I haven't watched the movie in awhile (but I was gifted a 5 pack of Rocky 1-5). And the fact that the 'Mob Boss' is actually a good guy, and told him to do his own thing! That's awesome! 😂 Stallone not only is a good actor, but he wrote this movie! And it's funny to see how the characters were in place to help the character find his goal. But in reality, Stallone wanting to find his place in the world....and it worked out, far beyond what he ever could've believed! We're still talking about this man to this day! And as an icon!
4 is the best It was realistic as much as it could be...great reaction! The characters are awesome! I've had some ladies watch this and they couldn't believe how much of a love story it is....it gets better!
40:35 A lot of good perspectives shared in this reaction, but this is probably the best line. With the character of Rocky, Stallone managed to create probably the most likeable guy ever. He's made plenty of bad movies, of course, but this film is flawless. (P.S. -- *Before* you watch Creed II, you *must* watch Rocky II, III, and IV. You will not understand the depth of Creed II [including how Apollo and Rocky became such close friends later on] if you don't know the huge backstory from the Rocky films.)
I'm actually editing the reaction for rocky 3 now and I will say you are right. I can see how close they became in part 3. I can't wait to get the reaction out and I am excited to see how their friendship grows. that last scene in rocky 3 with the two if them was pretty epic. Thank you for watching and commenting . I hope you enjoy the other reactions as well. I promise the editing and video placement gets better lol.
Rocky Balboa is the greatest movie character of all time. If you watch the whole series then the Creed movies feel different too. I hope you go the distance and watch all of em’. 🥊
The issue with Adrian is that she was apocalyptically shy. She liked Rocky but as her brother implied, if she didn't break out of that shyness just a little bit, she'd die alone. She needed someone to take the lead. Rocky was the guy to do it and Adrian would say it's the best thing that ever happened.
Very true. I feel bad for Adrian. Between the shyness and living under her brothers thumb in the first movie. I know it's a movie, but I wish she had people in her life besides Rocky, who didn't put her down.
Yes I feel you. I think many of us have been in a situation where there's one force that's less than encouraging, with few positive people to counter it - the sudden appearance of an alternative outlook can spin your world around.
From a Rocky fan... I strongly suggest that you watch all the 6 Rockys and then rewatch the Creeds after. I tell you, you'll have a different experience. I enjoyed your reaction and did subscribe. Thanks for doing Rocky. Keep punching! 🥊
Thank you. I will definitely watch this series. I was a little iffy about rewatching movies I've seen before, but if people are cool with it, I wouldn't mind rewatching the first two creed movies. I really appreciate your comment 🙌🏾.
Thank you, I really appreciate you watching, and I love reading your comments as you're going through. You're awesome 🤟🏾. Rambo would be a very interesting movie for your channel. And I know it's out of left field but Disney's a goofy movie.
@@DevonRucker im enjoying commenting as I'm watching. 😅😂 there's so much, so I can't do it during every instance. (Though I am going to watch Rocky 3 now).. Rambo is definitely a good idea, and A Goofy Movie would definitely end the same way (potentially tragic ending becoming a happy ending where nothinf happens.)😂😅
Enjoyed your reaction! 1 and 2 are sooo perfect and belong together. 3 and 4 are great just waaay more 80s style cartoony type (of course, it was the times), 5 was a step down but I still thought it was very good and important to the series. And 6 was the perfect bookend. Looking forward to your journey!
Thank you. I think part 2 is coming soon. And I will make sure to edit it so more of my reaction can show. This was my first attempt at a movie reaction, so I really appreciate the view and the comment.
I will try to get all the best moments. But if it's like the first movie, it's gonna be tough to decide what should go and what should stay. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾 lol.
Sly stalone wrote the screen play for rocky, he was offered money to sell it, he would not sell it unless he played rocky, he was so broke he had to sell his dog because he could not afford th food, after the success of rocky he bought his dog bag the rest is history in the greatest franchise ever made in my opinion
Creed comparison - albeit I still haven't seen Creed. Do not forget the difference in 'time' between them and that's 39 years! This was Silvester Stallone's first movie! He wrote it in 3 days! Least we get into 'management'/'production' and all that other stuff that goes on, way different for both. Many as do I consider this to be thee greatest 'sports' movie of all time! A bum from the neighborhood gets a shot at the heavy weight title! Thee Ultimate Cinderella story! Rocky new he couldn't get as far as he did without Micky! He loves Micky, he's been going to his boxing place for 6 years! He trusts Micky! That's why we get that reaction from him when Micky tells him "...its a waste of life." He's probably been liking Adrian for a long time! And she's probably been liking him for a while too! The first time we see him go into the Pet Shop - they talk. She even barely smiles at his joke - looks like they cut some of that out. Nice reaction! Just need to move the video out from in front of your face.
