Best part of this movie, after he kicks the bejeezus out of 10 black belts... Japanese Guy: "Hey! You forgot your rice!" Ip Man: "I didn't come here for the RICE!" - @Friday, January 31, 2014 2:09 PM

This story is gratifying on so many levels. Maybe you'll see it because you're into martial arts, but it's also a full blown expression of pride, loyalty, bravery, dignity, strength, strategy and emotion. An all-time great feature film experience. - @Tuesday, January 7, 2014 3:50 PM

Well it's Japanese style of sitting, not Indian. Indians cross their legs while sitting, which isn't the case with Japanese. - @Monday, January 21, 2013 2:02 AM

Idiot, thats a different style, Ip Man's style was Wing Chun, if im not mistaken. You want to see flying unhumanly possible heights and 30 spins in the air go somewhere else, and a based on a true life story. - @Wednesday, January 2, 2013 2:49 PM

@kelly980 Well, as a Chinese who is practising kungfu, I could surely say that real kungfu is what you watched in this film; they are not beautiful at all= =!. The wing chun attack seems normal without any stylish punching or kicking, however, it could cause serious inside damage. But still agree the film could have been much better. - @Thursday, February 23, 2012 1:30 AM

I was really looking forwards to this film after seeing this trailor but found it really boring. I didn't think the fight scenes were visually beautiful (like crouching tiger hidden dragon etc) or alternatively, realistic. Also,the story line failed to engage me. I think the acting and directing (apart from fight scenes) was largely good though. All in all, I think this film was let down by the script and fight scenes. Could have been much better. - @Thursday, September 8, 2011 11:55 AM

That chain punch at 1:00 was brutal, you should see the entire scene though, The actor really portrays the art of Wing Chun and it's uses against a different martial art. - @Tuesday, March 22, 2011 4:10 AM

@anhpham129 They never invaded Indonesia.... Most people they killed in the invasions of Vietnam and Korea were soldiers, the invations were utter failures, the Vietnamese kinda kicked their ass, same as the koreas, but it went a little better there, but all in all. China has yet to show it's real power. - @Monday, December 13, 2010 9:16 PM
