My grandfather passed away 2 years ago and I remember watching this scene with him when I was a kid and he told me that Mickey looked like his father. Every time I see this scene it brings tears to my eyes and remember the good memories I had with him. Miss him every day. He was the only father I ever had.
My grandfather passed away in 2020. He loved watching the Rocky movies with me. I understand how you feel. The memories keep him alive in my heart and the fact that I know I'll see him again.
That brought me to tears. My 7 year old son is called Mickey. Whenever I wanna quit life, when things get tough, I'm gonna hear those words because he loves me, and I'm going to do better for him.
That pointing thumb mannerism reminds me so much of my late and beloved grandfather, and it tears me apart always, when I watch this truly masterpiece of acting. Very touching and so transparent.
@ This is the one decent scene in the entire misbegotten film. Even Stallone admitted V was abysmal and he was ‘negligent’ in its making. Its main virtue is sparing the need for any expo at the start of the sixth film. ‘Hate bandwagon’ is a sulker’s retort and therefore worthless.
I guess the message here is to let Rocky know that no matter how many fights he loses at the end of the day he needs to be a fighting champion who never gives up who always has the last fight in him
My dad passed away in 2020, and he was even a minister… But this clip was not only from one of his favorite movies, but he would say this type of thing to me in different ways my whole life! My favorite was “boy, get up. I raised you better than that”. There was something about his certainty in those words that didn’t hurt, but rather empowered me when I didn’t think I could go on. And rewatching this just makes my dad’s voice sound so real… as if he is speaking through Mickey! Love this scene so much!!!
This movie use to be my least fav growing up but rewatching this movie years later as an adult and former competitive athlete in wrestling and mma ,,, man this movie is my fav of the others
Of so many inspiring films,this scene has to be the best. Mickeys honesty is so powerful and accurate. " nature is smarter then people think" Thank you Burgess.
It's really hard for me to always watch this video and not cry, because it reminds me of my dad, he was and will be the only one who supported me in practicing martial arts while the rest of my family only made fun of my humble dream of being . a martial artist, I would have liked to hug him more and talk to him a lot more, he was my best friend, and I miss him a lot, how it hurts me to know that I will not see him again, it hurts a lot, I never thought it would hurt so much to lose a loved one, It is the most immense pain I have felt in my life...hug your parents a lot, it really hurts a lot, I hope you share a lot with them and have a long and healthy life, I would give my life for his, to see him new...
Wow Burgess Meredith is a FANTASTIC actor he’s always good at playing your emotions this scene although yes I wasn’t alive when his career took off or even 1990 when he passed he’s always held a place in my heart for tackling life you gotta be strong and push on giving up never gets you anything or anywhere….. Sad scene probably of the whole franchise to me always makes me cry I’m a grown man and man this reminds me of good times with my Dad and Rocky wish he had more time to spend with myself and the rest of my family….. Always makes me sad in a way knowing it seems like he doesn’t want to 😢
With Wrestlemania in Philly this year where this movie took place, imagine with AI/modern technology that WWE could re-enact this scene with Cody and Dusty
I only wish I had a Mickey in my life .When I was younger. My life would have been totally different! 😢..Gus D'Amato told this to Mike Tyson! Just before he passed away 😢 😢
This scene was soo well written. We just don't see writing and acting at this level anymore. Quite sad really but always appreciated otherwise we would have nouthing to compare it too.
Grazie infinite per la gradita condivisione io sono solidale caratterialmente dalla parte della generazione che è cresciuta vedendo la saga fino a Rochy 5
Honestly Rocky 5 despite having some awful moments, this and the scene with Adrian in the street later in the film are two of the best scenes in the series, in a way you have to admire Rocky 5 for at least being brave at showing a harsh reality of what a lot of boxers have to Face after retiring, the depression and desperation of wanting the feeling of winning back again, with a few alterations rocky 5 could have been a great movie, the message was a strong one, and the message was "You can lose a round, you can lose a fight, you can lose your money, you can lose your career, you can lose your prime, but the one thing you can't afford to lose, is your family" it had such a strong message but the execution was all wrong
@@char-lee212Everyone knows it’s taken from Cus D’Amato. Doesn’t make the scene worse because of that revelation, in fact it makes it better, it was an inspired choice on the part of Stallone to replicate it on film and it worked beautifully. Rocky V is a rocky journey that often teeters on the edge of being just bad, but great scenes like this make it still worth watching at least once.
@@horrorfanandy4647 No, I'm sure not "everyone" knows it. Basically the whole movie was inspired in a way by Mike Tyson. Even Stallone himself regrets making this film. I love the Rocky saga but it was kind of corny for him to steal from D'Amato and not be original being an amazing mind for movies. But, I enjoyed the film myself. No hard feelings
My grandfather passed away 2 years ago and I remember watching this scene with him when I was a kid and he told me that Mickey looked like his father. Every time I see this scene it brings tears to my eyes and remember the good memories I had with him. Miss him every day. He was the only father I ever had.
He's the angel on your shoulder

