Product Description
After 30 years and six films, it’s time to ask ourselves, what have we learned from Rocky Balboa-Italian Stallion, comeback kid, and the single biggest reason tourists have spent three decades stampeding up and down the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum? Plenty, says this spunky little gift book with all the best quotes and most beloved images from the Rocky series, including the latest installment, Rocky Balboa! The same qualities that have made Rocky such an inspirational character suffuse this book with charm. Here we revisit all the villains, all the most exhilarating and uplifting moments, the heart, soul, and eternal optimism that make Rocky a champion, whatever the outcome. The first Rocky won three Oscars(R). Like Rocky himself, this collection is a gloves-up winner. Enjoy page after page of the life lessons that Rocky imparts throughout his unforgettable films. They’re captured here in a tribute to the man who-through perseverance, dedication, confidence, and optimism-rose from the streets of Philadelphia to become Champion of the World and a true American hero. As Rocky would say, “It ain’t all muscle, it’s all heart.”

Product Reviews:
  Rocky road ( rvm440 )
A little disappointing.I expected a little more of an in-depth narrative
format instead of "Rockyisms" that are quoted from the movies.
  Un bonito souvenir de Rocky Balboa ( roblagos )
"The Rocky Guide to Life" es un libro que recoge fotos y frases de toda la saga fílmica del boxeador de Philadelpia, Rocky Balboa.Aunque el titulo sugiere que se trataria de un libro de autoayuda,dista mucho de serlo, y el nombre adecuado hubiese sido "Quotable Rocky", mas cercano a la intención de esta obra. Las fotos son excelentes y las frases recogidas son atinadas, manteniendo el espiritu de la serie.No esperes encontrar nada mas que esto.Sin embargo, para un fan de Rocky/Stallone esto será suficiente. Seguramente, con el pasar del tiempo, este libro pequeño de tapas duras se convertirá en un raro y bonito souvenir para algún dedicado coleccionista del "Potro italiano". Sólo para fans.
  Not what I was expecting. 
When I first heard of a book called "The Rocky Guide to Life," I thought "Wow! Sylvester Stallone wrote a book about life through the eyes of Rocky!" Then I saw the author wasn't Sly. So then I thought, "Oh well, it's still a book about life through the eyes of Rocky. Says here with pictures and quotes from the movies. Neat."

So basically my idea was an actual GUIDE with pictures and quotes to use for comparison and referrence.

I was wrong.

As it turns out, the entire book is pictures from the movies with quotes. Nothing about this book is at all a guide nor does it talk about life. To say the least, I was disappointed. The quotes aren't always inspiring either. There are a couple that tell you to give up such as Mickey's "RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" or Clubber Lang's "He can run, but he can't hide!" and so on. Not exactly inspiring in my book.

However the pictures are neat to look at and I suppose if you pull a Jay and Silent Bob from CLeRks II (which means to ask yourself a question and then flip to a random page in the book for your answer, but you'll probably do this a few times before you get any sort of advice), then I suppose it's helpful.

Basically this is a great buy if you're a fan of the movies and want to see a bunch of pretty pictures.
