Ip Man: The Final Fight. When the movie first came out, when I heard the title, the first thing I felt was that Ye Wen was completely consumed, and it could even be said to be over-consumption. This martial arts star disciple --- Bruce Lee who is popular all over the world, and the old kung fu man --- Ye Wen who walked into the public's sight, has been performed twice by Donnie Yen. Why is there a director to shoot?

It can be said that after reading the title of patriotism and nationalism, Yen Zidan's interpretation of "Ip Man Yi" is very well done. It's so addictive. Because of his unique advantages, in Hong Kong now, Yen Zidan can be regarded as the top star in the star game. In the 80s and 90s of the last century, when Hong Kong's many star-studded stars and Jackie Chan and Jet Li and other big names swept everything, Donnie Yen was still the errand boy who just showed his talents. In Jet Li's Huang Feihong, he played the villain and the ultimate boss. But it can be seen at that time that Donnie Yen is also very good at playing. It can be seen that in "Ip Man Yi", whether it is from He Fan Shaohuang's opponent scene or one dozen ten, it is very exciting. The people watching are full of enthusiasm. A Chinese-style hero is on paper.

However, after watching "Ip Man I" and then "Ip Man II", the plot and characters completely follow the old road of "I". It feels like you are very hungry, and then passing by Jingyanggang, shouting: Xiao Er, good wine Good food comes up. After eating 10 catties of meat and 18 bowls of wine, I was about to hit the road. At this time, Xiao Er came, and he was not talking about "Guguan, there are tigers on the mountain." Instead, he brought another 10 kilograms of meat and 18 bowls of wine. "Guest, you continue to eat." At

this point, I want to tell all the judges, if you want to see how wonderful martial arts are with you, I am sorry. This film is not for you. I'm not here to write this.

So, after watching one and two, I heard that someone was going to shoot Ye Wen again. I think I’m about to watch it. It’s time to reserve a seat for the brothers who didn’t buy tickets to enter the theater. This kind of film is exactly the popcorn Coke on the left hand, and the must-see for the girl on the right hand. I want to give my brothers who haven't used DULEX a little thought, so I can't take all the positions.

After a few months, the author is busy changing jobs and cumbersome family affairs, so he pays less attention to the movie. Until, pay attention, until, until one day when I was on the sofa waiting for my son to come back, I accidentally appeared in the middle of the pay channel movie program, and I watched Huang Qiusheng's Ye Wen.
I feel invested. Is it because I haven't watched a movie for a long time so I am so involved, or is it because I have confirmed that the actor's performance is wonderful. But the good shows were not very frequent, the son came back, and the wife turned off the TV without mercy.

—————————————————— I’m the end of the dividing line

. There will be some spoilers below. The film has been out for a long time. Although it is a pit, but for the sake of safety, it is still Mark the

story of the movie according to the Chinese vernacular novel narrative method: a certain person in a certain place, the camera is from the sky to the underground. Cut into a certain street in Hong Kong from above the clouds of old Hong Kong (the special effects are really not good, I thought it was a CG version at the beginning). At the beginning, Ip Man’s son Ye Zhun was used as the third narrative, but it was in the early and mid-term. It was cut to Ye Wen's eldest disciple as the third narrative, and at the end, it was cut back to Ye Zhun as the third narrative. Let me complain, Director, are you tired? Are you planning to make a detective film about Ye Wen? Several people tell stories from their own perspectives.

Although the two movies have fighting plots, and the selling points are real fights, it is understandable that the Yen Zidan version of Ye Wen with martial arts skills is obviously more capable than the Huang Qiusheng version, regardless of the moves or the scene design. The fighting scene of Donnie Yen's version is undoubtedly better. Here I call Yen Zidan's version tentatively as Young Yewen, and Huang Qiusheng's version as Middle (Old) Nian Yewen.
As soon as the young Ye Wen came up, the director placed him in a very tall, wealthy and handsome environment, and with high martial arts skills. As soon as he came up, he used a feather blanket to beat the northern man played by Fan Shaohuang to the ground. As a domestic film, this setting set the stage for the follow-up Japanese aggression and one dozen ten, which is a bit like a national hero. (Does the role definition of Yen Zidan have to be Chen Zhen and Fearless? Is it?) It can be said that in "Ip Man I", the director defined the young Ip Man as a hero as soon as he came up in the role setting, that is, the hero in American comics.

In "Ip Man: The Final Battle", the beginning is very plain. It tells that after Japan invaded China, Ip Man went to Hong Kong alone to seek a living as a lonely middle-aged man, and his wife stayed in Foshan to take care of the children. The situation has been reduced from a rich child to a wandering migrant worker (I was planning to find a job and didn't want to teach boxing, but because "people who have the ability, they have personality, and the job is not easy to find."-Movie The original words. Here, the director first sets Ye Man as a person in the task setting, and he is a person in a bit of embarrassment, "I have a martial arts skill, and a penny can stump a hero." Compared with current city life The post-80s also left their hometowns and went to first- and second-tier cities alone. Middle-aged Ye Wen’s anchorage was introduced by friends. In reality, the post-80s anchors may be relatives and friends, and they are more likely to be classmates after graduation. For example, graduation. The classmates who did not find a job afterwards settled down and found a job first. DOTA is a good friend.

