The words good, evil, arrogance, prejudice, and discrimination all refer to a single individual

Yesterday, I watched "Ip Man 4" and watched it as an action movie and kung fu movie. It was quite good. I liked the one-armed duel between Ip Man and Master Wan the most, as well as the outbreak of the battle at the end and the final boss. wonderful. After all, there are not many kung fu films in a year in Chinese movies now, and the outstanding ones are even rarer, and there may be even fewer in the future, so this excellent action drama "Ip Man 4" can also be said to be watched and cherished. As for the plot, I think everyone understands that the plot of this "Ip Man 4" is basically the same as the previous "Ip Man 2". It can be said that it is useful to deconstruct the plot of the previous work, and it is also a stranger. In other places, I also encountered Chinese people who were discriminated against and suppressed. They also forbeared at first, but took revenge when their friends were killed (injured). But this time, because of two things, this part of Ye Wen had a special feeling. The first is that in the film, Master Ye knows that he is dying of cancer soon, so his figure in the whole film always has a bit of sadness of the hero's twilight, especially in the final confrontation, which is also revenge in anger. But this time, the trick has always been clicked before, but this time it didn't hold back, completely knocked down the villain and stabbed the neck (a layman really doesn't know what it's called [cover face]), more like the flower of life withered completely The last bloom before. In the end, when Ye Wen once again hit the wooden stump, the crisp and thick voice resounded through the empty theater again, and there was a trace of grief in my eyes. The second is that, at a time when Sino-US relations are extremely tense, some of the lines in the film are inherited from the previous films, and they sound different at this time [smiling]. Like the previous Ip Man films, this film still has a strong racial hatred incitement, and some of my friends will indeed refuse to watch this film because of this. But for this matter, I have always thought so, the words good, evil, arrogance, prejudice, discrimination are all for a single individual, only suitable for describing a single person, not for describing the entire country or the entire race, Maybe if this is clarified, we will no longer be so easily incited by national sentiments, and we will be able to keep our sanity more. In the end, this movie is no longer suitable to be called a biopic. After all, except for Bruce Lee's participation in the karate competition and Ip Man's death from head and neck cancer, the other plots are basically fictional. Just watch it as a pure action movie. Maybe one really missed one.
