#SundayReviews: "Creed II"


Ding-ding! It's round two for Adonis Creed, AKA: Creed II!

From Google:

"In 1985, Russian boxer Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren) killed former U.S. champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) in a tragic match that stunned the world. Against the wishes of trainer Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), Apollo's son Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) accepts a challenge from Drago's son (Florian Munteanu) -- another dangerous fighter. Under guidance from Rocky, Adonis trains for the showdown of his life -- a date with destiny that soon becomes his obsession. Now, Johnson and Balboa must confront their shared legacy as the past comes back to haunt each man."



I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.

This was a good movie, but not great like the first instalment.

Probably because Sylvester Stallone was an ungrateful b*tch (look it up), and so Ryan Coogler pretty much left this film alone and kept his cinematic magic to himself.

VERY WATCHABLE, but it could have been a champion.

QBF Rating: 3.5/5

NSFW Monday!

Good Morning! This is the 21st, and last of my "Body-Painted Football Babes Bonanza" series. Perhaps more importantly however, the semi-finals begin tomorrow in the World Cup! So a hearty congratulations to the great teams who made it: Uruguay versus Netherlands Germany versus Spain They will play each other tomorrow and Wednesday respectively, but all signs point to Germany defeating the Netherlands in the final. Now, back to the babes! We have ladies representing the Italian Republic (the only returning champion I'd wager, to ever come dead last in the weakest group), and the Republic of Korea (South Korea -- who lost to Uruguay in the 2nd round). - QBF Spicy Meatball: Korea's Taekwan-Don't Stop!
