Sylvester Stallone directing Kevin Connolly in Rocky V

Sly Stallone showing Kevin Connolly how to throw a punch in Rocky V.
RIP Sage Stallone

[@Cjusto1]

I don’t care what anybody says. I Love Rocky V. Loved it when it came out! Still love it now! 31 years later. It’s Raw. Rocky goes back to where he came from, he’s got nothing but his pride and family! Real life kind of shit! I still remember seeing the commercials for it when it came out. At 10 years old, I couldn’t fucking wait to see it.

Nel lontano 1990....🙁

[@dougmasters4579]

Agreed. I saw it in theaters when i was little. Kicked off my appreciation of all things rocky and stallone. The street fight was epic and the father-son plot had a lot of heart. Not to mention Tommy Gunn was a cool character, cruelest movie betrayal since Fredo.

[@felipehernandez-pedroza8288]

Me too. It was the first Rocky movie I saw in theaters and I loved it. I still like it more than Rocky IV.

[@trevormarshall8553]

If you watch the deleted scenes, it kinda redeems itself in a way too

[@brandonlee7382]

The are all great films

[@Ron-im6mj]

OMG It looked like Stallone really hit him. He has some fast punches..

[@mercatorjubio3804]

I thought the same. He really knows how to do it. I once read, he also taught Cameron Diaz how to punch for "Angels" when they casually met in the gym. I guess there is noone better to learn screen fighting from than Rocky himself.

[@sirbrad4]

Yeah after you throw tens of thousands of fake punches you get good at it lol.

Imagine Kevin Connolly accidentally really punched Stallone’s son in the face Stallone: “Hey you knocked him down, why don’t you try knocking me down now”

They definitely need to release behind the scenes footage of Rocky 5 and maybe even do a director's cut.

[@samuelosler1994]

The director, John G Avildsen is dead, so hopes of a director’s cut are small

The whole world hates 5. I love it so much.

[@PsyllyCymon]

These movies helped me through the toughest times in my life. Mr Stallone will have no idea the effect he had on me. I hope one day my wife and I have the opportunity to visit Philadelphia. It's a bucket lister for sure.

[@AngeloR674]

My first time seeing this behind the scenes of 5!

[@HealthHorror]

I'm surprised no one has posted the first 2 seconds of this and made the world think Stallone used to punch his child from anger while directing. 😀

Even Stallone said Rocky 5 didn't work because he made it over dramatic with Rocky losing everything. Also he wanted Rocky to die. Studio said no because to this day Stallone doesn't own the rights.
