International superstar Donnie Yen reprises his iconic role as the real-life kung fu grandmaster Ip Man, widely created as the man who brought Wing Chun kung fu to the world with the help of his star pupil- Bruce Lee. Master Ip, a new arrival in British-occupied Hong Kong, wants to open a martial arts academy to teach his unique Wing Chun style. A corrupt cabal of martial arts masters, led by Master Hung (Sammo Hung) refuses to allow him to teach in peace until he proves himself in a series of fights against the local master, which Ip does, in style. But even after earning the respect of the local masters, Ip's troubles are far from over. Hong Kong under British rule is a new world of corruption and conflict between the Chinese locals and the British expats that run the city. When a Western-style boxer named Twister (Darren Shahlavi) comes to town to entertain the Brits, he insults Chinese martial arts in a horrifically violent way, and Ip is forced by honor to enter a brutal King of the Ring boxing match against Twister- and it's East versus West in an amazing, knock-down drag-out fight to the finish.

Cinematic Excellence!
I have watched all 4 Ipman movies back to back x's 12! The most authentic biographical depiction of the martial arts legend ever created! The true story of Master Ipman stirred every emotion within, and I hit replay again and again because I was moved to the deepest part of my soul. His life, his legacy, his compassion, I love Master Ip and his family.A masterpiece that puts you there in every scene, in every high, every low, and in between. I will treasure this collection always! I am grateful!我永远心存感激。谢谢!Wǒ yǒngyuǎn xīn cún gǎnjī. Xièxiè!

Coming from the first film, we have a sequel that is really heartwarming.
I think I enjoyed the progression of Ip Man's story in this film. You have a post World War II mentality and he's using his skills to earn a living for his family. He trains and tries to pass on his martial arts to willing students but encounters resistance. It's a great story and I think it's amazing. The first one turned a lot of heads but this film definitely progresses the story and keeps us in touch with the master.

Good story, but poor video quality in some areas
I really like the movie, but the fight scenes were very poor quality. The fight scene at the fish market and the first boxing match faded into very poor quality video, which was hard to see

Most Excellent Donnie Yen Movie
Good story; great 'fighting' (i.e. technique, skill). The philosophy of Chinese martial arts was presented very well; and showed that "pride goes before a fall." Highly recommend this movie.
