CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Rocky (Sylvester Stallone) wants to fight again, but Mickey (Burgess Meredith) tells him that he doesn't have it in him anymore.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
By concentrating on character development with this first of several sequels to his Oscar-winning smash Rocky (1976), writer/director Sylvester Stallone earned critical praise that would desert him with the boxing saga's shallower subsequent chapters. Stallone returns as Rocky Balboa, a Philadelphia prize fighter enjoying his brief fame after nearly defeating world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers). When Rocky is offered lucrative product endorsement opportunities, his limited education and lack of sophistication quickly become an impediment to his future success, causing him embarrassment and his pregnant wife, Adrian (Talia Shire), a great deal of financial concern. Meanwhile, Creed is brooding over his near loss to a fighter he considers an amateur far beneath him and decides to goad a reluctant Rocky into a high-profile rematch. With the family resources dwindling and his pride wounded, Rocky decides that fighting is all he knows and makes the fateful decision to climb back into the ring once more with Creed to vie for the championship belt, despite assurances from all concerned that he will blind himself irreparably.

[@pwnranger3496]

this scene is my favorite part of the whole series. Shows so much. Rocks pride gets hurt, so he gets a tad disrespectful. Mick, a former boxer himself, answers in a way Rocky understands. Great scene

In the first film, Mick throws Rocky out of his locker, then comes calling when he gets a shot at the title. This time it's Rocky coming to Mick, who would rather protect him than jump at another chance to be part of a big fight. This scene cements how close they've become.

[@joshschaeffer3300]

And then mick comes calling again. Apollo pissed Mickey off something awful putting Rocky down.

[@johnbertrand7185]

Meredith steals every scene in this movie, and has some of the best lines as well.

[@ikyda1]

Very few boxing trainers would have that conversation. They allow an broken man to fight just so they can get there 10% of the purse

[@jpx8793]

Yes, because he didn't want him damaged beyond repair. Mickey was simply being realistic. As he put it, Rocky had the "heart, but not the tools." In other words, that means his training had gone stale, and he was out of shape?

i feel like rocky saying "oh yea, we'll maybe its you who dont got it no more" was one of the few times rocky broke character, went away from his genuine demeanor, because he was disappointed. the smack was not only for the disrespectful comment, but for mickey to prove a point. mickey actually cares about him. such a damn good scene.

[@joel8583]

Mickey just had to do it to wake Rocky up!

[@jpx8793]

I agree. By saying, "You got the heart, but you ain't got the tools no more," I think that means basically (the latter half of that statement), that Rocky was physically in no shape to be fighting Apollo Creed, and his training had gone stale.

Rocky 3 and Creed were the best films. I wish Mick had more screen time but Duke and Apollo really took over and after they were gone, Michael Jordan did phenomenal as Apollo's son.

[@swaggy6122]

Xilo Channel don’t ever compare Creed to the original Rocky series.

[@CaminoAir]

Whether you're a big fan of the sequel or not so much, I think Stallone did a good job of writing the sequel (developing the situation Rocky was in during the first film). If there had to be a sequel, then he made a lot of good decisions.

[@1981lashlarue]

This was a rare good sequel. Until Rocky Balboa, it was the best sequel and came the closest to capturing the heart of the original. What made this sequel work where so many fail is it actually continued the original story instead of repeating it.

[@JaimeGirl]

The thing about the character of Mickey was that he was a lifer in boxing. It was established in the first movie that Mickey had seen it all from both a fighter and a trainer’s perspective. He had probably seen many fighters who were past it get badly hurt trying to hang on or get one more payday- and he knew the damage fighters take fight after fight. He himself had been pretty badly hurt in his fighting days- he told Rocky the story of how one opponent punched literal holes in his face because the guys gloves were doctored. Mickey had seen the beating Rocky took from Creed up close, and he knew that fighters like Rocky that have a ton of heart but not a lot of pure ability always get hurt against guys like Creed, who was the champion for a reason- he was the best in the world, period. Rocky looked to Mickey like a father, and you can see how hurt he is that Mickey doesn’t seem to have faith in him but it’s really Mickey having to give him a hard dose of reality- like a father would a son he loves and wants to protect. The chemistry and acting ability that Stallone and Meredith brought to these two characters and their relationship was incredible, and in many ways it’s the very heart of the first three movies, in some ways even more than Rocky and Adrian. Rocky was the son Mickey never had, and Mickey the father Rocky never had. Watching the relationship develop and grow from frustration and anger at each other to that bond was Stallone’s best writing. Stallone always has great ideas and writing, but so many wind up on the cutting room floor. Watch the deleted scenes from any of his Rocky and Rambo movies and you wind up saying, WHY didn’t he leave that in? Even the Creed movies- his deleted stuff is poignant and adds so much to the story, but it’s like Stallone cuts it to put in the rah rah crowd cheering scenes because he has an eye on the box office. It’s good finAncially, but it’s a loss to reputation, because Stallone would be known differently if he just trusted himself artistically more

[@EricaEchos]

And don't forget Bill Conti's incredible scores. The Rocky theme is one of the most popular and instantly recognizable themes in film history. His theme for Mickey simply brings me to tears.

[@PeekaBooo24]

Plus we see the transformation of Rocky from boxer to trainer from the Rocky franchise to the Creed one, yet not exactly in the same personality like Mickey.

[@Korijenkins1414]

Idk, Lang didn't really punish him nearly as much as Drago or Creed. He sorta just gave up when fighting him the first time, then obliterated him the second time like he was one of those montage fighters from the start of the movie.

[@We_Are_Borg_478]

​@@Korijenkins1414 Lang wasn't in the business of punishment, despite his claims. He was special in that not even Ivan Drago and his "1850 psi" punches could drop rocky in the first couple of rounds. . Personally I think Lang actually hit harder than Drago, but even if that isn't true, Lang's hooks were surgically placed to knock fighters unconscious.

[@huxleyable]

​@@We_Are_Borg_478 Also, I believe Lang was a stand in for Tyson, and like Mike Tyson, Clubber Lang runs out of gas in a couple of minutes, as strong as he is, if you tire him out he's done

[@We_Are_Borg_478]

@@huxleyable I agree with Clubber, and yes, any fighter tires out given enough time, but Tyson was an animal. He would definitely outpace Clubber, but only because Tyson is noticeably smarter when it comes to conserving his energy.

This is actually really solid. Several great scenes in the seond with great motivations. Micky is doing what all good managers do, protecting their fighter.

Much more realistic and less cheap.

[@scottaznavourian3720]

The fact is everything mickey said would happen in the rematch did happen Rocky was off...just as much because of his timing because of arldrian being in a coma as well as his bad eye....and Apollo beat the snot out of him worse then the first time....but the one line we overlook is 'yo got the heart' because other then the first fight with clubber you'd pretty much not only have to blind rocky but kill him to knock him out...

pretty much rocky becomes an unaging boxing god that gets better with age... before 30 lost 20 fights to bums... at 30 goes the distance against UNDEFEATED champ then beats him later beats a russian military killing machine by head butting his fists at 40 then going the distance at 60 against the champ in rocky balboa

Rocky gets slapped back into reality.By telling Mickey that he was wanting to go back into the ring to fight Apollo, Mickey had decided to end Rocky's fighting career by telling him that it's not happening.

We could see that for ourselves Sherlock

Wonderful scene. I think part 2 is just as good as first. One of the best sequels ever. Up there with Godfather 2. Or the " I won but didn't beat him" scene.