Young Ip Man, originally everything went smoothly, according to the normal routine, Wing Chun is a master boxing, Ip Man practiced martial arts for a lifetime, and then got a beautiful girl , Give birth to a big fat boy, and then teach his son to punch, let his son inherit the family business. Life is perfect. But the day is not fulfilled. The Japanese devil came over, the family was robbed, tolerated. He became a dick, in his hands I have no money, I can bear it. But seeing my friends die one by one, I can’t bear it and shot it. In the end my wife was almost molested by others, let alone to bear it. "There is no man in this world who is afraid of his wife. Man. "Although this wife is a bit tricky, she still has her own heart. What's more, in those days, having such a girl to accompany you, not bad, also helped you give birth to a big fat boy. It can be said that this is totally a The heroic plot setting. The characters are basically flawless. It can be comparable to Batman other than Nolan's shots. Although Batman gets worse and worse, it depends on Nolan's Diablo series to turn around.

Let's look at the middle-aged Ye Wen again. At the dinner table where the old brother and wife sang with his apprentice, Ye Wen took another look with interest (the details of Huang Qiusheng's performance). When he saw the old man being bullied because of being molested, the middle-aged Ye Wen stood up. Here, Ye Wen didn't have any feelings for the old man, just out of righteousness. Later, the old man bought the food in the store and said that he made it for him specially. When he came to please him, he also refused the old man's friendship. I first said that I had to pay, but the old man refused, and then went to wash the dishes with excuses and put money on the iron plate. But when he learned that his wife had passed away and was in a trance, his old brother and wife took care of him day and night, and took care of his body and daily life after being discharged from the hospital, he did not refuse. In the end, because of the disciples’ objections, he moved into the old man’s residence. In the end, when her old brother died of cancer, Ye Wen accompanied her through the last part of her life. It can be said that this is the most emotional part of a person in reality. The director made this paragraph concrete. It can also highlight that as a person, especially a man, a good man recognized by society and the public will also have emotional ups and downs. After the death of his wife, Ye Wen could marry an older brother, but for reasons such as this (not mentioned in the movie, only through Ye Zhun’s mouth it was revealed that the number of older brothers was less until he got cancer). Come together. A lonely man lost his wife in middle age, and his son doesn't often help in the martial arts gym. The loneliness can be imagined. Apprentices can only bring material needs, but no one cares about spiritual ones. The old man is separated by everyone because of the social class problem. In fact, the old man described in the movie is also a knowledgeable person. Although he is at the bottom of society, he is determined not to touch drugs. Singing is not selling oneself. It was commendable in that era. Even in today's society, such people are brilliant.

Not much to say, let's pull the end of the film at the end. It is also inevitable to mention Bruce Lee. In Donnie Yen's version, Ip Wenqiao Erlang's legs were used as a stool, and he touched his nose in front of Bruce Lee's signature, and accepted him as a disciple. Everyone smiled knowingly. I'm a little bit susceptible to please Bruce Lee's pink color. Look, I, Ye Wen, is Bruce Lee's master. Everyone knows it. Bruce Lee is my apprentice.
I taught it!

But in Huang Qiusheng's version of Ye Wen, Ye Wen is a typical Chinese character. Even in trouble, even if a rich second-generation classmate is close at hand, Ye Wen is reluctant to bow his head to beg for help. Don't bow your head when you meet the powerful, but give a hand when you meet the weak, even though you are not rich and have limited abilities. When he learned that his friend had sold his sixth child in order to make a living, Ye Wen hated that he could not help others and could only help them toast. The poor and the humble cannot be moved, the rich and the noble cannot be licentious, and the mighty cannot be surrendered. I didn't get acquainted with the Baihe Gang, until the end of the game, the work has always implemented a person, how to adapt, help, and change the people around me when I am unhappy. After learning that his apprentices were causing trouble, he didn't scold them loudly, but told them to grind. This shows the metric that an adult should have. Today, let’s not talk about apprentices. As an outsider, if your child has a festival with the locals, and the fault lies with your child, you will definitely scold out loud. And middle-aged Ye Wen can be tolerant to others and doesn't lose his temper. This is also tolerant. It’s amazing, this episode has both caring for and punishing the apprentice, which is very interesting. At the end of the film, in the tone of Ye Zhun, the film said that Bruce Lee had studied for 4 years and became an international superstar. I thought the routine was to touch the nose, and then Ye Wen patted his apprentice on the shoulder and said, "Good apprentice, good apprentice." As a result, on the contrary, Ye Wen did not curry favor because of his apprentice's sudden success. He was still normal, and he was dissatisfied when he saw his apprentice start eating without waiting for him. It didn't fall into the clichés, to express the love of the master and the disciples to each other. The whole article does not give Bruce Lee a full face. It didn't say that that person was Bruce Lee. The director deliberately avoided this detail. I think the handling is very easy. Let the audience know that it is Bruce Lee, but I still don't kill you. Me, that Ye Wen is still the same. I'm still like this, Wing Chun. In the

last film of Ye Man, I used a couplet: a tree in the world as a model, the roots move from the leaves and branches; And a real image ends the whole story.



I'm not here to slander Donnie Yen's version of Ye Wen, the two have their own merits. All belong to domestic masterpieces.
