  • Movie Review: ‘Creed II’
    Movie Review: ‘Creed II’ NEW YORK — Moviegoers under 33 take note: You had yet to be born when “Rocky IV,” the 1985 film that hovers in the background of the sports drama “Creed II” (MGM), was released. While viewers of any age will know what to expect from this latest extension of the durable franchise long before they buy a ticket, the tried and true, against-the-odds formula still works somehow. Early on in this chapter of the saga, Adonis Creed (Michael B. Jordan), with the help of his hard-driving trainer, Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), wins the world heavyweight championship. He also proposes to his live-in girlfriend, Bianca (Tessa Thompson), a singer who suffers from hearing loss. But the rise of Viktor Drago (Florian Munteanu), a rival Adonis feels compelled to take on, sets up an emotionally fraught match since the up-and-comer’s father and coach, Ivan (Dolph Lundgren), is the Russian fighter whose blows killed Adonis’ dad, Apollo, back in the Reagan era. (Rocky subsequently fought and beat Ivan.) Rocky continues to feel remorse over his opponent-turned-ally Apollo’s death and urges Adonis not to accept Viktor’s challenge, a stance that threatens to cause a breach in their close relationship. It’s a conflict Rocky can ill afford since the death of his wife and alienation from his son have left him emotionally isolated. He can still count on the loyal friendship of Apollo’s widow and Adonis’ adoptive mom, Mary Anne (Phylicia Rashad), however. Working from a script Stallone co-wrote with Juel Taylor, director Steven Caple Jr.

  • Press Start Equip Level Up
    CREED II (2018)​ | ​Moving Forward ​| BIBLE STUDY Facilitator Note​: We encourage facilitators to take this Bible study and expound on it throughout the week, allowing it to be a springboard for deeper conversation and personal meditation. PRESS START Creed II continues the story started in 2015’s ​Creed​, but the roots of that story began much earlier in 1976 in ​Rocky​. For anyone keeping count, that makes this newest film the eighth in a long series that continues to inspire underdogs everywhere. Do you have a favorite film in the series so far? Have the new ​Creed films continued the legacy well in your opinion? With there being six ​Rocky ​films, how many more ​Creed stories do you think there could be? What else do you think lies ahead for Adonis Creed? EQUIP Adonis Creed and Rocky Balboa find themselves of different opinions after Adonis, the newly awarded heavyweight champion of the world, is called out and challenged by Viktor Drago, the son of former Russian boxer Ivan Drago. The elder Drago was single-handedly responsible for the death of Adonis’ father and Rocky’s friend Apollo Creed in ​Rocky IV​, and this new challenge stems from decades of bad blood that followed. Adonis feels he must stand up and avenge his father (and satisfy his own pride) by taking Drago up on the match, but Rocky refuses to stand in the corner and watch another Creed die needlessly. Instead, Rocky, losing the only meaningful relationship in his life with Adonis, is left to spend his time at his restaurant and complain at home about a light in front of his house the city won’t fix.

Chee was brutally honest in his analysis of his relationship with money, as well as his mishandling of his trust fund left in his name. His father was 43 years old when he passed away. There was no will, so the money was split between Chee and the rest of his family. Chee was 18 years old when he received the trust fund, and for the next nine years he was free from the burdensome adulting that many twentysomethings face. His college was paid for. He travelled around the world. He bought a fast car. He lived well in New York and California.

While Stephen Capble Jr.'s production is pretty good, Creed II suffers from an all-too-simple, too-classic script, with no real twists to surprise the viewer and thus give a whole less smooth character: a story of revenge, pride and arrogance of a hero that costs him victory, existential issues related to fatherhood and confrontation with family, coach and student, who are confused but ultimately reconciled. , under the high tension that the hero wins by humiliating his opponent on his land.
