Rocky Balboa is a Philadelphia club fighter who seems to be going nowhere. But when a stroke of fate puts him in the ring with a world heavyweight champion, Rocky knows that it's his one shot at the big time — a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go the distance and come out a winner!

— Critical consensus, summarised
The original underdog drama — won Best Picture and made Stallone a generation-defining star. Critics widely call it one of the great American films of its decade; the Bill Conti score and the meat-locker training are iconic.
