Reacting to ROCKY V (1990) | Movie Reaction

[@dunringill1747]

Rocky V suffers a bit, but it is still ok. "Rocky Balboa" is next and it is one of the best IMO.

[@simondawe8774]

"Get up, you son of a bitch!! Because Mickey loves you!" is my alarm on my phone

[@jansenart0]

Burt Young, who played Paulie, was a boxer when he was in the USMC from 1957-59. He left with a record of 32-2.

[@jessediaz1293]

“Get Up You SonOfABitch!!…Mickey Loves You..” That one of the best of many lines in this series. The actor for Mickey came back to do those flashbacks and it’s some of the best emotional moments.

[@jesuspernia8031]

Not just the line, but that whole scene when Rocky goes into Mick’s gym is one of the best scenes in ALL of cinema history and nobody can deny that fact.

[@simondawe8774]

That's my alarm on my phone lol

[@GoatLuffy_97]

If this is the floor of the Rocky franchise than that floor is pretty damn high. I actually liked that it did some things different than the others. Of course the Rocky movies aren't complete without Rocky Balboa.

[@sanduvalahia5057]

Your laughter is contagious,i love the way you react to Rocky movies 😊

[@waterbeauty85]

Rocky's trick of pulling things out from behind Robert's ear is inspired by real life boxing great Muhammad Ali who liked to do slight of hand magic tricks for friends. He was still able to do them even when he was suffering from Parkinsonism in his later years.

[@bobapjok4241]

You knocked him down, why dont you try knocking me down.....My rings' outside.....I didnt hear no bell - iconic

That was Sly's real son Sage Stallone. He died at 36 from coronary artery disease . I always wonder how Sly feels when he watches this.

Dawn: "He learned that from Hulk Hogan" Me: "You mean Thunder Lips?"

[@louispaulter8733]

In boxing, a lot of fighters are taken advantage of by management, lack of knowledge on handling money, etc., and end up broke after being rich. The same happens to entertainers, rock bands, and so on. Sad but true.

[@tobygrimes9633]

Dawn's ring name " THE Bonny BLONDE BOMBSHELL" !!!

[@jimmywalker4884]

The real sad story is the real-life story of the actor who plays Tommy Gum. His real name was Tommy Morrison and was nickname, "The Duke", is based on the claim that he was a grand-nephew (or otherwise distant relative) of the Hollywood star John Wayne (né Marion Morrison). In 1993 he won the WBO championship and then in 1996 he had to retire form boxing due to be HIV postive. He passed away at the age of 44

[@ButteredToast32]

Sad he got mixed up in the life of partying and drugs. Great fighter but he had no discipline outside the ring.

[@JayT10200]

Robert is Rockys real legal name, George Duke even says it when he comes out of the limo "MR ROBERT ROCKY BALBOA"

[@SeanHunterMusic]

Despite the mullet, Tommy Morrison was a beast in this film 🥊

[@SuperBrooklynite007]

19:20 they’re very loud and passionate when they talk… that’s Italians for you lol 22:52 go for it was the tagline for this movie

[@madmick_beyond_thunderbum]

I process Powers of Attorney and yes, you give someone that access, they can do anything. Happens often

[@SavageGrace]

Tommy Morrison played Tommy Gunn, and he won the WBO Heavyweight championship against George Foreman in 1993. However, it all ended rather sadly and he passed away at the mear age of 44 in 2013.

[@rp8pi]

Morrison could have been great but he let the partying and wwomen take over. aids beat all those that took it on back then

[@artursandwich1974]

While a talented boxer, he was really a brawler and a hooligan. Probably an alcoholic and drug addict - with multiple arrests for DUI, drug and weapons possession. He had 2 children by the age of 19, at one point he was simultaneously married to two women (whose both first name was Dawn) and finally settled down with a third (Trisha). He died of sepsa and multiple organs failure in his final stage of AIDS (he had tested positive for HIV in 1990s, and later presumably tried cheating on tests). Had a few fights in MMA. Two of his children are professional boxers.

[@ChrisReise]

7:58 Best line in the movie (Not in the reaction): "You was the angel."

[@Thewingkongexchange]

Hoagies are sandwiches but more importantly that hoagie store is the same shop from the first film (I assume) - where Rocky tries to talk to little Marie about not-smoking, hanging out with "yo-yo friends" etc.

[@Cosmicfraud3209]

Hoagie is a Italian American sandwich that evolved into a subway sandwich grinders that you see today

[@evildano1313]

Tommy Morrison had one of the most vicious left hooks in boxing. RIP… his real life was more tragic than his character.

[@jasonward1470]

What's a hoagie? Growing up in Philadelphia in the 70s and 80s, It's almost all I ate lol. It's a sandwich, like a submarine sandwich. The Italian Hoagie is one of the most popular things in Philly. My baseball team even sold them for our annual fundraising. It was wasn't hard to sell them 😊 (Ham, salami, pepperoni, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and oil)

[@mattb8961]

Don’t forget the hot or sweet cherry peppers.

