This Ryan Coogler guy knows what he’s doing. Creed was better than I expected. Michael B Jordan was better than expected. Both sports and movies can have the ability to increase the heat rate, get the adrenaline pumping, and truly inspire us. That’s why sports movies can be so fun to watch. It’s even better when there’s great character development and world building to back it up. Creed has all those things in spade.

4 out of 5 stars
