One of the best slapstick comedies ever made. It's a riot from the first frame to the last. Absolutely brilliant comedic script and underappreciated acting work. Some scenes can be regarded as the funniest in the history of cinema.
Just too notch all around.

Like, there are comedies that still manage to have a sobering message or a poignant moment. But not Rocky IV. It is 100% focused on making you laugh every single second. Only Airplane!, The Naked Gun and It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World compare in this single-minded dedication.
But Rocky IV is more relentless and ruthless. Its only mission is to make sure you have at least one instance of involuntary urination.
For me, the absolutely funniest scenes are Rocky's friend dying, the entire Siberia sequence and the Russian translator. I nearly died. Amazing.
