“Throwing body shots like he’s Rocky Balboa going upstairs like he’s Apollo Creed” goosebumps.

Michael B. Jordan knocked it out of the park. I really admire him as an actor. He always comes across as authentic in his roles.

Rocky going through cancer treatment is emotional as hell. My Dad is going through the same thing he's coming home today from the hospital so this just hits close to home for me and really reflects alot of people going through cancer it's a battle and I'm proud of everyone who has overcome or battling cancer happy the film was able to highlight this and hopefully motivates people going through the same thing. Glad you loved this film the 2nd is my personal favourite just not sure if a third film is needed but hey i know many people said the same about a third Rocky film and that proved us wrong lol

15:40 there are no hidden cuts in this scene. Michael and the other guy (a real boxer) choreographed the whole thing The camerawork in this film is just beautiful

The tagline for the movie is very important as well: "Your name is more than a legacy."

It’s hard to find a long running series pull off a “passing of the torch” storyline so smoothly. This is one of those rare instances when they nailed it. It honors Rocky’s legacy, Apollo’s and builds a new one for Adonis. Creed 2 is a solid follow up to it as well.

Crazy thing about the times Adonis was knocked out during the beginning when he was in Lil Duke's gym & then in the finale, he actually took those shots and was really knocked out. It's insane to think about what people will go through to make the film more realistic

Lived up to the heritage of the Rocky films, and really what more could you ask for? Tying it back to Apollo Creed is such a strong way to go. Michael B Jordan and Tessa Thompson killed it in this, and Rocky deserves some new family after all the people he's lost.

The intro when the kid Adonis goes “what was his name?” and creed fades in, hits so fucking hard.

Yeah Creed was an amazing addition to the franchise. And you're right it did manage to stand out and feel like its own thing while at the same time managing to keep that same Rocky feel to it.

this is easily my favorite movie in the rocky franchise

_Creed_ is a great flick. Definitely a phenomenal addition to the _Rocky_ franchise. *Edit:* What was so good about it is that it was new yet familiar at the same time. And I just love Tessa Thompson in anything honestly.

After creed 2 you should also give southpaw a watch too its unrelated to rocky or creed but also an amazing boxing movie with a compelling story and jake gyllenhaal's performance was s tier

I love how they were able to still give rocky his own kind of fight this movie still

This movie turned out better than I ever expected, as a lifelong Rocky fan. They really did make a modern Rocky story while still making it part of the series. I love how the movie all comes down to one sentence, "To prove I'm not a mistake." Echoes that Rocky in the first film wants to prove he's not just a bum. And when that Rocky theme finally plays it really feels like they earned it. Creed II comes a very close second to this one, and even adds more layers to one of the Rocky films...

In the first big fight it was actually a no cut scene. The other fighter is a real boxer and choreographed the whole thing There is a KZfaq video on it

I was worried that Creed was going to be a flop when it first came out. I’m so glad it did as well as it did. Stallone even won a golden globe! Best supporting actor! If I ever meet Michael B. Jordan or Ryan Coogler I’d like to thank them face to face for creating this great film.

Dude this movie is so amazing I love in the final fight u can hear the classic Rocky theme kicks in

As a Rocky fan since the early 80s, I can't tell you how enjoyable it's been to watch your reactions to the franchise. I didn't have a great childhood, and watching Rocky 1-3 incessantly on VHS was one of my only joys. The films inspired me so much to overcome my past, and watching you watch them has literally made me cry on many occasions.

Oh yeah Body shots are the silent killers I had a tournament last year and before we started we had a spar before and this guy landed one clean shot to my rib and ended up bruising it before we started but I put on a poker face and outboxed em rib was bruised for a solid month and a half

They really should've directly acknowledged the events of Rocky V in this one and used it as Rocky's reason for being wary of training anyone again. I mean, you _can_ look at it that way if you want (if you happen to remember part 5), but they never just come right out and say it. Didn't have to spend a lot of time on it. Didn't even have to speak the name Tommy Gunn if they didn't want to. Just something along the lines of "Hey, ya know... the last time I tried this manager thing, it didn't turn out too well." And he could've shot back with something like "Yeah, I know. But this isn't last time." Boom. Past events: acknowledged. Moving on.

This is no doubt one of the best legacy sequels ever made!

You didn't understand the opening scene... He was fighting his father....Apollo...

After Tommy Morrison (Tommy Gunn in "Rocky V") and Antonio Tarver (Mason Dixon in "Rocky Balboa"), this is the third time in a row the main antagonist is played by an actual professional boxer. And I think Tony Bellew did such a good job as Ricky Conlan that I'm kinda sad that he hasn't been in another movie since.

Not sure if you’ve seen it, but Warrior is an amazing movie that I would definitely recommend watching. Edit: Southpaw is also great. Peace!

I remember being super skeptical about this when it first came out. But damn this film is a masterpiece! Ryan Coogler knocked it out of the park with this film! Stallone gave us one of the most beautiful performances of all time in this one!

