The most triumphant sports-drama franchise in history returns with a new look in "Rocky IV: Rocky vs. Drago." After more than 35 years, director/writer/star Sylvester Stallone has revisited and reshaped the fourth entry in the Rocky Balboa saga. The film famously pits The Italian Stallion against his most formidable opponent: Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren), a towering Soviet terror who killed Rocky’s friend and mentor Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) in the ring. "Rocky IV: Rocky vs. Drago" emerges as an artist’s fine-tuning of a successful work, with never-before-seen footage. It is a fascinating time capsule of a moment in pop culture when entertainment echoed audiences’ feelings and fears — in this case, the nuclear-fueled friction between the U.S. and the Soviet Union in the 1980s. The film delivers the knockout punch Stallone envisioned for the film, letting audiences step into the ring one more time with an iconic hero.
