Rocky II has a waxy feeling, and it never comes to life the way its predecessor did.

It's entertaining enough, but Stallone would have done well to retire Rocky after his second outing.
05/24/03
Considerably less satisfying than the original Rocky, but head and shoulders above the later installments.

While cruder than the first film, Rocky II successfully drives its hero back to the underdog status needed to make the final fight as exciting and satisfying as it is.
04/17/01
A very good sequel even though the result of the climactic Balboa vs. Creed rematch is pretty much a foregone conclusion. This is where the series should have ended.

Sylvester Stallone's follow-up to his runaway success of 1976 is a little more threadbare in spots than the original, but it still has some conviction and spunk.

Top Critic...can't help but come off as the most needless installment of the bunch...

Rocky II is carried on the strong shoulders of Sylvester Stallone who puts in a stellar performance as a loving husband and a good friend.
01/27/04
Stallone's performance as a Philadelphia saint in a B movie physique leaves you undecided whether to gag or sob, but the final fight sequences make up for it; a full-blooded Hollywood finale reaching giddy heights of cathartic glee.
