I hope you meant all his films lately have been bombs.
Because Rocky was an Oscar winner, he was given rave reviews for his performance as the overweight hick sherrif in Copland, First Blood was an excellent flick, F.I.S.T was good as was The Lords of Flatbush.
The guy has been a critical success and a box office success.
His Rocky films among others have generated impressive dollars at the box office.
Not every single one of his films were successes of course, but he has had a VERY successful career and did his job which was to just entertain.
Hell I even loved one of his worst rated films and that's the movie Oscar. Only because of what they tried to do and almost suceeded.
And that was to shoot a film entirely as it would have been shot in the 40's using nothing but backlot locals and street scenes.
It was silly, but entertaining and that's all I care about in the end.
