Creed III

Creed III comes alive as a result of Jonathan Majors and Michael B. Jordan's emotionally charged performances.

By delivering the expected and doing so with style and intensity, it lands in the top tier of the nine Rocky universe movies, although falling short by a few titles from the pinnacle.

Creed III is too sleek, too rushed, and too contrived to deliver [all] the emotional payoffs it promises.

The visuals are full of action and energy.

Solid installment!... Pretty pedestrian, but goes places I really like.

Creed III is promoted as a boxing movie, but is really a tale of pain, regret and the power of brotherhood.

A dizzying, vicious dance peppered with slo-mo close-ups and visceral sound effects that make a case for why this might be the best boxing movie since Sylvester Stallone’s original outing.

The film takes some risks for a sports movie and although not all of them have a perfect landing, the cast and Dreamville Records executive production bring an electrifying soundtrack that makes everything right.

Michael B. Jordan’s film is a stirring tale of brothers who turn against each other out of hurt and love

The third and best chapter so far focuses on Donnie wanting to retire a champ and blend his business and boxing talents to create Adonis Creed Athletics.
