I loved the part when Adonis was like It's saved on the cloud. And Rocky was like cloud? And looks up lmfaooo

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Jordan M. Aww ha ha, yes I thought that was cute. But I almost laughed out loud over the KZbin scene.

[@BlackNerdComedy]

I love that this Creed review is filled with Star Wars The Force Awakens references ha ha ha!

[@darkmyro]

+Black Nerd Comedy loved the creed joke XD

[@ranguiano74]

What happen to the girl & the son from the last Rocky movie? The one that Rocky had feelings for? It feels like they forgot about it, it just bothered me so much lol

[@AmonQuick_]

Dope (kinda)

[@kidanarchy2105]

André you're so right about Creed. It's so rare a movie with an all or mostly black cast that isn't about being black.

[@kidanarchy2105]

André you're so right about Creed. It's so rare a movie with an all or mostly black cast that isn't about being black.

[@kylewilliams8028]

*Creed post credits scene* Adonis: Who the heck are you? Nick Fury: I'm Nick Fury. What if I said you could be part of something bigger? I want you to be part of the Avengers program. Adonis: Man, I'm already part of the Fantastic Four. And I don't even know if that's gonna work out. So lemme just focus on this Creed franchise... Aiight? Nick Fury: Is... Is Jamie Bell available?

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Kyle Williams Ha ha ha ha!

[@kylewilliams8028]

Black Nerd Comedy Lol, good review btw. Great movie.

[@FryedPidgey]

whenever I watch a movie I'm gonna expect nick fury in the after credits scene

[@shreyassr1150]

this is amazing😂😂

[@ThePonderer]

This movie made me bawl like a baby. That's a feat.

[@ShockwaveITB]

*spoiler alert* Bro when he said he had to prove he wasn't a mistake (or accident I don't remember which one) ....fam if I wasn't s super man who doesn't have those girly emotions I would have shed a tear...but i had popcorn in my eye so it watered and s kernel must have been stuck in my throat cuz I had to coff at the Same time as well...it was weird you know th timing of those things these events

[@Senpap1]

+ShockwaveITB Spoiler alert When the Rocky theme started playing after his pep talk, I felt chills.

[@vincentdaniels2596]

+ShockwaveITB Yea man. I had to look away from girl at that point cause some dust got in my eye *Sniffles* fuckin old ass movie theatre.

[@ShockwaveITB]

Vincent Daniels yeah man they really need to clean those theaters ...foreal lol

[@tonismyth5893]

if this movie cant make you tear up your not human

[@qjitsu]

more than just a black relationship, but this movie flips every stereotype for movies in this genre with a black male lead. He was a angry young black man but he was intelligent and educated, kind, sensitive, reasonable, and focused. He had an ego and a chip on his shoulder but he was well adjusted, he had daddy issues but he didn't hate his father, he in fact wanted to live up to his legacy and he didn't need the old sage to save him from himself, he was looking for a mentor. Personally i think Donnie Johnson is the Black male lead in a movie that we have been asking hollywood for. 5 *****

[@Lag22987]

Fantastic review Andre

[@alligator-uz5wj]

A fant4stic review?

[@FcBarcelona478]

+Alligator1779 4 f4ant4stic review?

[@justanotherkid-pb2zk]

+Carlos R Why do people call it like that?

[@johntiberg5456]

+Casey Jones look at the movie poster

[@justanotherkid-pb2zk]

john tiberg Oh. Sorry you'll have to excuse me I'm an idio.

[@taylorgang221000]

Tessa Thompson is fucking gorgeous

[@SaithusX]

I didn't like her hair!! Lol but beautiful woman.

[@taylorgang221000]

+SaithusX nothing wrong with her hair. Made her look even more gorgeous.

