Before Bruce Lee, There Was Ip Man..

Rating: 8/10 (31 January 2014)

Ip Man like the film title is based loosely on the legendary Wing Chun's martial artist who is the mentor of Bruce Lee, when he brought Wing Chun to Hollywood and impressing the westerners.
Ip Man was finally put into film after getting approval from his family members.
Ip Man tells a story of a humble man and his family yet the fight scenes are just part of the excitement to attract people. Ip Man's personality is rather simple and often avoid troubles as possible. He has shown his moral values towards his friends and family which seems to promote the Chinese culture of respecting the elders and so forth.
And to let the world know what is Wing Chun. Like the film, Ip Man do not accept disciples because he is afraid if people misuse his martial arts for the sake of getting into trouble and having fights which could damage his family name, master name and also reputation.
This is a beautiful biopic film that one must watch! Absolutely brilliant film!
