Compared with the previous episode, the plot of the sequel is old-fashioned, and the music lacks bright spots. Why Rocky refused Creed's request in the first place. Because he fully understands that in such a fierce arena, only players with tenacious will and excellent form can win. After being teased, Creed made a hasty decision to challenge. At the same time, Rocky was reluctant to push Creed into the losing arena again because he had lost his best friend, so he indifferently declined. After the failure, Creed's fighting spirit became fragile, blurred and disorganized. Rocky understood that failure was an unbearable humiliation for Creed. At this moment, the fire is lit, and if he doesn't help Creed again, he will probably fall down. At the invitation of Creed's mother, Rocky hurriedly went to see Creed, and the two settled their suspicions. In the face of such a powerful opponent, Rocky knew that if Creed gave up halfway, it would be enough to save his life and take on the responsibility of a father for the family. In the end, Creed persevered. After everything was ready, and with the support of his family and friends, Creed went through extremely hard torn hand-to-hand combat and finally won back the honor of boxing champion. For Rocky, after so many ups and downs, he understands that honor is short-lived, illusory, and owes too much to those who are really important. At the same time, he can understand Creed's bloody fighting spirit, and constantly instill the importance of family to Creed, so that he can make rational decisions for himself and his family more rationally and prudently.

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.