[@SaithusX]

+protectyaneck__ maybe I'm just picky lol

[@KnawledgeBorn]

Black Rocky!!! ever notice the best Rocky movies center around Apollo Creed? Rocky (Creed gives Rocky, a nobody a shot) Rocky II (Creed Takes The L in the rematch) Rocky III (Mr. T whips Rocky's ass and Creed has to train Rocky) Rocky IV (Rocky avenges the Death of Creed and ends the cold war at the same time) Creed (Nuff said)

[@itsokaymedia6866]

tbh that's true

[@pedrovilelasantos]

though Rocky Balboa is better than 2,3 and 4

[@cryptusmaximus8699]

+Elton Grice That's kind of short selling Rocky Balboa though. It was an excellent send off for his character, and probably better than most of the entries in the franchise.

[@crossswordsproductions2059]

What about 5?

[@DenniWintyr]

+Cross swords Productions Even Stallone pretends 5 never happened.

[@lazedout8755]

I hope a new trend in Hollywood is starting with diverse casts

[@yohguy4655]

+LAZEDOUT I hope its staring diverse cats

[@saikyocentral]

+yoh guy #PersianLivesMatter

[@lazedout8755]

+FinalConduitZeroThree anyway I hope Hollywood starts to become more diverse

[@saikyocentral]

+LAZEDOUT yeah, of course

[@luckylombre]

I agree but i don't want it to feel like forced like "Oh our group of friends has an Indian guy, and white girl, and a gay guy, and black guy, and hispanic guy, and Japanese girl and were all great friends" something like that would be a bit much

[@raphcannon]

I loved the entrance of Pretty Ricky too, it was ridiculously awesome. I loved this movie all the way. Good review Black Nerd!

[@Aeradom2000]

+Ronin Raphael Far better than Floyd or Manny's entrances that's for damn sure. Now which one came out with the Burger King guy and which one came out with Jimmy Fallon?

[@raphcannon]

Whisker Fish in all of fighting that was one of the coolest entrances ever for a champion. The crowds reaction was on point too.

[@Aeradom2000]

Ronin Raphael You talking about Pretty Ricky's entrance right? Not Floyd with the Burger King guy, yes?

[@raphcannon]

Whisker Fish my original comment mentioned Pretty Ricky, so I believe I was clear on that. In fact that entrance of Ricky was one of the coolest in all of fighting sports that I have seen.

[@gretchenlynn89]

Though I am not black, for whatever it is worth I agree with your comments on black movies and representation of black relationships. I grew up watching "black movies" because I didn't realize that I was not their target market until I tried to talk to my friends about them and literally no one had seen them! Ah well, it meant I got to enjoy Columbus Short in all of his glory before he was on Scandal.

[@KartoonManagement]

exactly! I hate when people say you lied to me and then are cool again.

[@mrmanpersonguy5812]

I think one of the funniest scenes is when Adonis and Bianca are having sex in Rocky's living room and you just see one of his turtles watching them. XD

[@JonathanGarcia-vd5ci]

Django Unchained had a black on black romance.

[@viewer7179]

+Jonathan Garcia because it had to.

[@JonathanGarcia-vd5ci]

+Viewer I was joking. Yes, Andre has a point with the whole relationship thing.

[@QReviews412]

Yeah i wouldn't really consider Django black love.

[@carboy101]

+Jequient Broaden Why not?

[@kevincheng81]

Because he has better chemistry with Waltz?

[@CamsEyeView]

I think you made a good argument. just because it's a "black movie" doesn't mean it has to go low brow or go to the levels of Meet the Blacks, or When the Bough Breaks. you can have movies like this and have complex characters and relationships.

[@DoctorLazers]

Creed 2 should be Creed vs Clubber Lang's son... or Ivan Drago's son.

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+DoctorLazers Oh man, Adonis fighting the son of Ivan Drago... that would be WILD!!!!

[@DoctorLazers]

Black Nerd Comedy And then Drago's son kills Ricky Hanlon at the beginning and Adonis needs to get revenge.

