I was interested in seeing this movie if only because the Angry Video Game Nerd used this as the film he would review upon challenge by the Nostalgia Critic. I had certainly never heard of this before and it makes sense. I find it amazing that I could find more than one VHS cover of this awful film. What really makes this movie painful is that it's one of the shoddiest looking movies I've seen in my whole life. The lighting effects are outright terrible. Everything is filmed in the dark and the quality looks like it was made in the 1960's, not the 1980's! This was released the same year as the B-movie "Alien From LA" and that movie looks gorgeous compared to this. Basically, this is a feature length spoof of "Rocky".
I guess this was the time spoof movies were the worst things we as humans ever made. This is basically a lengthy sequence of unfunny unrelated scenes that amount to nothing. There's a subplot about Ricky's girlfriend leading a rape therapy group. There's also an exploding doormat plot and a plot about some parody of "The Godfather" talking about porn. Not only does none of this have anything to do with Rocky, it has nothing to do with anything at all. There's one scene where Ricky mentions how his girlfriend doesn't like to see him box. We then see a photograph of her covering her face with her hand. Is that the joke? It's really hard to even tell if half the stuff in this movie is a joke or meant to be taken seriously. Either way, it's horrible and I am so glad this film has faded into obscurity and you will never be unfortunate enough to watch it. 1/2*
