The ghost of Apollo Creed continues to haunt our hero in the ‘Creed’ sequel.
Let’s get this out of the way: there is no chance that Creed II comes anywhere close to replicating the quality of the original film. It may be fun, and it may have some killer moments, but I just don’t see Steven Caple Jr. rising to the challenge of Ryan Coogler. Prove me wrong, Steven. You’re the underdog in this fight, and if this franchise loves anything, it’s the underdog.
Michael B. Jordan straps on the gloves once more. No longer chasing his father’s legend, Adonis Johnson, aka Adonis Creed, fully embraces the family legacy, but he’ll find self-worth by slaying the child of the man who murdered his father in the ring. The love of Tessa Thompson is simply not enough. That’s foolish, but the curse of all men who idolize Sylvester Stallone‘s Rocky Balboa.