[@Xarazel]

as the whitest white boy thats ever been white, i can NOT agree with the black 'every man' enough. what i love is, have the 'every man' character, but have them be black or latino, or any minority, but do NOT make their minority their character. make their race indistinguishable from any other race. because unless race matters (like with an established characters/relationships (Johnny Storm)), it doesnt matter. you can have a black 'every man'. you dont need to make him love rap, or the latino love tacos or have strong family connections. stereotypes exist for a reson, and its OK to use them, BUT DONT MAKE all of them, of any race, stereotypes

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Xarazel Thanks for agreeing.

[@DoctorLazers]

In the theatre I saw this move in, it ran the BLACKEST previews. The previews were, Central Intelligence (Kevin Hart and The Rock), Ride Along 2 (Ice Cube and Kevin Hart again), Fifty Shades of Black and, the blackest of all movie franchises, Barbershop: The Next Cut (Ice Cube again).

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+DoctorLazers Ha ha ha! We got Central Intelligence but not the other ones. And hey, there's nothing wrong with "Black" movies. Some of them are my favorites. Just saying to see mainstream franchise films have diversity as well with fleshed out characters and not diverse decoration.

[@DoctorLazers]

Black Nerd Comedy Yeah, I'm with you on that.

[@skabcat242]

Damn, the rocky series will never die.

[@R1ckyWithA1]

kkk,mi

[@tomdevinney7280]

That's a good thing

[@Thepunisher90thGaming]

As long as it makes money, why would they not milk this cow dry? Plus Sylvester Stallone made it, that should tell you all you need to know.

[@mrdzentertainment1062]

+skabcat242 I know.... isn't it Awesome?

[@miggy2timez]

Gotta say andre, definitely one of my favorite reviews you've done and I especially love your take on the "black culture" element of the movie.

[@slashandbones13]

Creed is one of the best uses of nostalgia I have ever seen because by itself, the story still works so great but knowing the history behind it adds so much more. my biracial girlfriend noticed what you were talking about and it enhanced it for her.

[@juliansankey-hutchful8215]

rocky saga.... mega man shirt Megaman's Japanese name is rockman...... I know it wasn't on purpose but it came to mind instantly

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Julian Sankey-Hutchful Or was it? ;)

[@juliansankey-hutchful8215]

+Black Nerd Comedy Hahaha Thanks so much for replying Andre you have already been my favorite youtuber.

[@juliansankey-hutchful8215]

typo *always instead of already

[@andylindsey]

Creed was AMAZING! This was the best passing on of a movie franchise to a younger new actor I've seen. This may be the best Rocky film yet! It's one of my top favorites now. I'm all on board for Adonis to take on the "Rocky" mantle. I almost leapt out of my seat at the last fight when I heard the Rocky motif play with the trumpets right before the last couple blows were thrown. They were channeling that young Rocky spirit! Aww, so good.

[@Leo619858]

Bruh, you definitely hit a point about the romance, you don't see black love in mainstream movies often. But the much stronger point is that black men are normally not in relationships in movies. So interracial relationships with black men get the short end of the stick, especially with white women. At least you're guarantee to get black love in black movies. In black movies you don't see interracial relationships. Hell think like a man both movies and about last night literally had ensemble relationships, no interracial relationships. In mainstream movies the very few times that black men are in a relationship, it's with either a light skin black woman or latina. Hell, Finn went to the heart of the first order, got sliced through the spine with a lightsaber and still got friend zone. You best believe if Finn was played by channing Tatum they would have kissed by the second act. So the much stronger point you made is black people asexual issues in mainstream movies. Because at least you get black love in black movies.

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Leo 619 Yeah, it's rare to see all of it. A lot of that is old school Hollywood thinking though. It will change over time.

[@MsDesiree39]

wth do idiots always hve to bring colour into everything? foh!

[@wewantraw]

I really wish he was like "I'm a Creed. I'm a Creed on the down low!"

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+RADubs Dang it! Missed opportunity. That's it, you're hired as my writer :)

[@wewantraw]

YES!!! Black Nerds United!!!

[@kevinv7241]

Saw it recently too.. quickly became my favorite movie of the year..behind Star Wars of course

[@Sykdude]

I saw Creed opening night. I absolutely loved it. All of my co-workers didn't believe me when I told it was excellent.

