining.
