Review: Creed III ★★★★

If you’re a fan of the Creed films, then this one will not disappoint you. Once again Michael B. Jordan is back as Adonis Creed and he’s going up against an old friend and sparring partner, Jonathan Majors.

It’s great to see Jordan take on the additional role of director and shows excellent promise for future films he may dive in to. If you’re a boxing fan, you will be pleased with the fight scenes and the choreography of them. It was amazing to see how precise and how true to form they were able to get the fight scenes to be.

There were several homages and memorable scenes throughout the film that will bring you a bit of nostalgia. The story line of seeing the love and chemistry then the tragic downfall between these two main characters was great to see.

Majors definitely did not disappoint in his role and it’s safe to say, we haven’t seen the last of him. Also, this film will have you gain a bit more of respect for Michael B. Jordan as he is growing even more as an actor. Lets not forget Tessa Thompson who plays the love interest of Adonis, she puts on a superb performance.

Overall, it’s safe to say that this film does a spectacular job of closing out this great trilogy with a mix of sports, emotion and success. I will say though… Rocky was definitely missed.

After dominating the boxing world, Adonis Creed (Michael B. Jordan) has been thriving in both his career and family life. When a childhood friend and former boxing prodigy, Damian (Jonathan Majors), resurfaces after serving a long sentence in prison, he is eager to prove that he deserves his shot in the ring. The face-off between former friends is more than just a fight. To settle the score, Adonis must put his future on the line to battle Damian – a fighter who has nothing to lose. Creed III is the third installment in the successful franchise and is Michael B. Jordan’s directorial debut.
