This is a TV movie about a high-school girl who has a problem with alcohol. It's not a bad example of the "after school special" genre, but it's mainly interesting because of the actors in it.

Mark Hamill plays the boyfriend of the main character. This was a couple years before Star Wars (and far, far away from the abominations that Disney would later produce).

Linda Blair plays the main character; she'd recently starred in The Exorcist, had been doing a number of supporting roles in films, and would go on to make a series of horror films.

Other actors of interest include Larry Hagman who had a number of other successful TV roles such as "I Dream of Jeannie" and "Dallas", and William Daniels who did the voice of KITT the talking car in Knight Rider.

Other than that, the "70s mood" abounds...

Rocky III holds a score of 66% rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes based on 44 reviews, with an average of 5.7/10. The film's consensus reads, "It's noticeably subject to the law of diminishing returns, but Rocky III still has enough brawny spectacle to stand in the ring with the franchise's better entries". ... Gene Siskel gave the film two-and-a-half stars out of four and wrote, "Sorry to say this, but there's not anything new in Rocky III, and we sit there wondering why it exists."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_III

OK, I'll tell you why it exists.

A. Hulk Hogan. Sure, the guy's made racist, homophobic, and pro-Trump comments. But this movie came out before any of that, and every second he's on screen is magic.

B. Mr. T. I pity the fool who hasn't seen him in action. Playing a character with as much personality as Clubber Lang takes effort, hard-earned skill, and raw talent.

C. Carl Weathers as Apollo Creed, teaming up with Rocky, lending him his boxer shorts, taking him to train in LA and dropping some fundamental knowledge including:

D. The Eye of the Tiger. The king of all training montage sountracks. If you're preparing for something and this comes on, you know you can't fail.

There's also a fun "Rocky being successful" montage where he goes on the Muppet Show and poses with motorcycles while Clubber Lang prepares to beat him down. And some great supporting roles from Burt Young and Burgess Meredith. Besides that, sure, it's a formula Rocky film but there's nothing wrong with that.

"Rules of Engagement" won a News & Documentary Emmy Award for Outstanding Investigative Journalism and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.

Tarantino is an edgelord, but the movie's got Steve Buscemi AND Harvey Keitel, and uses them wisely.

The film is regarded as a classic of independent film and a cult film[4] and was named "Greatest Independent Film of All Time" by Empire. Although controversial at first for its depictions of violence and heavy use of profanity, Reservoir Dogs was generally well-received, and the cast was praised by many critics.
