I cannot stop my fists while I hear the theme music of Rocky. Rocky, the legendary icon of the American Movie, stills hit the heart of audience with his blood and sweat and most important –his will.

The spirit of Rocky is the key of the success of the whole series of Rocky movie. The symbol of will and courage impresses every audience from Rocky I to Rocky Balboa. No matter how tough are the competitors, Rocky faced them with unbeatable heart and endurance. This is the message that Stallone wants to tell us.

Life is full of challenge, and you can never predict how deep you will be “hit” and “hurt”. But you understand they are unavoidable, so we have to face it as Rocky said “It is not how hard you hit, but it is how hard you can get it and keep moving forward….”

Although the movie has not showed us the end result of Rocky, I believe Stallone wants us to keep Rocky lives in our heart forever.
