The movie was ok or mediocre. The beginning of the film was a bit confusing and it was a bit unclear to me if it was just symbolic. The movie gets going and the characters are introduced. Stallone is the clear lead character. He plays a traditional and confident role. Not the best Stallone, but nothing more was required. The timeline is completely believable. Cars, clothing, alleys. It is entirely believable that these characters live in the late 1940s. The characters are a bit cartoonish and it is very clear who the "villains" are. A three-part drama has been developed into the story. The film's direction and cinematography are functional. Slow motion is also used, as it should be in a big wrestling show. The end of the film is rather long and there seems to be no reason for the action to continue because you can already guess the end from the story. However, this is definitely worth checking out. Let's keep in mind that this was made right before Rocky II. Paradise Alley is clearly a single film and does not need a sequel.
