All Critics (312) | Top Critics (75) | Fresh (296) | Rotten (16) | DVD (1)
Sylvester Stallone gives the most compelling and truthful performance of his career.
Adonis and Rocky make one of the year's best cinematic pairings, their transition from strangers to acquaintances to partners to friends to something so much more absolutely exquisite.
It's a formula film, executed to near perfection. And it wields a secret weapon: our nostalgia for the original.
Its own great, singular achievement, outside of the considerable iconography.
with Creed, the series really has returned to its roots... there's an earthiness and street quality that we haven't witnessed since the 1976 original.
Creed is a sure-fire hit that's impossible to hate but I may have to punch the next person who tells me it made them cry.
Audience Reviews for Creed
Ryan Coogler does an amazing job telling a story that may be too familiar in terms of structure but echoes beautifully Rocky Balboa's life, benefiting from the relationship that grows between him and Apollo Creed's son and with Stallone in another wonderful, sensitive performance.
Super Reviewer
After the last Rocky film was already pretty strong this is another example of sequels not necessarily being pointless nostalgia but in best case adding new layers to a franchise. Sure, we have the usual ingredients of boxer films here as well, that's a tad predictable. But it's all so well done and performed, especially by Stallone, that you're glad you're along for the ride. The music is another great feature, both referencing the classic Rocky scores and going new ways. A very satisfying and enthralling new installment.
Super Reviewer
Adonis Creed, the son of Apollo Creed, employs Rocky Balboa to prepare for a big fight. The plot is derivative and maybe even cliche and a important character development isn't adequately resolved, but damn, is this film compelling. The fight scenes are brutal, and Sylvester Stallone turns in the best performance of his career. The scene in which he receives and accepts bad news, which I won't reveal, is heart-breaking; what is Sylvester Stallone doing making me feel things? Michael B. Jordan is a serviceable protagonist, so it's really Stallone that carries this film. Overall, almost despite myself, I really enjoyed this film.
