8 Continuity Flaws That Ruin A Film Series During A Binge Watch
8. Rocky's Son Ages Six Years In Less Than A Week - Rocky V
Rocky is about the life journey of a man that also happens to have some boxing in it. Rocky is the underdog who wins against the odds, falls in love, lets success go to his head and while he loses his fortune, his fighting spirit never leaves.
It’s good to binge the Rocky boxset every few years and get an overdose of manly feels, though Rocky V spoils the fun in more ways than one. Stallone famously hates it, and while fans have differing takes on which sequel is best – Rocky IV, obs – part five is universally considered the weakest.
Rocky’s son also undergoes one hell of a growth spurt. At the end of part four he’s seven years old, and at the beginning of Rocky V he’s fourteen, despite being set about a week later. This was so Stallone’s own son Sage could take the role, and while the logic is sound it’s mighty distracting.
