As good as the first!

Rating: 8/10 (29 December 2018)

Creed 2 had a lot to live up to considering the surprisingly good reviews that the first movie received.
That whole "here we go again", was our initial response when Creed was announced. What followed however was probably the strongest movie of the whole Rocky franchise (in my opinion).
So when Creed 2 was announced, that whole "here we go again" response kinda happened one more time. Especially considering it was picking back up the whole Drago/Creed story once more... surely this time it won't answer the 10 count, right?
Wrong!
What's actually happened is we've got what is probably a contender for the 2nd best movie of the Rocky franchise! Creed 2 follows in the same footsteps of its predecessor in style and substance. Although the main story was slightly predictable, which you could gather from the trailers. It still throws in a few little twists here and there.
What made this movie so great however, was the way it seemed to sign off (if it wanted to). It felt like we had gotten closure. I got a little emotional I'm not gonna lie.