My fav scene of any movie ❤
My gramps ..exactly... miss him..and his rough ways
😊
RIP Burgess Meredith (November 16, 1907 - September 9, 1997), aged 89
You will be remembered as a legend.
I have the same birthday as him.
Anybody here watching this having tears in there eyes 😭 anybody wants to see raw acting this is it. Stallone's underated
It's by far the best scene of Rocky 5...
Tears every time!
I just have something in my eyes.
No biggie.
RIP Cus D’Amato (the word for word inspiration for this scene) and RIP Burgess Meredith
Right on spot 👌🏻
"You see yourself doing right and you do right."
Priceless advice that applies to all areas of life.
this scene should have won an academy award
Awards do not matter. It's a celebrity thing for their egos. Old school actors just did it because it was their passion.
@@JeffPLut it won more, our hearts. !
3:00 The power in Burgess Meredith’s voice combined with the music! Absolutely spine chilling!
“And I’ll never leave you” That one hits the hardest for me.
Yea man, same here. For me it was "You was the angel". This scene never fails to get me.
"But with you kid, boy I got a reason to go on". Hits you hard!
That brought me to tears. My 7 year old son is called Mickey. Whenever I wanna quit life, when things get tough, I'm gonna hear those words because he loves me, and I'm going to do better for him.
Burgess Meredith last appearance as Mickey in the Rocky Franchise.
Really. I didn’t know that
he also acted in this scene while battling Alzheimer's.
@@wasabi5338 he wasn't diagnosed with Alzheimer's until 1995, his last acting role was in the 1995 movie Grumpier Old Men, great movie.
It's the worst rocky movie but the best scene in any rocky movie
They shot an alternate scene of him in the final fight where he's standing on the bridge yelling at Rock, instead of just using flashbacks.
I always cry when I see this scene. Burgess was a magnificent actor. The Rocky films are much more about life than boxing. Beautiful scene
Rocky is soooooo good and this scene is so heartwarming
Burgess Meredith was the angel of this series. The gruff, tough-love angel. What a sweet final gift from the legend.
Brilliant piece of acting
Inner strength ( heart/soul ) is where strong physical strength comes from. 🥊🥊
Now we lost Apollo 😭😭😭 RIP
I’m not crying!
Rocky’s story is aging like a fine wine. Thanks Rocko !
Best scene of this movie
Yes he loved him so much and Rocky too
This Scene Saves so Many Lives ❤
That was a really good moment. I wish all trainers were like this. All in 💯💯💯
Any mentor should be like that, if you're willing to put 100% and in, that they'll have your back
@@spartanhuntergaming yes sir. Correct 💯💯
This actually taken from the great legendary trainer Cus D'Amato.
@@char-lee212 Cus was special. He very good person also
@@JoseDiaz-yl9sh right on man
We miss you Mick ❤❤❤
Best scene in the movie. It ALWAYS brings on the tears.
That pointing thumb mannerism reminds me so much of my late and beloved grandfather, and it tears me apart always, when I watch this truly masterpiece of acting. Very touching and so transparent.
This part always gets to me. It's such a meltdown. 😢
😢😢😢
3:00 Love That Line
Burgess Meredith, maybe the greatest actor of all time. Great scene, genius
This movie has some moments that can bring anyone to tears
The very best scene in V…
And the ending too he helps rocky beat Tommy gun street fight
The ONLY good scene in V.
@@jonharrison9222"You knocked him down why don't you try knocking me down?" Was pretty good too
@@jonharrison9222Nope. There are many good scenes in Rocky V because the movie is good. Stop riding the hate bandwagon for this movie.

Mickey has been a big part of Rocky’s life, he was like a grandfather to rocky
Watching this 20+ years ago with no social media on an old crt was a lot more emotional for me
Mr . Stallone don ' t retire never
I swear Burgess Meredith as Mickey could motivate a man to run straight through a brick wall.
I’m 40 years old and this scene still gets me every time. It’s so true especially to my own life.
Watchin this video made me cry when she died and she said nature is smarter than people think
My dad passed away in 2020, and he was even a minister…
But this clip was not only from one of his favorite movies, but he would say this type of thing to me in different ways my whole life! My favorite was “boy, get up. I raised you better than that”.

