Great movie !
Coogler follows up his brilliant Fruitvale Station with another stellar piece of film making. Creed succeeds every bit as much as the original Rocky ...and I think this was Stallone's best performance since.
The best filming of a boxing match I've ever seen. Kudos to the cinematographer.
I have a suspicion that as with Spielberg/Hanks we'll see more from Coogler/Jordan ...at least I hope so.
No spoilers here ...see it.
