Creed II - 金牌拳手:父仇



Creed II (金牌拳手:父仇) is an 2018 film. The movie stars Michael B. Jordan, Sylvester Stallone, Tessa Thompson, and Dolph Lundgren. The movie is an sequel to Creed (金牌拳手). This movie re-introduces the Drago family from Rocky 4.

Creed is now the champion and has a son. Ivan Drago has a son that's the same age as Adonis. Ivan is training him to be a master boxer like himself. As both live out their lives, Drago makes his move to regain his glory. One of the fastest ways is by defeating Creed. How will Creed respond as he lives a life of luxury against the scion of the advisory that killed his dad?

This movie is very similar to Rocky 4. The first fight that brings Creed a lost. And a lost of purpose. But the road to redemption for the 2nd fight to restore purpose. Even though it was a repeat, the story was presented for the modern era. However, I didn't really get on board. They also played the Drago family storyline as a victim versus the villain.

I caught the film via T-Mobile Tuesday Redbox promo.
