The sum total of anime cinema from the early ’90s to present day is marked by the precedent of Katsuhiro Otomo’s Akira.

The sci-fi films now available run a gamut of different styles, from iconic anime such as Akira to critically acclaimed works like Blade Runner or horror films that blend genres such as Come True or 2022 Predator prequel Prey. I can't wait to see more from the talent involved in this film, and I proudly endorse and recommend Creed to Rocky fans and film fans alike.The Hulu library tends to be something of a mixed bag for most film genres, science fiction included-films come and go fairly rapidly, making lists like this one that much more valuable. This film exceeded my wildest hopes of a 7th Rocky installment and had me feeling amped up for hours after the credits rolled. I'm just so happy to say that this film wasn't a disappointment. I'm not ashamed to say I was brought to tears at various parts of this film. Speaking of, the script would be for naught if it weren't for the beautiful performances by Michael B. The subtle nuances that we love about the Italian Stallion are effortlessly worked into the script and flow like water from Sly's crooked mouth. What stood out the most, however, was his writing of Rocky Balboa. The way he masterfully captures the modern spirit of Philadelphia and the visceral tension of standing toe-to-toe with a man who wants to see you hit the ground is second to none. I can't say enough great things about writer/director Ryan Coogler. Yes, I'll return to theaters to see the fights, but it's the characters, particularly Rocky and Adonis that truly captivated me from start to finish. It wholeheartedly captures what was so brilliant about the first film: the characters. From start to finish, this film exhilarates and crackles with brilliant on screen performances and masterfully directed fight sequences. There's no other way to say it Creed is a knockout.
