Tinsel & Tine #MiniMovieReview & Press Conference for CREED III Michael B. Jordan directed and acted at the top of his game, but somehow this is Jonathan Majors‘ movie. His character Damian “Dame” Anderson is a force to be reckoned with. Majors’ perfected his chewed off speech pattern, domineering body language and menacing street fighting boxing techniques. But what’s even more impressive is his feigned earnestness, such a master manipulator. There’s a reason why Jonathan Majors is getting so many opportunities since the stellar HBO Max series LOVECRAFT COUNTRY, it’s because he’s electric!

This 3rd entry into the CREED Franchise and God knows, I’ve lost track what number of the Rocky Franchise, has a good story-line, you know where it’s going, but you want to follow it there. We see Adonis and Dame as kids, the tables are turned and Dame’s the one with dreams of boxing glory and Adonis is his sidekick. The two make a quick stop at a convenience store, where Adonis starts a beef with an old tormentor, but Dame finishes it and is sent to prison.

Cut to 18 years later, and everything we’ve been through in the first two movies with Creed and his now wife, Bianca (Tessa Thompson). They are still very much in love and have a young daughter, Amara played by deaf actress Mila Davis-Kent. Neither of them are hungry anymore. They’ve both tasted big success. Adonis is mentoring the next great heavy-weight champion and doing promotion. Bianca is producing other artists. They enjoy home life in their absolutely F’n gorgeous LA mansion. The set designer really went to town making this show place not just feel like a home, but their home. They love spending time with Mary Anne (Phylicia Rashad) who adores being a grandmom. All is sweet until Dame is freed from prison and comes calling. He knows he has no time to waste if he’s going to regain all that he feels was meant to be his.

Jordan’s directing style is smooth. The film has a nice gloss. The fight choreography, like with all Rocky movies, feels like we’re witnessing a true high stakes match. From the looks of things, they’ll be a 4th installment with Amara lacing up the gloves, and I’ll be ready to sit ringside.

It was a particularly good #pressconference2023 In Attendance: Michael B. Jordan , Jonathan Majors, Tessa Thompson, Mila Davis-Kent, Ryan Coogler, Keenan Coogler, Zach Baylin, Florian Munteanu, Selenis Leyva, Wood Harris
