Years after Adonis Creed made a name for himself under Rocky Balboa's mentorship, the young boxer becomes the Heavyweight Champion of the World. While life is good with that victory and his marriage to Bianca, trouble comes to Philadelphia when Ivan Drago, the Russian boxer who killed Adonis' father, Apollo, arrives with his son, Viktor, to challenge Adonis. Against Rocky's advice, Adonis accepts the challenge without his mentor's participation and pays the price in a punishing bout he wins only by a technicality. Now injured and demoralized, Adonis cannot bring himself to back into the game, leaving his spirit and title in jeopardy. Together, Adonis' family and Rocky must find a way to rekindle Adonis' fighting spirit to face the future in whatever choice he makes. Meanwhile, the Drago family have its own troubles trying to regain the respect in their homeland that they lost at Rocky's hands as they wonder whether is it truly worth it.

| Lyles' Movie FilesJeffrey LylesNot only a superb follow-up to the breakout 2015 hit, but it's a worthy continuation of Rocky IV. There's not a lot of films that could so skillfully expand on two films. |
| ABC TucsonPhil VillarrealLike the iconic Rocky statue itself, the film and its series are triumphant, immovable and gleaming in bronzed defiance. |
| ObserverBrandon KatzIt is a solid movie that further cements Jordan as a star, and that's mostly because of how he portrays Donnie's personal development. |
| CBRSam StoneDespite a predictable script and workmanlike execution behind the camera, the cast elevates the material with their performances to craft another entertaining entry into the Rocky saga |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazettePiers MarchantIt's not entirely without its merits -- as much as seems rote, it's still a far cry from '80s-style cartoon buffoonery -- but just as quickly as Creed sprung up out of nowhere, this revised series already feels more than a little played out. |
| Hollywood NewsJoey MagidsonWhat easily could have tarnished what's come before instead movingly builds on it. This is one of the ten best films of 2018, unlikely as that may seem. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanThere are those for whom Rocky IV is the preferred chapter in the original series. Creed II is a gift to us. |
| Hindustan TimesRohan NaaharIf Creed was almost as good as Rocky, Creed II is almost as good as Creed. |
| Bowling Green Daily NewsMicheal ComptonAn entertaining next chapter that manages to both stand on its own and serve as fun nostalgia for one of the Rocky franchise's most iconic villains. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Cain Noble-Davies...visceral sports action and heart-squeezing emotional drama. |