I love this movie so much. It's almost not fair to compare it to creed because this movie hits levels I don't think Creed was aiming for. But that's just my opinion. Also, I have recently updated the format for my movie reactions, so my face is no longer hiding behind the video lol. The other reactions are better with that, but the terminator reaction is gonna be the first movie reaction with the recent format.
I say that this movie is the best; it won Best Picture which I know doesn't guarantee much but it does say something about the critical acclaim it got at the time (and still does today). Part 2 is a sequel, and I'm not a big fan of sequels in general but this one does as much as you can ask. It's not a cheap copy of the first movie, and it does build upon the characters in a meaningful way. Part 3 is a fun movie; that's all I can really say about it. The artistry is mostly gone by this point, but if you want to have a good time watching a popcorn flick then it's worth seeing. I don't like any of the movies after that. Many people will disagree with me on that, but as I said before, I set really high when it comes to sequels. I want something new and fresh, I want to like the characters and story based on what happens in the current film, not rely upon nostalgia. Very, very few sequels pass that test for me; the fact that I like II and III is already high praise compared to what I think of most movie franchises.
i recommend you another movie : *Demolition Man* (1993) _starring _*_Sylvester Stallone_*_ , _*_Wesley Snipes_*_ & _*_Sandra Bullock_* I recommend that you put the scenes from the movie in a place that does not cover your reaction.
Yea this first reaction was a DOOSEY. The original format would have had the video larger and my reaction fully showing but you can thank MGM for the re-edit lol. I would do Demolition Man but I have already seen it and its one of my favorite movies. I am deciding between terminator or rocky 2 right now.
@@DevonRucker is not MGM fault, the edit is on you , because you want to use his content. I recommend you : - Edit with % of transparency - flip the scenes of the movie from right to left - put the audio of the movie lover than the volume of your microphone Thosee little distortion help to avoid the 4lg0rythm . You need to edit a little distortion the audio and the image when you use other content (with rights) in your own video. That's how big channels do their movie-reaction .
You not thinking Stallone is a good funny.. You now need to check out First Blood. Which is technically the first Rambo movie. You will be shocked. I wont spoil anything for you.
What a shocker, you chose to see Creed & Creed 2 before watching the Rocky movies. You said you weren't a huge fan of boxing, then why did you watch Creed & Creed 2? So tell the truth, considering the fact that the Rocky movies & the Creed movies are both about Boxing, & that the Creed series derived from the Rocky story; why didn't you watch the Rocky series FIRST?? The first Rocky movie is considered a Classic, & it Won the Academy Award for Best Picture. You know something, I truly do believe that "most" black people are extremely bias.
Bro, i was born in 1990. No rocky movie has been out since I turned 18 besides creed. Plus, I liked this one more. This comment is ignorant and is baised and is from your own small-minded views on "most" black people.
Have you met "most" black people? Have you met "most" white people? How many people have you met in your whole life? One you find that out compare that to how many people in your country then decide if you've met "most" of anyone or you just have a small perspective on people and life in general.
My opinion is "based" on statistics. Most black people choose black musical artists to listen to over white musical artists; & they choose to watch black actors over white actors. Numbers don't Lie.
It definitely would've been the plot of a horror movie from her angle, at first.😂 Recommendation, know where you plan on having the footage play, and set yourself up on the other side of the screen. Video plays on the right side? Hang out on the left. Coming from a fan who wants you to succeed. 👍🫡
Rocky is a great drama dressed up like a boxing movie. Takes everybody by surprise.
I haven't watched the movie in awhile (but I was gifted a 5 pack of Rocky 1-5). And the fact that the 'Mob Boss' is actually a good guy, and told him to do his own thing! That's awesome! 😂

We're still talking about this man to this day! And as an icon!
The scene most believe won this Oscar for best movie was the bed scene "I just want to go the distance, doesn't matter if I win or lose".
That's dope. I'm so mad I'm late to the party when it comes to this series. So far, the 4 I've seen all have an Oscar worthy moment.
@@DevonRucker 5 and 6 aren't great, but they do have hall of fame moments in them. You'll know when you see them.
4 is the best
It was realistic as much as it could be...great reaction!

I think #2 might end up being your favorite.. Creed is the same quality.
Enjoyed the reaction. I think you are one of the few who got the actual point of the movie.
Thank you. I love movies so I try to pay attention to as many details as I can. I really appreciate your comment.
The mob boss was a great guy you're right!
Keep going…you will come to love these characters like family.❤️
Rocky Balboa is the greatest movie character of all time. If you watch the whole series then the Creed movies feel different too. I hope you go the distance and watch all of em’. 🥊

@@DevonRucker also, i beleive and i could be wrong, as it started as low budget movie, rocky 1 was filmed in 28 days, i could be wrong on that,
