Review:

My husband has been trying to get me to watch this series for years and I have zero desire to watch it. Every now and then he catches me though and we’ve now finished the second movie.

I couldn’t watch the beginning because seeing Rocky be stupid with his money was just too much. It was horrible. Then any time Adrian, Talia Shire, came on the screen it was super awkward because she was so shy. Between the two characters it was difficult to watch.

The fighting didn’t really do it for me. The montage wasn’t as good as the first but it was probably the best part of the movie.

I feel kind of bad for rating this movie at all because I seriously had no desire to watch it but whatever.

2/5
