Sylvester Stallone, one of the legends of Hollywood, is a living icon of the action genre. Known for his powerful roles and fighting spirit, Stallone has left indelible marks through his famous films. Here are three standout movies in his career:

Rocky (1976)

“Rocky” is not just a sports film, but also an inspiring story about persistence and determination. Stallone plays Rocky Balboa, an unknown boxer from Philadelphia with dreams of winning the championship title. The film won several awards, including an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, and it became the springboard that made Stallone a global star.

First Blood (1982)

This is the film that kicked off the Rambo series, where Stallone plays John Rambo, a Vietnam War veteran who returns home and faces the harshness of society. “First Blood” is an intense action film that delves into the psychological tension of the character and the disillusionment of soldiers after war, solidifying Stallone as a talent beyond action roles.

Creed (2015)

After many years, Stallone returned to the role of Rocky Balboa in “Creed,” a part of the Rocky series but told through the perspective of Adonis Creed, the son of his former friend and rival Apollo Creed. Stallone shines again as the trainer, Rocky, delivering a heartfelt performance that earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.
