What it’s about: Five out of six films in the Rocky series will be added, so here are the synopses from Netflix’s website to get you started:
Rocky (1976): “Rocky is a small-time Philadelphia boxer going nowhere, until an unbelievable shot to fight the world heavyweight champion lights a fire inside him.”
Rocky III (1982): “After taking a beating from a powerful young fighter, humbled world champ Rocky Balboa turns to ex-rival Apollo Creed for help in regaining his form.”
Rocky IV (1985): “Looking to avenge his onetime rival Apollo Creed, Rocky pulls on the gloves again and flies to Moscow to face formidable fighter, Ivan Drago.”
Rocky V (1990): “Guided by his former trainer’s memory, a newly broke Rocky returns to his old Philadelphia neighborhood and mentors a rising boxing star.”
Rocky Balboa (2006): “As he mourns the loss of his wife and suffers from a strained relationship with his son, retired boxer Rocky Balboa seeks a new purpose in life.”
