This movie was terribly mediocre.

Majors was pretty good (hes becoming the best thing in every film he's in) and Jordan was actually better than usual, but it never emotionally engaged me and the storyline had to do so many contortions to make sense, it kind of took you purnof it.

My theater, which was probably 90% black audience, were also openly laughing during parts of the final fight and post-match.

Overall, if you just want to go to the theater for a night out.. It's better than a lot of crap pirbour recently, but don't expect this to be as good as people are touting it. It's pretty far from the good Rocky films, and probably about in line with Rocky V.

I've come away from this month thinking Jonathan Majors is just a fricking fantastic actor. Neither of Ant Man or Creed III were anything special, but he was the best part about both movies.

The story was weak as frick. The final fight was one of the worst Rocky-movie fights of all time.

Not sure if this is the spoiler thread or not so I won't go into detail.

About where I landed on this

I can’t stand Tessa Thompson. I don’t think she’s that pretty anyway.

And far too much story was devoted to the deaf daughter who they seem to sow the seed of it going in that direction of her boxing as she grows up for potential sequels? I just didn’t care

The final fight , it didn’t have much emotional weight to it like other creed movies did. Never felt like he wasn’t gonna win in the end

Also: the dodger stadium CGI crowd felt like it belonged in a space jam movie: it was so obviously all fake
