Review of Creed III (2023) by Steprock — 15 Mar 2023
Good, not great. The film finally gets its own story instead of leaning on the Rocky franchise, but it still lacks that triumphant, boisterous energy that made Rocky so lovable.
It sets up lots of ideas but doesn't follow through when you think they will. The fights are better choreographed than the Rocky films, but you don't follow the dramatic moments like Rocky did so well. It's just two guys boxing till one wins. There's no moment of personal growth in the ring, a strategy change, a powerful breakthrough of strength. It just goes and then stops. It's good. If you like the franchise, it's exactly in line with the others and will not disappoint.
