Creed

I have seen some sport and fighting movies in my lifetime and this for me was a great one.
At the beginning of the movie I couldn't tell if I like it or not because I couldn't get in the mood. But then those brilliant camera shots arose and I was so in. Every time I got to "follow" Adonis back and see where he was going or where he was looking - aaaagh, I have no words to express how much I enjoyed that specific choice of view.
Storywise I wouldn't say it was something fresh or original (nor I think it should've been) but it was carried out beautifully. Like I said - great fighting movie with actually enough fighting (or training) scenes in it, a needed build-up and interesting enough story. I also did have two tiny laughs and 3 tiny tears through the whole thing so that says something.
Soundrtracks were also cool and I would say appropriate for this kind of film (lil bit of hip hop, lil bit R&B).
I have a feeling Ryan Coogler will become one of my favorite directors. I can't say that now because it's too early to tell, but by now I soooo dig his work and both of his "big" movies (this and Fruitvale Station).
Michael B. Jordan - DAMN BOY, you got some beautiful, beautiful, beautiful muscles there. And your performance isn't too shabby to say the least.
Oh, Sylvester Stallone was there too.
All in all, I think everybody can go and see this one. Maybe you won't love it but it surely shouldn't be a let-down.
