The themes explored include boxing fights, having courage and family love, a fighting competition to retain a father’s glory and finding closure, a son dealing with rejection a mother, doing the right thing for the wrong reasons, forgiveness and reconciliation.

What the Critics say | ||
| 24.com Ilan Preskovsky  Creed II gets by on some great fight scenes, a killer score, heavy doses of nostalgia and the continued greatness of Stallone as Rocky. Something does need to be done about Adonis Creed himself, though, if the series is to continue on to greater heights. | 10 |  |

| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Creed II’s adherence to franchise formula adds up to a sequel with few true surprises, but its time-tested generational themes still pack a solid punch. | 16 | |
