Why use "Creed" in the title. It's about his son, Adonis "Donnie" Johnson.

I liked that actor (Michael B Jordan) in the TV Series "Friday Night Lights". You could see his potential back then.

Saw the movie today and it was excellent.

Donnie Johnson is Apollo creeds son via an affair he had. The title makes more sense when you see the movie. I won't go into it because it would be a major spoiler. If you liked the rocky movies or boxing in general you'll like creed.

Again, it's about his son.

Yeah, the local movie reviewer raved about it..expectations were/are pretty low, since most probably think it's Rocky 7

It's a 9/10 and worthy of Oscar talk.. Phenomenal movie and the way the boxing was filmed, changes the game for cinematography of that genre..

Acting was amazing both from Stallone and Michael.. They got amazing chemistry together.

I wouldn't go that far about the boxing photography, especially with the gold standard being "Raging Bull". But Maryse Alberti, who also did "The Wrestler" Is an excellent Cinematographer, and the stedicam work done in Adonis's first pro fight (one take), was pretty darn good. Not to mention they shot in FILM!!:D

Solid Watch, Fun Movie.

It really is.
The probably won't give it consideration... they hate on him,

Acting was great. I was convinced it was Apollo's son.
Rocky was struggling in his own way(s).

Yeah, the local movie reviewer raved about it..expectations were/are pretty low, since most probably think it's Rocky 7

It's officially a spin off. Not about Rocky at all.
Even when they go there (about Rocky and his past) it rapidly slingshots back to Donnies "Creed" issues,

My wife and I really enjoyed this movie. Lot of people in the theater and the crowd actually applauded at the end of it.