[@InFiiLtRaTor]

This movie made me so emotional. Man that speech in the last fight at the start of the 12th round got me so pumped, then the rocky theme starts playing and i'm just fist pumping like I ain't never fist pumped before! Shit was emotional!

[@nathanieljackson5554]

Great review Andre. I saw Creed a few weeks ago and it's definitely in my top ten for the year. Michael B Jordan & Sylvester Stallone crushed it. They were both amazing. Ryan Coogler got great performances from both of them and the entire cast.

[@RichardBondCreative]

Man - love the way you make some real and salient points in such a safe and enjoyable way, no one is doing that and I love it!

[@vanburen20]

Just watched it. I loved it very much. Are you upset the way the fight ended at the end?

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+vanburen20 No, I wasn't. It was a nice finish, plus wasn't surprised since it was also a nod to the original film.

[@vanburen20]

+Black Nerd Comedy yea I felt the same way. keep up doing videos bro my wife and I love watching your stuff

[@AtomicDevan]

+vanburen20 It was like the original movie's ending.

[@Randommale7]

+vanburen20 They actually filmed it both ways and then decided which ending to have rather late in the game.

[@StayFrostyEnt84]

No, it ended perfectly. It gives him something to strive for in the next film.

[@neohinhin2372]

I honestly didn't know Creed was a Rocky sequel until Rocky showed up. But i enjoyed it soooo much! :D

[@kevincheng81]

That's got to be the best way to find out.

[@mjjjermaine]

The black love point was so true, I really love your reviews!👏🏿🙌🏾

[@travelerluke5748]

I liked this movie a lot. a great way to continue Rocky. but it will suck if rock dies if they make another one.

[@rodneymercado7195]

This movie was AWESOME! I saw it a lot later than I intended to - just like you Black Nerd, but man oh man, definitely worth it. It did have heart and everything you mentioned. I thought the fight scenes were THE BEST fighting scenes I had seen in any boxing movie, like EVER! Very well shot and directed! About the knock you gave it of thinking who the last fight was going to be, I thought they were setting it up for a sequel, which i think this works GREAT as. Adonis establishes he is a fighter to be reckoned with and not just making it off his daddy's name. Add in he has been trained by Rocky now and that sets up a big showdown with Stuntman and Stunt talking smack how he knocked out Adonis, took his ride and owns him - basically stripping Adonis of his manhood and maybe Adonis had some psychological fear to overcome (a la Rocky 3). I think that could work very well, if it is tweaked and done as well as Creed was done. Bottom line, Creed will definitely be sitting next to my Rocky undisputed Blu ray collection when it gets released, and YOU KNOW it will have some great special features so I'm excited for those as well. This movie is a definite must see and must own for Rocky fans ... and don't hate on it or go in with negative thinking because it is a bit more street and the main character is black, it really is a great movie, too good to pass up, especially over something as trivial as skin color.

[@julia.24]

I do love that the movie was able to establish its characters as people and make their blackness an important aspect of their character, but not a "gimmick" or the only defining aspect of their personality. Adonis is a fighter, and he's black; Bianca is a singer, and she's black, and I think their race is vital to their current characterizations, but it isn't made to be the only thing we care about them. I hate to hear people who have never struggled to see themselves represented in fiction talk about how "fake" minority characters are; I would defend Creed even if it was a stereotypically black movie because those deserve their place too. It is nice, however, to see a movie written that expects people of all races to relate to a black man because of his journey; most of the time, that's saved for the white everyman, who's percieved lack of race must mean he's a blank slate for all people to relate to! As a lesbian, I understand the struggle between lgbt genre films which I enjoy, but rarely get mainstream appeal, and token gay characters in movies or sitcoms which recieve sparse amounts of attention, usually all chalked up to stereotypes about their sexuality or a chance for the scriptwriters to show how ~progressive~ they are for having a gay character, even if they are never served by the narrative. I hope that one day, all people can find themselves represented in film as they are, with their unique features defining traits of their personality, but not their only aspect of characterizations. Creed was such a great movie in how it approached race and I hope to see more like it in the future.

