This is a movie in which Tom Waits and Sylvester Stallone have a conversation.
Fight! - Stallone v. Schwarzenegger: A Rivalry of Muscular ProportionsStallone debuts as a director, but unfortunately, his first work behind the camera is nowhere near as great as his writing endeavors. In fact, in many ways, it feels like a mostly boring, uninspiring and poorly recycled version of Rocky without the charm, memorable scenes or characters. And a lot less boxing and more wrestling.I guess you can say Stallone is putting up some effort, or at least trying to recoup the magic from his first iconic character. There are a few traces and some little charm, but not enough to save the picture that, as many have pointed out, would have probably served better someone else who could have brought more energy. There were a few attempts at humor that I found pretty amusing, but I never laughed out loud. Specifically, the whole thing with the salami boi. Some of the fighting scenes are pretty neat, namely the last one with the water and all.All in all, I honestly don’t have much to say about this one. You can see there were some studios or producers messing around, but it's not the worst thing ever. If you can get past the Rocky of it all, I guess, as shown in the site’s profile page, you can probably find something to like here. I would just not rush to check this out.Fight! - Stallone v.

Sylvester Stallone has talked about how he was forced to edit a lot out of this movie by the studio. My question is why the hell did they not only let him keep the Sly-sung theme song in but also let it play over both the opening and closing credits?
