A Rocky film for the next generation

Rating: 7/10 (28 May 2019)

Let me say that Creed won't win points for being better than the Rocky movies just because it's "newer" and looks more "real". But it's still a solid entry in the franchise that will encourage viewers to step into the ring again.
The movie follows Adonis Johnson-Creed, the unknown son of Apollo Creed, who tries to make a name for himself while not completely adapting to his late father's legacy. It's entertaining to see Rocky train Adonis in the same ways we saw himself learn from Mickey in the previous films. Most of the film I believe pays homage to the originals, example: Adonis and Bianca's relationship is similar to Rocky and Adrian. The theme song "Gonna fly now", Is brought back.
The things I didn't like about it was that unlike Rocky, Adonis has a lot more attitude and temper, and causes a lot more harm unintentionally. But the movie was worth me buying it on blu-ray.
