Creed

This continuation of the "Rocky" franchise focuses on Adonis, the raised-in-privilege son of former heavyweight boxing champion Apollo Creed, whose family would prefer that he not follow in his father's footsteps, given the tragic end to the elder Creed's career, and life, in the ring -- but Adonis, who possesses tons of natural boxing ability and a secret, irrepressible desire to compete, finds a trainer and mentor in his late dad's ex-rival and friend, Rocky Balboa.
