Ip Man and Four Kings

If you have watched the previous movies don't waste your time watching this. This only has the name. This move is no where near the other movies Donnie yen starring. This feels like a low budget copy and a disgrace to Ip Man movie series.

The IP MAN series has certainly created some classic movies lately and while this one has the name it can not be compared to the others, for the reason that this one stands alone. The cinematography and quality of filming is stunning and beautiful. Choreography of fight scenes is very good for the movie quality.

Casting is very good and character development has been done with a thoughtful process that leaves the viewer invested in the synopsis and the plot.

The classic storyline although familiar in Chinese cinema has it's own flair and style that makes it a classic in it's own right. Not fair to be compared to any other in the IP man series.

The lead actor Michael Tong brings a grace and quality to the role and is superb as IP man, and the lead actress as the gang boss girlfriend delivers a very strong supporting performance.

Very well made Chinese cinema that brings traditional story telling and great visuals to the screen once again. Stands alone in its own regard and well worth 8 out of 10 stars.
