I am a sucker for a good romantic comedy. To borrow from boxing terms, this one is a total knock out (TKO). I've seen all the Rocky films and loved Rocky's dialogue and heart. It is funny to see that heart and drive and Rocky's distinctive way of talking re-imagined in the form of Ricky. Because of the Rocky connection, it was one my husband enjoyed as well.
Matt Markey delivers with an engaging, humorous script. It was great to have male protagonist for a change. As an actor, Matt Markey delights with his portrayal of the Rocky-inspired character, Ricky! I also loved Sabrina Bolin as Janie...Ricky's lady boxer friend turned love adviser.This clever spin on the often tired and predictable rom-com genre does not disappoint !