[@finishin.my.coffee8780]

Did you guys have the steak bomb?

[@artursandwich1974]

Yeah, Dawn, it does happen. Not very often probably, but kids can turn back when they see they are loved, noticed and important. I know it for a fact.

[@timeless_realm]

Great review as always!

[@bigbow62]

"Whats a Hoagie" It's a Grinder 😉 It's a Sub ......😉 It's a long sandwich 😁

[@biggeorge22]

I'm ready for Rocky 6!

[@finishin.my.coffee8780]

It got panned when it first came out. I remember hearing people talk about seeing it on opening day and walking out disappointed. It's not like the others but it's not necessarily bad. The flashback with Mick gets me every time.

[@dogsoldiertoo1099]

Tommy's real name is Tommy Morrison. He was the real deal fighter from 1988 until 2009 or 2010. One of the hardest punchers in the game. He died in 2013.

[@baronvg]

12:13 I’m hoping this was already explained on Patreon, but just in case, Robert was always Rocky’s legal name. Rocky is a nickname. So his son is legally Robert Jr and he goes by that instead of by Rocky.

[@marvinsarracino116]

"Get up you son of a bitch... Cause Mickey Loves ya" Best line Ever! ❤️ I miss Mickey (RIP Burgesses Meredith) thanks for sharing Dawn Marie ❤️💛

[@GrouchyOldBear7]

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.

[@tentoesdownchristianity]

Tommy was an actual heavyweight boxer. He could have been great but he had a terrible addiction to sleeping around with tons of women and got AIDS his life fell apart and I think he died at about 45 or 46. He had so much talent.... also that speech between Rocky and Mick is the best speech in all the movies even though this movie isn't as good as some of the others that speech is fantastic.

[@John--3-16]

Thank you for not skipping it I actually still like this movie & God bless 🙏🏾🤟🏾❤️😄

[@angelomaurizio1668]

Love the pullover, Oh Dawn! 😃 Onto the film that redeemed the franchise, it took placed 16 years after Rocky V. Enjoy Rocky VI (Rocky Balboa)

[@_M-_-C_]

Tommy (machine) Gunn was a great character, in real life, Tommy Morrisons life was sooo sad. He was an amazing, young, boxer. He was sooo good that (if i remember correctly) he was the only man that Mike Tyson IN HIS PRIME said he was scared off. Tommies problems was he got to much money and fame in such a small amount of time. He indulged in drug5 and s3x and that ultimately cost him his life at age 44 in 2013. (R.I.P Tommy Morrison)

[@waterbeauty85]

As cute and adorable as Dawn is, she's a brawler at heart (it's the Scottish in her), so these movies are perfect for her.

[@kirkperez5007]

We need more Adrian’s in the world

[@phoenixrivenus9270]

I liked the difference. Goes to show nothing remains the same.

The kid was his really son... Sage Moonblood Stallone died on the 13th July 2012 he was 36 year's old. from heart disease caused by atherosclerosis

it also ages better because the Rocky story does go on. at the time we thought this was the end

[@blackpatflynn]

i watched all your mission unreasonable reactions and they were great, so this is a nice change, but also continues your rocky journey which was very fun to watch. luv ya keep it up!!

[@Bat-Twenty-Two]

R5 may be the least regarded of the franchise but I don't think it's nearly as bad as its reputation. We see Rocky really step away from his role as a pro boxer. Adrian has her best moment since R3 on the beach. Mic the Angel. Rocky Jr. has good moments, and there are a pair of good villains here. I actually rank it higher than the next film. If you've got a problem with that, well, my ring's outside.

[@Mikeg73070]

Dawn, a “Hoagie “ is the Philadelphia area term for what you may know as a submarine sandwich or “Sub” . Here’s the information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine_sandwich

[@haunted_autumn]

Onward to Rocky Balboa (VI), my favorite of the series!

[@GregHansen-l5v]

You will like it Dawn. It is better than people say and it follows a story line leading to Rocky6. Have fun watching!!!!

[@BadWisdom523]

I’m relieved to see that in the future you carry on to the Rocky renaissance of Balboa and Creed

[@tonye4957]

Yes, more Rocky from Dawn!

[@Reaction-Addict]

Great reaction. There are lots of film franchise that have one like this.1st time you see it it can't possibly live up to the feelings you got watching the others but when you go back to it and see the story as a whole it fits in

[@notkg]

Part of the vitriol stems from the fact that, for 16 years, this was the series finale and, it wasn't a very good one. Now that we have Rocky Balboa (part 6), we finally have a proper finale and Rocky V now fits in better as an important chapter in the story.

[@user-wr9ej6xe4j]

Yep those earrings were a thing. I had one as a 10-11 yr old punk kid lol

[@mattb8961]

I don’t know why people say to skip this movie. That’s ridiculous. It’s definitely not the best but it’s still has its moments.

