    I thought the first 80 minutes was mediocre, but the final third was superb. Stallone was really good and a great final fight. I also miss Paulie who was a great character. Everyone is dead.

    Not in it at all. Just buried with Adrien. I was hoping for some Paulie action. But no, all dead already so doesnt really affect any of the film. I just wish Creed wouldnt mumble so much. Difficult to understand him at times. His Dad was more articulate.

    Yep Paulie, Adrian, Apollo, even Thunderlips (probably).

    It's a good film. Bellew exceeded my expectations of him. Much better than I thought he'd be.

    I just couldn't get into Creed's relationship and all the mumbling, but totally agree on Bellew who was really good. As soon as Rocky takes a turn that is when the film finally started to resonate with me. I just didn't really care about the Creed character very much, but by the fight, you are really on his side because he is such a green underdog.

    you know what, the but where you find out who won the third fight behind closed doors is such an insignificant part of the film, I don't think you should sell it that way

    It wasn'ta significant part of the film itself, but it was significant to fans of the Rocky series as a whole.

    Rocky will end up like Lamotta and Chuvalo. Hearts of gold, took beatings in the rings, experienced a lot of emotional tragedy, yet still able to live a long ass time.

    I really enjoyed it. I thought the part where the guys were riding their bikes alongside Creed while he was running could have been done better and wasn't really relevant. I would have preferred to see him tackle the stairs, more symbolic and relevant to the history of the film.

    Spoiler alert.
    I think we tend to get over analytical , after all it's a Rocky film. However, when in Rome......
    The motorbike scene was a way of bringing the series into the 21st Century, in a very Dark
    And "Edgy" way. If we're talking about continuity , the Market stalls that Rocky ran through probably no longer exist, and if all those kids bunked off school to follow him , Rocky and all their parents would be arrested.
    With reference to the steps, they were always Rocky's "Everest", this was addressed at the end of the film when Rocky went up them after his treatment, with Creed at his side.

    So the next films will be Lang, Drago and Dixon.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
