Espnknockout on Instagram asked its fans to name their favorite of the Creed and Rockey series. One fan voted for Rocky IV, and lauded its photography and soundtrack “Rocky 4 was the best ppr argument by scenario photography by script and soundtrack and it was in line with the end of the cold war and the fall of the pereztroika and the iron curtain… for that and for more rocky 4”. Two more chose Rocky III, for how the fighters ‘moved’ and ‘danced’ inside the ring “Rocky 3, how he moved and danced in the ring”.

Another fan pointed out that all the Rocky movies were amazing but III and IV steal the top positions “of the Rocky saga there’s a lot of parity, they’re all excellent but particularly 3 and 4, and l asaga creed the 3rd didn’t appeal to me much, but we’ll see if anything comes later.” Another fan has Rocky 4 and Creed II in his list of best movies. “Rocky 4 and creed 2 in that order.”
