What are Sylvester Stallone's greatest movies?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT From the Rocky and Rambo franchises to one-offs like Cop Land and F.I.S.T., Sylvester Stallone has starred in some great movies throughout his storied career. In an age when movie stars are becoming a thing of the past and franchise I.P.s are the new movie stars, Stallone is one of the last remaining bona fide A-listers who can bring crowds to a theater based on his involvement alone.
13 The Expendables 2 Between the promising original movie and the PG-13 threequel that killed the franchise, The Expendables saga peaked with The Expendables 2. Stallone reprises his role as Barney Ross as he leads the titular mercenary squad into a revenge mission against a dangerous rival bent on world domination.
10 Rambo After the first couple of Rambo sequels missed the point of the original and turned the character into a remorseless killing machine, 2008’s Rambo brought back the character’s reluctance to spring into action – and his penchant for political uproar. This movie sees Rambo accompanying Christian missionaries through the jungles of Burma and single-handedly taking down the ruthless militia.
7 Creed II Considering its gimmicky premise, Creed II is a million times better than it has any right to be. Following up on Rocky IV, it sees Rocky training Apollo Creed’s son to take on the son of Apollo’s killer, Ivan Drago, in the boxing ring. The movie takes the emotions of this grudge match seriously. Unlike Rocky IV, Creed II sympathizes with both sides of the conflict – not just Rocky and his vengeful young ward, but the disgraced Dragos, too.
