My review:
More on Viktor as a villain:
Creed II 6/8
Just what I wanted.
Tessabae so damn fine. I'd have a blind-deaf-mute baby with her.
I see a lot said it was predictable. I wanted a predictable ending to be Creed killing Drago. Not some weak throwing in of the towel.
All that did was try to make us feel bad for the Dragos. I saw how they slipped in poor Viktor's broken home. Boohoo mommy left me, she didn't want us. Gotta say it was coldblooded bringing in Bridgett for those scenes, gave her son a cold hello and the next is her walking out on him as he gets his *** beat. I mean damn at least kill Ivan though. In the end this dude Viktor still has his father to train with like he may be a tnhreat in the future (cuz in real world boxing thats exactly what would happen. Treat them like Tyson and Holyfield or Sugar Ray and Duran). Nah, end that storyline with a real conclusion by killing the Dragos.
Other than that loved the movie. Look forward to Creed III. They need to go full wild Rocky antics with that one. Bring back Coogler.
More on Viktor as a villain:
Hey don't get me wrong I didnt like like what was written for them just saying Viktor did have his motives despite not having many words.
Plus given the continuity and this opponent being connected to that they could only make him so much of a villain. Ivan and Rocky deaded the beef after he loss. They had respect for each other. Sure Ivan didnt know Russia was about to turn his back on him but still.
I would've loved it if Viktor was a bigger villain and Adonis killed him
Maybe it would've been better if we learned after his loss, Russia shunned Ivan and he eventually became a drunk and died. Viktor was raised by his bitter hateful mom Bridgette Nielsen and abused so he became a sadistic maniac that when he came to Philly he went to Rocky's place, knocked him out and put him in a coma. Then Adonis fights him, disqualification, Rocky gets out the coma, trains him, Adonis kills Viktor.
