      Movie Info

      Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) never knew his famous father, boxing champion Apollo Creed, who died before Adonis was born. However, boxing is in his blood, so he seeks out Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) and asks the retired champ to be his trainer. Rocky sees much of Apollo in Adonis, and agrees to mentor him, even as he battles an opponent deadlier than any in the ring. With Rocky's help, Adonis soon gets a title shot, but whether he has the true heart of a fighter remains to be seen.

        After the last Rocky film was already pretty strong this is another example of sequels not necessarily being pointless nostalgia but in best case adding new layers to a franchise. Sure, we have the usual ingredients of boxer films here as well, that's a tad predictable. But it's all so well done and performed, especially by Stallone, that you're glad you're along for the ride. The music is another great feature, both referencing the classic Rocky scores and going new ways. A very satisfying and enthralling new installment.

        A fresh reboot of the franchise with some great performances, excellent direction from Coogler, and some of the best boxing sequences I've ever seen.

        Adonis Creed, the son of Apollo Creed, employs Rocky Balboa to prepare for a big fight. The plot is derivative and maybe even cliche and a important character development isn't adequately resolved, but damn, is this film compelling. The fight scenes are brutal, and Sylvester Stallone turns in the best performance of his career. The scene in which he receives and accepts bad news, which I won't reveal, is heart-breaking; what is Sylvester Stallone doing making me feel things? Michael B. Jordan is a serviceable protagonist, so it's really Stallone that carries this film. Overall, almost despite myself, I really enjoyed this film.

        I'm not sure which Rocky film pushed me into Balboa fatigue. So I didn't expect much when I went to see Creed. But, I sure am glad I saw it. It's re-energized the franchise and count me in if there is a Creed II. Michael B. Jordan is a star. And, the on-screen chemistry with love interest Tessa Thompson is real. The boxing scenes might be the best EVER filmed. They are realistic and... cool. As for Balboa... Stallone rightly gives himself and his Rocky persona to director Ryan Coogler and, while far from being the greatest, is pretty damn good in this movie.
