The third installment of the Creed franchise, directed by Michael B. Jordan, delivers a thrilling tale about the past sneaking up to disrupt the present and destroy the future. Jordan returns in Creed III as boxing champion Adonis Creed, standing opposite Jonathan Majors, who plays his childhood friend Dame with a score to settle. Jordan’s directorial debut is a triumph, as he navigates boxing sequences with excitement and precision. Though Zach Baylin and Keenan Coogler’s script only gives just enough to not fall into forgettable territory, Jordan’s direction seals the deal and provides fulfilling entertainment.