[@Fierysaint1]

Because Sylvester Stallone decided to use his real son for the movie. And Tommy Gunn was a real boxer from Oklahoma named Tommy Morrison who became a Champion after beating George Foreman.

[@yesfed2730]

Tommy was a real life boxer.

[@jasonward1470]

Yup, and he contracted HIV as well, if you recall. That was sad. Tommy Morrison had some talent. I remember watching a couple of his fights. The one that sticks out in my mind, was against Carl "The Truth" Williams.

[@orangeandblackattack]

They signed over control of their assets for Paulie to handle if something happened to them. So he could do what he did, it was a bad investment by Paulie then the accountant they hired embezzled their money. It can happen. Paulie shouldn't have done anything without consulting Rocky and Adrian.

[@angelohernandez6060]

Yeah, Slys real son and the same as a little baby used in Rocky 2. Remember the one with the full head of hair? That was him.

[@jediknightgeo]

I like that part 5 explored what would happen if someone of Rocky's stature lost all his money and had to start from zero. Part 5 gets a lot of hate, but it really isn't a bad film, at least, IMO. Is it the worst of the series? I'd say yes, but worst doesn't necessarily mean bad. It also has one of the greatest, most heartfelt scenes in the entire franchise (the flashback scene) with the always phenomenal Burgess Meredith.

[@dnish6673]

I think 4 is worse.

[@herrzimm]

I completely agree.... The "money issue" makes ZERO sense in this movie. Even if Rocky was in debt, his popularity would have EASILY secured not only some kind of "endorsement deal" for commercials, but PAID appearances to be a commentator at other fights. Not to mention they had to completely IGNORE all the deals that Rocky was shown to be involved with during Rocky 3 and 4 of appearances, promo-shots for products/magazines, and other commercials. It is like they FORGOT Rocky's popularity OUTSIDE of the ring in order to create a "conflict" that when looking at for more than 2 minutes ends up being a HUGE plot hole. Then again, Rocky 5 had the MOST "studio interference" so some "plot elements" were simplified just to put Rocky in a position of "having to knocked down".

[@paulhorgan6152]

Get on what It

[@moondog3056]

This is not a documentary.

[@MrSheckstr]

While its fair to point out that this movie is poorly written there is plenty of real life pro athlete “riches to rags” stories to make this plausible…. Rocky 2 established how difficult it was to fit Rocky into Product endorsement deals , and it should be considered that while Rocky Always kept a strong Hometown following that might not have had the same staying power in the NATIONAL boxing scene : 1 he is no longer boxing 2 possible blowback for going TO Russia to train, then possibly appearing to be a pro communist sell out at the end of that fight. 3 by that point maybe having his first championship being exposed because of the number of times Mick only approved for him to fight competitors he knew Rocky could win. 4 the Whisper campaign the “Don King” Character was running ruining Rocky’s reputation 5 possible backlash for his ties to the Mob…. 6 finally last point…. HE needed them, not the other way around

[@mikecronis]

The "dangly earring" was popular at the time, in-part because of the UK's "George Michael" music video "Faith" in late 1987 and became a fashion-trend. It was important to have the left ear pierced only for men, however, otherwise you'd likely be assaulted in most cities for being homosexual (right-ear piercing) known as "gay-bashing" intolerance. The mullett and earring were going out-of-style by the time this film came out except in some midwest slow-to-adapt communities.

[@ryanjacobson2508]

80's style hair didn't go fully out of date until around 1997, maybe even 1998.... For real! Just like some people still had 70's style hair well into the 80's. Fashion doesn't change overnight.

[@didonna1974]

After this the best is yet to come with Rocky 6 and Creed 1.

[@ChrisReise]

8:23 Actually it's Paulie's old house.

[@BearRava]

Rocky Balboa (Which is rocky 6) Is definitely a return to form and more closer to the original and a good ending for the original rocky films That's worth watching. Plus the creed films are a good continuation with rocky and a good homage to Apollo.

[@lmcgregoruk]

17:14 I guess that's one of Rocky's sons teachers, at least going by his drawings. Wonder if it's the English or French one.

[@ChrisReise]

I wouldn't say this one is bad...or not good...I would just say that that it's LESS good than the others. :)

[@mamalannightshyaman]

your face in the thumbnail said it all. Probably gonna skip this one but give a like and yada yada

[@Tr0nzoid]

This was meant to be a dramatic, gritty conclusion and a return to the original movie's environment. It was even rumored that Rocky would die in this, so that kept some people away. "Home Alone" opened the same day and was a huge draw with people seeing it again and again, overshadowing Rocky.

[@williammahoney8215]

23:42 The original script for this street fight had Rocky dying. Sure glad they decided against that idea.

[@MarkPriest-v6u]

Also..I wish people would stop saying the movie sucks..now when people watch it for the 1st time that have that pre conceived notion that its crap. Would be better and more pure of reactions if people just said....watch rocky 5..enjoy. then u get a true reaction.

There are many examples of famous people- athletes, musicians, actors- who made millions and then ended up broke. This is not all that unbelievable.
