better than the 3rd film in the series
Rocky 4 is a better movie than Rocky 3 . there is more depth to the story .

as good as the original , with a few differences
this sequel to " Escape From New York " isn't half bad . it doesn't have the gritty , unpolished look of the original , and it's not as edgy . however , i did find it more humorous , and it's more of an action adventure movie , than pure drama , unlike the the original . the movie had a lighter feel to it . i didn't fi...

an important movie with a message
though this movie was released in 1951 , it's just as relevant today as it was then . it's about an alien who lands on earth , for reasons unknown at first . it shows the army and people in general panicking and acting stupid without knowing all the facts . but it's really a moral about how stupid humanity is , with ou...

very well done but should have been rated 14A ( in my opinion )
in this film which takes place in the 1950's , Dennis Quaid and Julianne Moore play your typical happily married couple . and then change . the film is about the intolerance and ignorance of the time , and also the hypocrisy in people's attitudes . Both Moore and Quaid are pitch perfect in their characterizations , and...
