Review of Creed II (2018) by Joseph O — 23 Nov 2018
This movie outdid my high expectations going in! Michael B Jordan was flawless throughout. The storyline was masterfully tied to its predeccesor (Rocky IV) and bringing back the actors from the original was a nice touch.
Following his first fight, the audience feels the same beat down level of dejection that ï¿ 1/2Dï¿ 1/2Â? (Creed) was going through. Viktor Drago (Florian Munteanu) is an absolute unit and the cinematics did a great job of giving it the ï¿ 1/2David vs Goliathï¿ 1/2Â? feel.
Additionally, the background on the Drago father-son combo humanized the pair and their motivations leading up to the big fight. The fight scenes are the best I can remember. Overall, I am confident saying that this movie is on the Mt.
Rushmore of the Rocky/Creed series and is a must see regardless of your interest in sport!
