What it is about
A visually refined chronicle of Ip Man and the masters of northern and southern styles in China between the world wars.
The fighting in it
The only Ip Man film that also presents Baguazhang and Xingyiquan as schools in their own right. Yuen Woo-ping's choreography is built on the differences between styles rather than on spectacle.