I'm a 25 year old blues musician, former boxing champ.
My coach passed away three days ago and this scene's been hitting me like a freight train.
Sorry to hear that.
Burgess Meredith was exceptional as Mikey. That scene was golden!
*Mickey not Mikey
Great heartfelt scene.
I enjoy v more and more over time,it actually takes you back to 1990 watching it.
This scene is magical.
Brings me to tears every time I see this scene.
This movie use to be my least fav growing up but rewatching this movie years later as an adult and former competitive athlete in wrestling and mma ,,, man this movie is my fav of the others

Greatest line ever for Men
This was a real speech that inspired this movie scene 👏 🙌
By who ?
Cuz d mato to Mike Tyson.@@jamesharland5137
@@jamesharland5137 Cus D’Amato to Mike Tyson you can look up the video
@jamesharland5137 Cus D'Amato, said the same thing about his pupil Tyson
@@papaburner3330People have no idea this was stolen by Sly from Cus, and worse thing yet people have no clue who Cus was
I miss you jc ❤
My mom died this year & taught me the same lessons.
I just wish I'd learned them when mom was alive
This scene makes rocky v worth the watch
Imagine all the time that's gone by on earth and we got to be here during the Rocky series.
It's really hard for me to always watch this video and not cry, because it reminds me of my dad, he was and will be the only one who supported me in practicing martial arts while the rest of my family only made fun of my humble dream of being . a martial artist, I would have liked to hug him more and talk to him a lot more, he was my best friend, and I miss him a lot, how it hurts me to know that I will not see him again, it hurts a lot, I never thought it would hurt so much to lose a loved one, It is the most immense pain I have felt in my life...hug your parents a lot, it really hurts a lot, I hope you share a lot with them and have a long and healthy life, I would give my life for his, to see him new...
Be strong brother. Your dad is still watching over you. He's proud of what you've done. Love never dies.
He would be proud of you! I’m a dad myself and I would be proud!
“What happened to his other cuff link?” Such a Rocky thing to say.
Wow Burgess Meredith is a FANTASTIC actor he’s always good at playing your emotions this scene although yes I wasn’t alive when his career took off or even 1990 when he passed he’s always held a place in my heart for tackling life you gotta be strong and push on giving up never gets you anything or anywhere…..

RIP to Burgess Meredith he did a great job portraying Mickey in Rocky his character Mickey is very inspirational
👍🏻

This scene saved the movie. As much as I hate it I love it
I only wish I had a Mickey in my life .When I was younger. My life would have been totally different! 😢..Gus D'Amato told this to Mike Tyson! Just before he passed away 😢 😢
He was like my grandpa telling me to go after my dreams
This scene exemplifies what great cinema is! Master storytelling. Though I think the line was blurred a bit when he shed that real tear.
Rip Mike. Sly is a genius and he genuinely cared for Burgess.
This movie is life lesson
This needs to be shown to today’s generation! Proper moving this
Nature is smarter than people think. What a comment
best scene of Rocky V
And to think this man was the original Penguin in the 60's Batman show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Burgess Meredith was amazing in the Rocky movies
My favourite part of Rocky 5. What an amazing and emotional scene.
Rocky 5 was a great movie for me
Say what you will about V, this scene is great.
This scene alone is a true testament to the genius writing of Stallone !!!
Everyone wants to have a coach like him!!!
Imagine a jump rope from slystalloneshop that had Mick's voice growl: HEY I DIDN'T HEAR NO BELL each time you trip up
This Reminds Of The Sage Words of My Late Father Passing on His Legacy To Me
This will always be one of the hardest emotional scenes in cinema history
The best motivation scène
And we love Mickey
Back in the 90s I watched this and cried . I swear rocky 5 is so depressing
This scene makes me cry.
Very powerful scene....
Burgess Meredith was sensational as Mickey.
I feel l'm just as close to a friend l've got like Rockey w Mickey. This reminds me of my friendship w the good friend l have too 😊
Mye eyes again cry
Happy 50th Birthday Adrian !!!
To the best friend I ever had
I’m only here because of you…
My Angel..
Cowabunga! Cracking character Mr Goldmill "Speed we need Speeeeeed!" 🥊👍
Goosebumps
Best scene ever
Amazing motivation
This makes me have tears in my eyes cause Mickey is like my brother always that angel sayin get up I didn't hear no bell
I feel like that everyday
Best movie ever❤
Awesome scene man ❤

Powerful af
