Fight for yourself!

Before watching this movie, it is a pity that I have not seen the Rocky series and the first Creed. There may be quite a few feelings and tributes that I cannot appreciate, but the plot is still very friendly to new audiences. The plot is almost impeccable

As far as I'm concerned, I've watched very few movies about boxing stories. In recent years, the more profound one is Gyllenhaal's Southpaw. This Creed is more routine in terms of the plot trend...high-low-high mode, in other words , quite satisfactory... But I still want to give it a thumbs up, because in the climax of the boxing match, even in the second half of the whole film... The process of the male protagonist from the low ebb to the climax... I am very excited, even deep Be inspired by it! What is even more valuable is that this infectious power makes me think about starting to pay attention to the World Championship! A sports movie can make you feel the charm and passion of the sport. This kind of contagion is undoubtedly a success!

Another advantage of this film lies in the shaping of the characters, especially the "villain" opponents. There is also a story line to let you understand their motives and inner state. I personally think that the white flag after the boxing match also reflects the opponent. A spiritual ascension…

"Fighting for yourself" is also the theme throughout the whole movie. Whether it's Coach Stallone's "Rocky", or the male protagonist's mother and wife, they are all expressing this meaning... Be responsible for yourself and fight for yourself. The attitude of an adult!

In addition, I have to say that the performances of all the actors are very good! Especially the heroine who plays "Valkyrie", her acting skills are great!

At the end of the film, there is an actor who made me scream and dance. If you also like the American drama "This is us" (our day), you will know it too! It was quite a surprise!

  • Ivan Drago: [Drago sits at a table across from Rocky in the Adrian's restaurant] Because of you... I lose everything. My country. Respect. You ever see stray dogs in the Ukraine? They go for days without food. People spit on them, they are nothing. No home. Only will to survive... to fight. I have son. All he knows...

    [raises his fists]

    Ivan Drago: ... is this.

  • Rocky Balboa: This guy, he's dangerous.

    Adonis Johnson: I'M DANGEROUS!
