For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.
It you blow up a balloon and don't tie the end, the air inside the balloon is pushing against all of the balloon equally. When the untied end is released, air pushing out the back causes an equal affect of pushing on the front and the balloon moves forward.
Rockets work in the same manner. Instead of air, they use combustible fuel for their force.
