Rocky, Rocky 2 & Rocky Balboa are the best of the lot. The first Rocky being one of my favorite films of all time. Rocky 2 is actually underrated. It still has some of the grit of the original but with some more comedy thrown in. Balboa is like an update to the original.. a tribute to the characters and settings. Some good dialogue as well.
Creed had some good scenes but it didn't have that Rocky feel to it, at least not for me. Stallone's take on the older, worn out Rocky was obviously the best part of the film. Worth watching. -

This one is really good, but I liked Creed better. I felt Stallone showed more acting skill in his ability to take the "second fiddle" role and still "make" the movie. Stallone showed more skill in Creed with being able to share the screen.

Me & my son have been watching these (him for the first time)..we just wrapped up Rocky Balboa last night and will do Creed probably next week (when I have him again).
not sure WHY, but I'm not CRAZY about Rocky Balboadon't get me wrong, its not TERRIBLE, but if I had to choose a LEAST favorite, its this one (yes, even moreso then Rocky V, which i think is HIGHLY underrated and is a fun flick in its own right). His speech about being punched and keep moving forward is MOVING and probably his best monologue in the WHOLE SERIESbut I don't knowfalls short for me. The Marie & her son side story is a big WASTE in my opinion. Really adds very little to the story and I really didn't care for her character.Im gonna punch you in the cooter, I swear to God!
