Review of Creed (2015) by Kermit R — 05 Apr 2016
Much like the characters in the film, Creed has everything to gain and everything to lose from this gambit, all stemming from its name and legacy.
Director Ryan Coogler updates the "Rocky" formula for a modern audience and manages to keep all the heart, sweat and tears that's made the franchise so legendary.
It's visceral in ways the others weren't, and real, like only the original Rocky was. After Balboa's last outing, I wouldn't have thought the champ had anymore fights left in him. But here, Stallone and Jordan show this franchise is still able to go the distance and stand toe to toe with anyone.
Yo Adrian, they did it.
