Review of Creed II (2018) by Mattyice — 26 Nov 2018

While Creed II fails to break new ground, feeling rather cliche, and fails to come close to the greatness of the first Creed, it is still a good boxing movie. The relationship between Adonis (played by Michael B Jordan, who is great once again) and Bianca (played by Tessa Thompson, who is also great) is fantastic, the fights are fun, and it's great seeing Dolph Lundgren back as Ivan Drago, although his acting, along with Stallone's, is pretty stilted.

The themes in the film are fine and really resonate on the Drago side more than the Creed side. A solid boxing movie in the end and one of the better Rocky movies.
