Just because Creed is better than Rocky 3, it doesn't make it a great film. The best thing about this collection of cliches is that it made me want to watch Rocky again.

Somehow, this movie seems to fit the criteria for both a remake and a sequel. Obviously, yes, this film follows the continuity of the franchise up to this point (even Rocky V for some reason). But while doing that, it also makes the story feel like a "What if Rocky took place in 2015" plot. I could see someone possibly finding that to be a fault, but I really loved it. Our main character is different enough to be interesting while tackling these difficult odds.

But don't let me forget the direction on this film. I loved almost every shot, every edit, and every musical cue. The fight scene in the middle of this film is all one continuous, uncut shot. Probably put together digitally, but still freaking awesome. If you enjoy the Rocky franchise, you'll enjoy this great epilogue.

The best Rocky film since the first one, 'Creed' is a winner.

My thoughts exactly. Was more excited for a new, proper Rocky film than a new Star Wars!

4/10

The beginning was bad and unfortunately the film was full of cliches. Creed was too focused on the emotional parts with some cheap attempts to gain empathy for the characters, like the hearing impairment. The Rocky Franchise always had a lot of emotional bits but they were bearable to watch. I also think the performances weren't great. The first really good thing in the film was around the one hour mark, the boxing fight, it was pretty well shot. I liked the original media Integration with HBO Sports, Sports Center and PTI. In the end Creed is a weak film

Along with Mad Max: Fury Road, The Martian and Sicario, Creed is one of the best movies this year. I'm looking forward for the Blu-ray release to enjoy the behind scenes features.

This is my favorite Rocky movie. It is just so well made. This works as a reboot but has so many callbacks to the others. Ryan Coogler is one of the best directors working today. The cinematography is just incredible. That middle fight scene all done in one take is something special. The others are good too, much better than any of the previous movies, but can't live up to that one. Michael B. Jordan and Tessa Thompson are both great but it is Sylvester Stallone who really steals the show. After playing this character for so long he is still able to bring so much more to Rocky. This is probably the performance of his career and I'm sad he didn't win the Oscar.

Doesn't quite deliver the knock out punch I hoped for. Still, an enjoyable movie and better than the majority of the Rocky sequels. The franchise should probably retire from the fight, however.

For me, "Creed" is the only sequel to the Rocky series that really comes close to the quality of the first movie. That said, neither the final opponent is particularly noteworthy here, nor is the training montage outstanding. Everything else, however, outshines the other sequels. Michael B. Jordan is able to carry the film as the new protagonist effortlessly. His chemistry with his co-stars, most notably Sylvester Stallone and Tessa Thompson, is also out of this world. Stallone is as good as he's ever been as Rocky, too. Meanwhile, the production values are top-notch. The sports movie formula is executed to perfection. The final fight, then, is perhaps the most strongly choreographed of the entire series. The baton has been successfully passed from Stallone to Jordan.