[@raykelley4585]

Creed and Force Awakens both stand as a testament to the power popular film making can still have when done with passion.

[@aaronthegamer125]

One of my favorite films of the year. I got waaaaay more emotional in this film than any other this year. Including star wars. Great review Andre :)

[@alonzabrown5345]

first time commenting on your review though I've watched dozens of your videos. just wanted to say that I completely agree with your point that one of the things I loved about this movies is it featured well written characters who happen to be black as opposed to black charecatures. I also really appreciate you pointing that out as I am sure some of your audience may not get what you mean. Keep up the great work Andre.

[@xcarsan]

I watched it an hour ago, it was epic and full of tension. It really made me tremble my fists when Creed was fighting. Totally great and so happy that this movie exists

[@a_real_one2000]

It's funny Andre talked about the music score being perfect in bending traditional rocky score with a hip hop twist. The person that producer of Childish Gambino album "camp" worked on this movie.

[@SamiKhan-ir1iy]

That Running scene tho !!

[@MJJSmoothCriminal]

Creed is one of my favorite films of this year. I really enjoyed it from the beginning to the ending.

[@jamaalmutaliph7493]

I loved the part at the end when west coast hip hop played when the american Adonis Creed came on stage and then U.K grime hip hop played when the English Ricky Conlan came on. Django Unchained had black love aswell

[@rush92287]

That awkward moment when you're trying to scroll up to see the top of Andre's head, but can't because that's the top of the video..oh well. RIP Andre's hairline, which took a turn for the "Lebron."

[@edzim10]

that dirt bike stuff is actually a Philly thing. there's always a couple of people riding them around during the spring and summer unless you're in strawberry mansion where it's dudes on horses

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Shademan_DS I figured as such. This definitely was a "Philly" movie. There's a scene where they're making a cheesesteak... oh my gosh!

[@MrSigmaNoir]

Good review Andre and I agree with it wholeheartedly. The Stuntman not showing up again kinda bugged me a little bit as well. I dug how they worked today's technology into the plot like him looking up the fight on KZbin and watching it on his tablet,that was a nice touch that kinda built out the universe in which Rocky and Apollo are real people. On a side note,I didn't realize this until I looked away from the video while it was playing,but your voice sounds a lot like Kadeem Hardison.

[@EdwardSanchezProductions]

Andre I am so happy that you finally review Creed

[@pyroblast3000]

Yes Andre you made PERFECT sense. I like to see more well written characters too.

[@RebaHashiri]

This was a awesome movie. especially that boxing fight

[@DaSil3ntX]

Dude, GREAT REVIEW! I you made me want to go watch it! Also great touch on the whole adding bullet points to "black movies". I have skipped out on movies in the past for doing that!

[@RyceTV]

I love how your impression of Sylvester sounds like Red Fox. LOL!

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+RyceTV To be fair, all my old men impressions sound like Red Foxx LOL!

[@MrPruchy]

Creed Jr. was missing his dad's sweet Jab. Seems like he fought more like how Rocky fought. If you noticed when he was watching the video of his dad vs. Rocky, he shadowed the movements Rocky did.

[@dirus3142]

I loved this movie. It was refreshing to see a movie that took it's time to develop the characters and have them grow. I only had a few things that bugged me. Bianca taking it way to personal that Don didnt tell her who his father was. However it could have worked if their relationship ended. Mary should have been at the fight in London.

[@matias9609]

re:love interests In the mainstream of mainstream movies, yes it's rare. Due to most movies in this category being made for the lowest common denominator

[@valeriegalvan8822]

I love this movie, I didn't even recognize the actor from the Fantastic Four movie until I looked him up afterwords and my mind was blown. He was really good here.

[@doncurry4038]

--> Great review...especially your social commentary. Keep up the great work!!

