I Play Rocky is officially rated NR. Bontent's independent parent guide recommends it for ages 13+.

I Play Rocky chronicles the biographical journey of Sylvester Stallone as he fights for creative control to star in the film that would define his career.

Brief sexual material includes verbal allusions to intimacy and some suggestive dialogue typical of adult office and social environments.

Violence is minimal and non-graphic, consisting primarily of realistic boxing training sequences or stylized sparring that lacks blood or severe injury.

Strong language is frequent throughout the film, including several uses of 'f-words' and other expletives throughout the protagonist's uphill battle in the industry.

Smoking is a consistent feature, with characters frequently seen using cigarettes throughout the 1970s-set narrative.

The film deals with mature themes of professional rejection, poverty, the struggle for artistic integrity, and the emotional toll of breaking into a competitive industry.
