Watched a trailer months ago and went on full media-blackout; sometimes you can just recognize if a movie has huge potential. Glad that this seems to be the case.

I'll be on the lookout for when it releases over here. Glad it looks like it's a good movie that can actually stand on its own.

Coming out in my birthday, damn right I am going to go see it that night.
Can't wait for the new era of Rocky, and I would have been happy after Rocky Balboa ended it.
My mom loved the first ones, and I used to watch all of them all the time as a kid.
Good memories.

Looks like good reviews.

Am I the only one who loved Southpaw by the way? I legit teared up at certain parts which has never happened in my life watching a movie.

Even though Rocky is my all time favorite movie, I wasn't too interested in this and wasn't planned on seeing on it. Because I didn't like Balboa.

I guess now I should see this film.

Oh my god there is a SHITLOAD of people in line for this screening

This is like Winter Soldier level of packed. I might be toast. I fucked up HARD by not getting here way early apparently.

Oh yeah man, you gotta get there like 2 hours early for those screenings. Usually by 6 the number of people who are going to get good seats -- or even get in the theater at all -- is pretty much set.

I'm really good at screenings normally, but this shit caught me off guard since it's only a week early. We'll see if I get in in a bit.

If I don't, it's Bobby's fault

If the line is long enough, the reps will contact the studio, and they'll see if it's okay to drop a single screening from one of the other houses and move the overflow into that auditorium.

I haven't even seen the Rocky movies and I thought this looked amazing from the trailers. Good to read the positive reception.

Well, this is a bit of a welcome surprise. Wasn't expecting much when I first saw the trailer for this movie. Given the reviews it has been receiving I'll make sure to give this a watch when I can.

Southpaw was just too fucking manipulative. The first half is his character being shat on the entire time. Just new bullshit after bullshit. Followed by the finale that just sort of happens.


Loving how they say its the best since the original. The last Balboa was good. Proper send off for his career as Rocky, but I'm happy they put him in her as a Micky and brought in new blood everywhere else.

Well Rocky is my favourite movie series of all time. So without question I was going to watch Creed.

Glad to see all these glowing reviews.

I'm a fan of everyone involved in this, so the good reviews are awesome to see. Nice that Michael B. Jordan's gonna bounce back quickly from F4.

The Rocky series ruined boxing for me. I expect real life boxing matches to be offensive throw downs and I am always disappointed ;_;
