50 Stallone Movies Ranked From Best To Worst

28) OVER THE TOP (1987)

This movie of course was shit on by critics at the time and unfortunately audiences as well did not appreciate its manly greatness. It opened at number 4 on opening weekend and it went on to make over 16 million dollars domestically on a 25 million dollar budget.

I get the feeling more people over the years and specially Stallone fans have grown to appreciate it but it’s not as loved as other of his manly classics IMO, heck even Stallone has taken shots at it. But the movie has a lot of things that I love.  It was directed by Menahem Golan who along with his cousin co-owned and ran Cannon Films, a great supporting cast of characters played by Robert Loggia, Rick Zumwalt and Hardcore Wrestling Legend Terry Funk. Plus it had a great father-son relationship story, a great simple yet very effective underdog brought to life by Sylvester Stallone and a kick-ass 80’$ soundtrack.

There have been many, many, many sports movies that have been made and released over the years but only one can claim to be the king of the arm wrestling genre and that is the manly epic that is “Over The Top”

It’s not Sylvester Stallone’s greatest movie but in my opinion one of his most underappreciated from the 80s.

Mucho Macho
