Best since Rocky IV..

Rating: 8/10 (10 April 2019)

I remember going to the drive-in when I was just a kid to see Rocky IV and seeing people literally standing on the roof and bonnet of cars cheering on Rocky in the final fight.
After that the franchise went down hill and when Creed came out I felt it was the final nail in the coffin (if Rocky V wasn't). However Creed II just pulled an underdogs knockout punch in the dying seconds of the 12th round. I know there is talk of a Creed III but I feel this movie just wrapped up 40 years of story telling. From the iconic scene of Rocky and Adonis fist bumping at the end of the fight and Rocky saying 'it's your time now' to the roll of the credits was the most powerful ending since 'there ain't gonna be no rematch'
Nicely done!
