The legend of the master, living up to the mission

When I was a child, I liked watching movies where good people beat bad guys. Whether it was Wong Fei Hung or Fang Shiyu, every time I saw a good guy being killed by a bad guy, I would always clench my heart tightly, comfort myself and relax my heart at the same time. It's okay, the good guys will definitely win. Under this premise, if the better the good people are abused and the harder they fight back, the better the movie will be. But director Ye Weixin doesn't seem to think so. He likes to use his works to arouse the audience's patriotic enthusiasm, stimulate the audience's patriotic instinct, and finally help the audience to vent their patriotic anger after being transformed.

I don't think it's bad. Because after watching the movie, I was very happy, just like I just smashed my fist on the face of the dead foreign devil like raindrops, and it would never stop until I died, my eyeballs were shattered, and my brain was splattered.

"Ip Man 2" carries forward the most honest side of Chinese martial arts, with one main theme: learning kung fu is not for beating people. But I think in that kind of environment, if you don't beat bad people after you finish learning kung fu, you might as well save your tuition and give it to the poor begging on the roadside.
Huang Xiaoming's response has not been very good, and it is said that he has played very two-actor two, and the role is also two. But when he came on stage, I kept laughing, why did he focus the scolding on him when he acted well.

Sammo Hung's performance is good, his boxing is powerful and powerful, it is even more domineering than Donnie Yen's Wing Chun boxing. The comparison between the two can almost be described as heavy machine grabbing and step grabbing.

However, in my eyes, the best actor is not Donnie Yen, but the boxing champion Tornado.
He successfully detonated the anger of the Chinese people with the arrogance of foreigners, and every time he clearly told everyone a subtext.
That is, we foreigners are the most powerful, you Chinese are not good at all, but you are all one litter. ——Well, I may not express it very clearly...
In short, the successful teasing of this fierce man made most of the Chinese who watched this film want to kill him with their own hands.
This kind of reaction is really not easy to put aside now.

About two hours of film, it feels like an instant has passed.
I thought that there would be some other stories to pave the way before the competition, but I didn't expect to be single-handedly attacked so quickly, and it was over.

One of my favorite lines is that Master Ye said to Master Hong, "Eating is more important, or is it more important to win or lose?"
This scene made me feel a touch of warmth in this martial arts film. Heroes also need human touch.

I am looking forward to "Ip Man 3". I hope that by then, I can still have such a passion that can be easily ignited.
