Creed III

Creed III is a sports drama and the highly anticipated sequel to 2018's Creed II. Michael B Jordan returns as Adonis, a former boxer who is now thriving in both his career and family life, until his childhood friend and former boxing prodigy, Damian, unexpectedly resurfaces after serving time in prison. This face-off will be unlike anything Adonis has had in the past. As it will be more just a fight, it is personal.

Michael B Jordan's directorial debut was impressive. The engaging plot had a unique concept, and the cinematography was creative, drawing inspiration from Jordan's love of anime.

The casting was superb, with great chemistry between Tessa Thompson and Michael B Jordan. Jonathan Majors was a standout, stealing the show as a dominating fighter with a complicated past. Jordan and Majors played well off of one another. My only critique would be that I wished they had delved a little deeper into their childhood backstory. It was also nice to see previous fighters return from the first two movies.

Although not as great as the first two Creed films, Creed III was still entertaining and kept me on the edge of my seat. Therefore I highly recommend giving this one a watch.
