Ip Man 2

finally, Ip Man 2

i realize that the three movies are different genre! malay, US and now back to Chinese.

this film, is all about the master Ip Man. and basically the storyline doesn't really matter, the audience pay the ticket to see him fight only.


and he didn't let us down. Donnie Yen may not be a good actor, but he is definitely one of the good looking martial arts actor. he looked YENG! *drools*

i don't know how to review about this movie, because it is mostly about fighting. and actually u watch most of the best parts here. fighting was quite gan jiong, and ouch! i feel pain for them.



to review it critically, i think this movie fall into the same Chinese kungfu movie trap again. do u realize that, all these movies, they revolved around the main character fighting against the Western people/angmoh, in order to prove that the Chinese people are not weak?

and they will go on and on about the spirit of martial arts, the reasons they fight and dignity. all those craps are repeating in almost every movie. like Huo Yuan Jia in 2006 and others.

sigh, if they cut all those craps and focus more on the plot, the movie will be so much better.

not to say i am westernized or what, just that the audience who supported Mandarin or Hong Kong movies will find it repeating, and eventually we will get bored of the same storyline. the differences is only the characters and type of "kungfu" they are playing.

i kinda like Sammo Hung in the movie. it has been awhile to see him fighting in the movie. and it was really exciting to see two great martial arts actors fighting in the film. one of the selling point of the movie. the marketing strategy works. =)


haha, he's like double the size of Donnie Yen! see, we should not discriminate fat people! hmmmphh hint hint!

okie, i shall rate this 7/10.

on the other note, okie this is completely random. when all of us watched Ip Man 2 after my last paper last Thursday, Nicholas suddenly blurted:" Eh, Donnie Yen looks a bit like Abu la..."

then all of us started giggling in the cinema. after i did some research, they looked kinda alike! im serious! i swear, i didn't edited/overphotoshopped the picture okie!

don't u think they look alike? MUAHAHAHAHA...

Just that one look mature and more muscular, and the other one look emo abit, but younger!

even my mom also said they looked alike!!!

ps: but i still love u baby! =)