[@s_m_0_0_0_t]

Creed was so good. It made wanna train to be a boxer ha ha. The soundtrack makes me wanna run a marathon. The person who did the music does the music for New Girl and did the music for Fruitvale station (the Micheal B connection) Loved the movie. Thought it took a little time to build up but saw it again and realize how great it ALL is! And Andre the race talk is inevitable. Micheal B played Oscar Grant. I don't think it can be avoided at this point lol Great review. I can finally watch this one since I've seen the movie.

[@wolffisu]

Also, what is that black bag with a blue rimming. (Sorry if this is invasive, but I was staring at it throughout the entire video wondering if it was an instrument or like just a random bag... Or something like that)

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Squidney Bean Ha ha ha, it's okay. It's a tripod bag :)

[@wolffisu]

+Black Nerd Comedy OOoooooooohhhhhh!!! That makes sense!

[@Novika75]

I just noticed that right now Stallone is just as old as Burgess Meredith was when he played Micky in the original Rocky... time, man

[@KartoonManagement]

Pretty Ricky came out to Chinx Drugz. I was like sheesh!

[@braceforace8364]

I didnt want to say it but.....does anyone els notice that stuntman looks like drake or is it just me

[@Batkenpre]

+Brace for ACE. its not just you

[@braceforace8364]

[@Batkenpre]

You can never be the onley one on something

[@keith1984rich]

Judge a Man not by the color of his skin but the content of his character -MLK. Great video Andre !

[@josephz7228]

I love the Rocky Movies....And Jordan did great....Nice to see Rocky take the Mickey Role.

[@CreativeSteve69]

hey Andre love your videos. 😃 this is my first movie review video I've watched. I have one question for someone like me who didn't watched the old rockys is it a necessity to watch them first before creed?

[@dynamitejimi]

Andre, the reason Adonis didn't fight Stuntman is that Pretty Ricky broke his jaw. Ricky chose to fight him to use the Creed name and make more money. The soundtrack was amazing btw.

[@backup368]

Triple H was dressed as the Terminator for WM31. Ahnold even provided voice-overs.

[@Wagner5634]

Andre remember my comment from you The Good Dinosaur review asking to review Creed? Well this is ASAP huh? HAHA no just kidding, you still got the review up and that's all I wanted. Great video once again.

[@Mizuinu]

GOD IT WAS REFRESHING TO SEE BLACK LOVE IN MAINSTREAM HOLLYWOOD MONIE. Creed was a fun, smart, well acted & directed

[@bebebebota11]

I wish I had this review sooner. It wasn't really promoted in my country and now it's no longer at theaters; and it sounds like the perfect movie to go see with my dad :/

[@ctcentralinfo]

Pretty Ricky Conlan was the Apollo Creed of the movie. Ricki was going to prison for 7 years possibly ending his career Sort of like Apollo was basically aging out of his in the original Rocky movie.

[@0axel078]

Just last year, there was Dear White People, About Last Night, and Top Five. And just a month ago there was Chi-Raq. Two of those are mainstream films, and they all have black-black romances between fleshed out characters. But in general, I understand what you mean, Andre.

[@TTG161]

Andre is actually responding to comments 😮😮😮

[@MadMazReviews]

I sort of think that the second film will have Danny "Stuntman" Wheeler face off against Apollo. The first film was meant to sort of cement his ability as a fighter-- to test him and to overcome his own demons. Whereas his fight with Wheeler could be the fight where he might win the belt? Like Wheeler will be the main obstacle.

[@Alexandermovies]

I didnt notice the one continuous shot thing when I saw it. Ill have to check it out again.

[@jess_a_yo]

You've convinced me to go see it again, it's that good. Hopefully it'll still be at my theater this weekend should I change my mind about seeing Joy.

