So.....this film is so awesome but in the cheesiest way, it is literally the Chinese version of Rocky 3 and 4 but I don't mind that as I am a huge Rocky fan. Once again I am not sure how historically accurate these films are, but once again the story kept me engaged the entire time and from the first frame with Donnie Yen (Ip Man) you are rooting for him as he is so likeable and you want to see him win.

But this film has the great addition of martial arts movie legend Sammon Hung (Hung Gun-nam), he is perfect in this film as the person who is on top of the martial arts scene in Hong Kong and his relationship with Ip Man is very reminiscent of Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed as they are almost frenemies during this film. Like I said this film is very much like a Rocky film as it has a very cheesy British villain (instead of Russian) and literally the last 30 minutes is a mixture of Rocky Films, but this film is still masterfully put together and that could not have been done without the talent behind the camera.

Ip Man movie fans and martial arts movie fans will not be disappointed and though not as good as the first film, it is still a really great film that I recommend big time. But just remember....SUBS OVER DUBS!!!!!!!
