Creed

9.2/10 stinky bananas

Awesome movie. You couldn't ask for a better spin-off franchise. Extremely well done.

The filmmakers do an excellent job of recapturing the heart of the original Rocky movies. These movies make you laugh, cry, and most importantly, they get you fired the fuck up. I would say 95% of people start shadow boxing immediately after watching this movie. I did it. I couldn't help myself. I was too hyped.

Stallone fucking rules in this. He slipped right back into the character. How can you not love this guy?

Highlight reel time:

• One-shot fight is cool

• Hospital training montage is great

• The boxing choreography throughout the movie is beyond belief. It's unbelievably good. It's as close to real boxing as you're going to get on the silver screen. Honestly, it makes the boxing from the original Rocky films look stupid.

Creed is undeniably a great movie, but I'm about to nitpick the shit out of it...

BIANCA (Tessa Thompson's character) FUCKING STINKS. She's the worst. Hey Bianca, your music sucks ass. Hey Bianca, you know what's not good for hearing loss? LOUD MUSIC. Holy shit, what a dumbass. She also turned her back on Adonis when he told her Rocky has cancer, that's a bitch move. (Yes, I know Creed lost his cool at her concert. He went to jail for it. Is that not punishment enough? She has to abandon him too? She has no sympathy for Rock? Bianca is a scumbag.)

Conlan is a shitty antagonist. I don't really care about him. Bland character.

Anyway, watch Creed, you don't know what you're missing.
