BD release shines in HD quality but falls short on extras and sound; 'Rocky' remains a classic, yet its Blu-ray disappoints.

Video: 38

Despite its age, 'Rocky's Blu-ray transfer shows marked improvements with vivid details, yet it faces criticism for lacking a full restoration, leading to inconsistent quality and muted colors.

Audio: 38

Rocky's HD audio mix lacks depth and feels thin, with underwhelming bass and hollow sound effects, despite clear dialogue and some ambient benefits.

Extra: 6

Rocky's Blu-ray release disappoints with no significant extras, featuring only a few trailers. Missing the rich content of the 2007 DVD, it hints at a future double-dip. MGM's lackluster approach deprives 'Rocky' fans of a deserved special edition.

Movie: 80

'Rocky' resonates deeply as a reflective, underdog story that blends Stallone's genius with an authentic and inspirational journey, transcending its boxing premise to touch on universal themes of perseverance and self-worth, while evoking a unique spirit of American resilience and aspiration.
