Rocky V

The best thing to be said about Rocky V (Pearl, 9.30pm) is that it is the final Rocky movie. Even Stallone knew he had run out of predictable plots after this one. The most interesting thing about the film is that it stars Stallone's son Sage as Rocky's on-screen son. In the movie, father and son are estranged because Rocky allows himself to be put upon by an up and coming young fighter. Not only that but Rocky has lost all his money, and he has brain damage from all those punches to the head.

Stallone the self-made star - he wrote the Rocky movies as well as starring in them after all - has talked lately of re-packaging himself as a serious subtle character actor. It is certainly one arena where he is unlikely to face much competition from his long-standing rival Arnold Schwarzenegger. Why not straight, non-action drama for Sly? Why not even Shakespeare? British thespian Steven Berkoff, who performed a show at the Arts Festival recently about playing Shakespeare's villains, is one former colleague who thinks Sly would be marvellous.

The two actors worked together on Rambo II, Berkoff played the nasty Russian who gave Rambo that dashing scar. Berkoff did not have much to say about the quality of writing for films like Rambo II ('best to be drunk' he told his audience) but he was quite struck with Stallone.

The last time CNN's arts magazine The ArtClub (CNN, 10.30pm) visited a Hong Kong art gallery it closed only a few months later.

Art Space was the brainwave of a European owner, who rented thousands of square feet in an industrial centre in Aberdeen, just next door to some of those huge furniture showrooms and a French wine warehouse.

Unfortunately, art lovers seldom pass through Aberdeen, and the local market was crippled by the economic downturn anyway, and very soon, and very discreetly, Art Space became Space for Rent again.