[@BroadwayFLAVA]

I was waiting for this review... I forgot about it. Great time to upload it. Makes me want to see it again. Happy Holidays Andre #LoveFromHarlem

[@davidheald7957]

8:52 Doug Walker actually has a name for that cliche. It's called the "Liar Revealed" cliche and, just like you and him, I HATE when movies resort to that. When Doug Walker did his video of the Top 10 Worst Cliches, I realized that this cliche is particularly rampant in rom-coms and kid's movies (many of which I've seen like A Bug's Life, Chicken Run, and even Rango).

[@ZhaneX24]

Your comment about there not being a lot of Black Couples in movies got me thinking. And...yeah! Like, the only one that I could think of was Independence Day.

[@LavallaisPictures]

I so didn't want to see this movie until I saw your review. I probably won't catch it in the theaters, but I'll probably Netflix it. Love to hear about the Black love.

[@DoctorPretorious616]

Great review! I loved Creed, best "Rocky" film since the original. I would like to see Adonis even the score with either Stuntman or Pretty Ricky in the next movie. And maybe for "Creed III", they could have Mr. T back as Clubber Lang; who would be training his own young protege who becomes an antagonist for Adonis! I pity the poor fool who wouldn't see that.

[@leijen208]

This review hands down makes me want to see it. Despite my avatar, I am a black female and I get it. All of it. One of the main reasons I subscribe. You are a nerd/geek, like myself, who happens to be black. But your color doesn't define you, it's just part of you.

[@KennyGJr]

Totally agree with you man. Great movie, great cast. I'm just afraid if they do a part 2, will we see Stallone in it.

[@stripedsweater520]

I literally love your film reviews cuz youre not snobbish and you're just honest about all the aspects that you notice in a cool way great just great :D *edit* just watched it it was good I agree about the fight with leo or stunt man. BUT that could be in the next film bc leo is only 17 up & coming (i liked their fight a lot). I think the fight with ricky was justified. He was like the overall champ of the boxing 24 k.o's? and creed's goal for this was he could fight the champion and prove he is worthy of the creed name.

[@StayFrostyEnt84]

Thank you for saying "Race is apart of who we are, but it doesn't have to define who we are." Paraphrasing of course.

[@Guthix2Judge]

I found it refreshing to see a boxing movie where there was no real "bad guy". They are just boxers and this is what they do. You don't have to hate the other guy to want the protagonist to win. We are already on their side. Great movie.

[@willpoweramv]

I have that same shirt.

[@Toteskawaii]

The music and the movie is amazing.

[@vent.1523]

Thanks again for a great review, Andre!

[@Atomicvideohead]

Lindsay knows the director I think. Would it be worth asking her to connect for an interview?

[@PlutoBlack]

Man. I felt the same way about the whole Black Love thing on film. It didn't hit me until he was helping her take down her hair in one of the scene. I connected with that primarily because I usually do the same with the ladies I'm with. Lmfao and can I mention the reaction I had when Tessa Thompson's character arrived? I forgot she was in the movie. Had me swoooonnning fam lmao

[@caridadchang7895]

nice to see Andre still wants every movie to come out on May 6 2016 let them fight

[@BlackNerdComedy]

+Caridad Chang Trust me, I'll probably be saying "May 6 2016" after May 6, 2016 :)

[@caridadchang7895]

Black Nerd Comedy SW Episode VIII should come out then too

[@JonnyRocketfingers7]

I think the fight with that last guy was because he was at the top as far as boxing goes and he was going to jail after the fight. So, not only did that allow for Adonis to get into the big leagues on only his second fight. But, I think that character paralleled who he could become if he didn't prove himself to be worth something.

I just saw this about two hours ago. Great film. That one shot kicked so much arse. Probably first equal of all the Rocky films (right next to the first one), definitely better than 3, 4, 5, & 6.

Stallone was as good in this as he's ever been in anything, including the first Rocky. I'm not saying this movie is better than the first one, but it's incredible.

I never liked what they did to Apollo Creed's character in _Rocky 4_.

I love this movie a lot better than Star Wars episode 7, I think this's movie of the year and I am Mexican. The movie, characters and the story is perfect.

This film's music is just great. Best film of 2015 for me!