This is perfection in my top 10 of all time. Best in the rocky franchise. Slys best performance he's ever done. Really should of got that Oscar. It's incredible

This is such a beautiful movie, my favorite in the whole Rocky franchise. Been waiting for your reaction lmao cheers bro

This was amazing to see in the theater. Ever since Rocky Balboa I haven't missed one. I'll definitely be in the theater for Creed III. Jordan knocked this out of the park, and Stallone gave one of his all time best performances, up there with Rocky, Rocky II, First Blood and CopLand. Creed II is also another great entry in the series. Keep up these great reactions!

So when the CREED 2 reaction comin cuz now we need it asap ROCKY😏

You've probably already watched Creed 2 by now, but definitely check out the deleted scenes for that one. ;)

I still have to watch Creed 2. This movie is really good.

I CANT TELL YOU HOW MANY DUDES WENT TO LEARN BOXING AFTER THIS MOVIE... Myself included

Creed is AMAZING. When Rocky was struggling with Cancer it reminded me on when my Dad went through it😢

Just adore this movie actually!) 😻

Tony "Duke" Evers (Tony Burton) was in Rocky 1 thru 6. Sadly Tony was too sick to return when Creed was made in 2015, and he dies Feb 2016 at 78 years old. Tony "Little Duke" Evers Jr is the son of Tony "Duke" Evers, and is played by Wood Harris

what other franchise can, in its 7th movie, knock it out the park ike Creed did for the rocky series??

i never gave this movie a chance despite loving the Rocky movies. Watching the start of this reaction made me stop and go watch this before finishing your reaction. This hit me like the very first Rocky did. Love that you do this series justice.

"You're a false Creed." lol my favorite quote Last fight of Conlin's epic career and its against a nobody with a famous name. Adonis hadn't earned it yet by moving up the ranks so of course Conlin's pissed

No. All the fights were one shots. Pretty impressive

I’m so happy your finally getting to the creeds!

Perfect cast for Adonis Michael B Jordan does look like Carl Weathers

Seeing this in the theater people were cheering like we were at a real fight

16:11 - Those are the same original turtles from the first Rocky. The original Cuff and Link. Unlike Rocky's son of whom there are five versions, they are the same two in every film Cuff and Link are shown.

This movie was top tier. It really was a very good movie. Michael B Jordan really embodied the role as Adonis Creed. Just like how carl weather's and Sylvester Stallone embodied Apollo and Rocky. This movie really was an instant classic. And honestly the second creed film was just as good.

You should look into what got Ryan Coogler to want to make this movie. This was a like a love letter to his father. Loved this movie!!!

Creed might be the best Rocky movie in the series. Can't wait to see Creed III.

16:00 you have to have your guard up as well before the 10 count

You're going to lose your mind when you watch Creed 2.

"You know how many times I had to carry your father up these steps cause he couldn't walk?" Yes, Mary Ann. Twice. Unlike Ryan Coogler, I was paying attention when they said "Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed" and "Creed's never been knocked down before." So yeah, twice, in January and November of 1976. In Stallone's script for "Rocky IV," he answered the "who won the third fight" and the answer was... no one. They both hit each other with the punch we saw, realized it was stupid and they hurt, and quit. As they're leaving the gym, Rocky says, "Can I ask you something, Apollo? Did you have a brick in your glove." Apollo laughs and responds, "Stallion, I was about to ask you the same thing!" Personally, I think that's a better follow up than it being a real fight.

Incredible movie , always gets me so emotional 😆

15:37 - It's all one shot. The cut he gets over his eye is CGI. There's a video on KZfaq where Gabe Rosado (he is the actor that plays the role of Leo Sporino and a former pro boxer) it critiquing boxing films. When he gets to Creed he confirms it's a single shot.

When i first heard there was a creed movie coming out I honestly thought that it was gonna be a young Apollo Creed. Can't wait for your reaction on Creed 2.

I’m not a big boxing movie fan bc they kind of all start to be the same. This was such a great reboot of the Franchise, nostalgic and yet new. I so wanted Stallone to win the Oscar for supporting actor.

Rocky: I should've stopped the fight with your father. I'm stopping this one now. Donnie: Don't, okay? Let me finish. I gotta prove it. Rocky: Prove what? Donnie: That I'm not a mistake. That part always floors me: the answer to why Donnie does what he does, why he has to prove himself. Then Rocky gives a great speech as always and the original theme kicks in, what restrait to wait till then to give us the Rocky theme! Such a beautiful movie; just like most of the Rocky movies, it is so much more than just a sports movie!

im so glad more ppl are reactin to the rocky and creed series. so good.

I remember watching the old Rocky movies with my dad (my pops) and when this movie came out me and him watched it and we cried when Rocky showed up and then trained Adonis!!! Rocky at the grave yard is me now.. RIP POPS!! Been a year already! 😭😭

I've seen this movie a few times and many times watching reactions that was a good catch when the ref asked how many fingers he was holding I never noticed him tapping his neck!!

Andre Ward, Gabriel Rosado, and Tony Bellew are the 3 real life fighters in this film

Amazing movie, amazing soundtrack, amazing actors

The actor who plays Leo is a real boxer Gabe Rosado. He is in a youtube video talking about boxing scenes in movies, he talked about his own scene and said it took a long time to practice and get right for it to be all in 1 shot. Also some of the punches in that scene were real.

