I keep thinking, why is it so hard to make sequel movies?
How to please the audience on the basis of the previous one?
And how can we describe the characters more deeply and vividly?
Or——continue on the same theme~
After reading Ip Man 2: The Legend of the Grandmaster, I know that her movie title is wrong. Where is the legend?
If only 1 and 2 are legends, this is fooling the audience!
I've been thinking, if Ip Man is just a kung fu movie. I think at least 85 points of excellence, and as a biographical film, I think he is not a pass~ When I think about watching the movie, I applaud when I play the wonderful Hong Quan and Wing Chun against each other. , to play the kind of tragic generosity against a Western boxer, I'm thinking~ How can Ip Man do it? And that's all he does~ I'm very surprised, I don't feel like watching the first one~ I'm not excited anymore~ Why?
There is no character that impresses me, but my impression is that the reckless man is generally looking for gold. It is not a Jinshan who learns to respect his wife, but is more moderate. My impression is still the forbearance and tenacity Ren Dahua, not the crazy Ren Dahua who I thought was dead. Zeng Zidan's performance is still the same as before, if you want to see a breakthrough in his literary drama. I think October is not bad. As for Ye Wen, let's wash and sleep~~ Hey, what about Huang Xiaoming? Oh, he's there, oh, that's the "two"~ Not bad. I didn't even know that Bruce Lee had his standard movements at such a young age~~

From the first part to the second part, the changes of the historical era, the anti-Japanese-the end of World War II, the regional changes Guangdong-Hong Kong, the character changes Japan- In the West, the national righteousness expressed is so acquainted. Although in the film, in addition to respecting his wife, he also asked Westerners to respect the Chinese. Maybe it's good to try this, but it's very weak.
Fortunately, Zeng Zidan said that there would be no Ip Man in the third film, so don't be soft-hearted when you see that the box office is booming. At that time, it is Western boxing and Japanese samurai, which will make the audience feel fatigued~~

As a genre film like a kung fu film, I think the success of this film is inevitable. But it's far from the classic~ It's really similar to Chinese fast food, and the one in Hollywood is a Western fast food~ I can barely give a recommendation level, in fact, I want to say "It's okay, it doesn't matter if you want to watch it or not"~~

    Ip Man: You want to learn Wing Chun?

    Wong Shun Leung: Maybe. Just checking it out. I don't know what Wing Chun is.

    Ip Man: Let me give you an introduction. As a matter of fact, Wing Chun is a close combat style from the South...
