Creed 2

Just took my middle son to watch creed 2 (school is closed today)
As an early 70’s child I was brought up on Rocky, they were my dads favourite movies.
Still makes me laugh, cry and has me on the edge of my seat!
As with all Rocky movies it’s very predictable but I still loved it, just wish there was more music from the first movies

Yeah loved it! Fights were so realistic! Nice to see Rocky at the side of the ring too. Loved the first Creed too.

In the summer we went to an evening with Sylvester Stallone in London, he was so nice and I could have listened to him talk for ages!

My son is just getting in to boxing and so loves the Rocky films (or should I say film and he's only seen IV up to press). He keeps watching clips on YouTube and for Christmas we've got him the full box set plus Creed so he can work his way through them. I'm hoping Creed 2 is still on at the cinema once he's watched them all 🤞🤞🤞

I’m also a fan of the first three Rocky films. I still remember seeing Rocky 3 not long after it came out as one of the first films I saw on VHS. Think it must have been around early 1982. Gave me my love of watching boxing.
Mr T wasn’t well known then as it was pre the A team. Loved that film and the music.
Then I watched Rocky 1 on TV in December 1982. Loved that also. Then Rocky 2.
I felt it went downhill on Rocky 4, and Rocky 5 with Tommy Morrison was terrible. Watched those 2 at the cinema. My wife loved Rocky 4. It’s OK, I’ve liked it more when I’ve watched it again.
Rocky Balboa and Creed 1 were both well reviewed and I think I enjoyed them both, but I could not tell you what really happens in either, they were quite forgettable.
I’d like to see Creed 2.

Oh I would have loved this!
Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger & Jean Claude Van Damme were my childhood hero’s

oh how I loved them.