Genuinely among some of my top rated pieces of cinema.

I knew you would love this one. My dad fought non Hodgkin’s lymphoma, losing his battle the third time. So this does hit close to home too. I’m glad they didn’t kill Rocky off and they didn’t Luke Skywalker him either. My favorite scene is the last corner break when Donnie admits he wants to prove he’s not a mistake and Rocky tells Donnie he loves him. ❤️. The Rocky theme kicks in for the first time. This composer Ludwig Goranson won an Oscar for Black Panther and he does the entire seasons 1 and 2 of the Mandolorian. He’s won two Emmy’s for that. When you finish season 1 of the Mandolorian check out the Galley the making of season 1 Mandaloran. There are 8 episodes and one episode is all about Goranson and the music. There is also a great discussion by show creator about George Lucas’ view of the dual of the fates and it will change how you view Episode I the Phantom Menace. There is also an episode with a round table of the actors and Carl Weathers (Apollo himself) is participating. He’s so awesome and so humble when one of the actresses talks about how much she learned from him.

I can't wait for creed 3 this year. I hope it truly is phenomenal

32:16 - Michael B. Jordan had to take an actual punch from Tony Bellew to get this shot.

I really liked this one

Haven growing up watching the Rocky’s on (VHS) lol I thought this was and absolutely fantastic film 💯👍🇬🇧❤️🤘 great reaction 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Your going to LOVE the next one.

hey primate all the fighters creed fights are real pro boxers so they did tons of 1 shots with great choreography

The Accountant is a great movie to add your watchlist

The actor for Danny wheeler is Andre ward who is a retire undefeated boxer at light heavyweight

YAYYYY IT FINALLYYY POSTED !!!!👑

I tell anyone who’s a fan of the Rocky movies to give "Million Dollar Baby" a watch! Another boxing movie, in a lot of ways it’s different than the Rocky movies but in some it’s a lot alike! The main character has the same heart as Rocky.

One of my favorite movies. Little tidbit: Danny Wheeler is Andre Ward. Former real boxing champion. Ricky Conlan is Tony Bellew, another real boxer and former champion.

Once again, this one includes many people from the boxing world. Fuqua used lots of one shots, yes they were one shots. The first fight I knew he was toast because that's former real life Champ Andre Ward. Michael B Jordan does a decent job, but intermediate technique. Shoutout to real cut man Stitch as well.

If you're looking for a fun boxing comedy I recommend The Great White Hype. Grudge Match was also pretty good.

One thing that adds to the authenticity of both "Rocky Balboa" and "Creed" (and "Creed II") is the use of real-life boxers and boxing personalities in the film. In "Rocky Balboa," Mason Dixon was played by Antonio Tarver -- who was the light heavyweight champion of the world at the time. In "Creed," Danny Wheeler is played by Andre Ward -- former super middleweight and light heavyweight champion and one of the best boxers of the last 20 years. And Ricky Conlan is played by former cruiserweight champion Tony Bellew. Add that to the Mike Tyson cameo in "Rocky Balboa" and the appearance of Michael Buffer and the HBO Boxing announcers in both movies and it gives the modern films a more realistic feel... and it definitely helps to make "Creed" something VERY special.

Just so nobody is confused creed 3 is coming out this year November 22nd that’s the planned date not 2023

If you didn’t notice that’s Tessa Thompson aka Valkyrie from Thor

I'm excited!

The guy who knocked him out in Dukes gym at the beginning who was rated #2 Pound for Pound is played by an actual a boxer named Andre Ward. Andre Ward is the last male boxer from America to win a Gold Medal in the Olympics (2004). He was also ironically ranked as the actual #2 pound for pound boxer right behind Floyd Mayweather in the real word when this movie came out. Although him and Floyd could never fight because Andre Ward is about 3 weight classes heavier then Floyd. Ward dominated at 168 pound Super Middleweight moved up and achieved wins over the most dangerous Light Heavyweight(175) at the time and retired undefeated. Some of the clips in the movie are from his real fights. It was amazing for boxing fans to see him in this. A master of his craft. The main villian/opponent is also played by a boxer named Tony Bellew. Not as highly regarded as Andre Ward but a very good champion at Cruiserweight(190).

Such a beautiful film brother

Primate when you watch Creed 2 search up the deleted scenes for it they really make the franchise even better !

Don't like how they say rocky should have thrown in the towel even tho Drago pushed the ref away as they fought so it wouldn't have mattered 🤔

You should watch southpaw it's a good boxing movie

The Fights are actually one shot. There are no cuts

This is a better movie than a couple of Rocky itself.

Apollo Creed Trainer name was Duke. Everybody has importance in these movies. It's disrespectful to him when he Trained your idol Rocky Against Ivan Drago and The real former Champ in *Balboa*

Danny wheeler is former champion Andre Ward

Second one is a banger too

Hella excited for this 😁

creed

Best movie of 2015

He actually got knocked the*uck out! Look online...

I was waiting for this

That fight was only one shot

If only Killmonger had moves like Creed

This was a great movie and a great reaction

Keep up the good work
