ROCKY 
(Comcast Free Movies) The real-life underdog story here is that of Sylvester Stallone, standing his ground until he could get his boxer movie made his way, starring him. It lends substance and subtext to the otherwise corny old story of the determined underclass warrior slugging his way to fame, riches, and dignity. You may think it won’t get to you, but it will. (PG; runs through July 31)
ROCKY II
(Comcast Free Movies) Sylvester Stallone jabs, counterpunches, and dances around the screen like a man possessed. The primal energy of his direction, script, and acting give this sequel a simplistic entertainment value. No art. No symbolism. No pretense. The boxing footage is stagey, the performances are redundant, and the script has holes big enough to shove your fist through. But it’s a lot of fun. (PG; runs through July 31)
