Reviews
If not quite one of the worst sequels ever made, it's near the top of the list of all-time most disappointing sequels. Writer-director Stallone stupidly attempts to turn Tony Manero into a dancing Rocky.
So horrific are the musical sequences in this movie that you’ll swear you were having nightmares directed by Satan himself.
More like staying dead...a monotonous and unnecessary sequel that has all the grace and flow of a greased hog on rollerskates
