Sylvester Stallone is an actor, screenwriter, and film director. Stallone is well known for his Hollywood action roles, particularly boxer Rocky Balboa, the title character of the Rocky series from 1976 to 2008, and soldier John Rambo from the Rambo saga, which ran from 1982 to 2008. Stallone was born on July 6th, 1946 in New York, USA. Stallone had a difficult childhood after his parents divorce, Stallone spent some time of his childhood in a foster home in result of this. His parents divorce had a massive effect on him, as he got expelled from many schools, and ended up moving to Philadelphia where he attended a special high school for troubled youth. After this Stallone moved to Switzerland he attended an American college there. Then Stallone decided to leave and go to the University of Miami to concentrate on dramatic arts, in an attempt to complete a degree in New York and pursue an acting career, and this is what he did. My love for Sylvester Stallone stimulated from the Rocky series, growing up and watching a tall muscular, action man type actor which always showed the hero and big man in most films.

Favourite?:
Sylvester Stallone has been involved in some brilliant movies. One movie which I particularly enjoyed his role in First Blood. It was incredible to see great action in this film and Stallone playing the part as John Rambo in this film seeing him kill soldier after soldier in increasingly brutal ways. I really love how quickly things escalated and that's the main reason why I loved this film, the pure action just kept me on the edge of my seat and that's the best action films.
Stallone's role in Rocky as Rocky Balboa was fantastic. This film isn't just for boxing fans, it's much more than that because it's all about everyday life, and if you have a goal you want to reach you can get there with hard work, and I think Stallone's courage was shown in this, and how many gave up on him as a boxer, however he proved them wrong and got a crack at Apollo Creed for a world title fight, yes he lost, but this showed pure respect for him and his ability to go and get revenge in the Rocky series. Stallone fought for this incredible movie that made me want to go the distance and made me strive to work harder and not give up, this film also got me for the first time into boxing a few years ago, it was superb.
