Rocky – 20,400% Profit

It’s fair to say that cinema audiences always appreciate a good underdog story and a prime example of this becoming a classic notion is the film, Rocky.

There is no doubt that this movie is what made actor Sylvester Stallone a fan-favorite in Hollywood and brought him fame and fortune. It’s a wonder if you think about it. On a budget of just one million dollars, this film could’ve easily failed, but instead, it made almost a hundred and twenty million dollars and helped spawn one of the most successful cinematic franchises ever.
