Creed 1 is decent because it's basically a Rocky movie continued. Stallone should have won an Oscar.

It's also well directed and the score is pretty good for a modern movie.

Fast forward through all the Tessa Thompson scenes and its very rewatchable.

The other two films are total shite.

First is great.

Second and third are okay.

1 & 2 are good movies, worthy of the Rocky franchise. I'd rank 1 above Rocky 4, in the same tier as Rocky 3.

3 is a bloated mess that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

I like them. They hit most of the same notes as the Rocky films.

I think if you like Rocky, you’ll probably like the Creed movies. It ran out of steam for me by the third film though.

First and second movies are great, but not because of Michael B Jordan. Stallone carries the first one and the Drago family drama carries the second one.

First one was good. Second is meh.

They don’t really have much rewatch value to me because Adonis is just not very likable unlike Stallone and Rocky.

Haven’t seen 3 but may give it a shot some day.

I like them all, but Tessa Thompson is the albatross in all of them.

If you can get past Michael B Jordan's "acting"

First one is the best, the third one is unique because of the anime influence in the fighting sequences and Jonathan Majors giving another great performance.

First is legit. Nice story... And Rocky and Creed reminiscent, brings back the 80s.

Going forward as a franchise without that, it's not very compelling.

The first one was decent. Never saw the other two. Overall, never felt like Creed had the loveable charisma Rocky had.

3 is terrible.

2 is OK

1 is a great

The single continuous shot in the first real fight in 1 was amazing.

1 is good.

2 is not so good.

3 is an epic fail.

About as good as the Rocky movies of the comparable number. They're fun movies. No need to take them seriously.
