Rocky Balboa is back and he is the biggest legend of boxing, even when is not boxing.
Creed comes with Apollo Creed's son, Adonnis, who wants to fight, but never knew his father and wants Mr. Balboa to train him, that's the story. Very simple but there's more.
I had no expectations for this movie, and i'm still very surprised for what i've just seen, one of the most impressive things from this picture it's the magnificent direction by the young Ryan Coogler (who did an amazing job on Fruitvale Station), everything is edited very well, there are a few long takes which are impressive, even in fight scenes, it's hard not to punch the air during the fight scenes.
Michael B. Jordan redeemed himself (after the horrible Fantastic Four) and brings a very charismatic Adonnis Creed, the great Tessa Thompson is the new Adrian Pennino, and Sylvesyer Stallone brings his best performance ever, no doubt this is the second best movie of the Rocky franchise, very strong and very, very, very emotional. Ludwig Göransson's score it's one of the greatest points of this picture, bringing pieces of the classic Rocky theme, a lot of hip-hop beats, and orchestrated sound, makes it almost perfect.
Even though this film recycled elements from the first film, it's one of the best ones from the franchise and you must see it now, i mean, right now ! 9/10
