Ip Man: The Awakening

I feel like this was a prank that went too far sorta thing. Like they knew it was a joke but after all the work they put into it wanted to see how it would go being a feature film.

The acting was so bad that I feel sorry for the extras having been conned into this obvious train-wreck.

The fight scenes weren't too bad but I feel as though the director kept telling the lead actor to NOT imitate Donnie Yen like they knew they didn't have permission and would be sewed for copyright.

In conclusion, if it were actually possible to sue someone for wasting my time.... I would with this film.

Bad. Just really bad. It seems like everything moves in slow motion, even the fight scenes seem to move in slow-mo. That's so bad.

It's just amazing to know that there are so many bad directors out there making stupid movies.

Just so so bad.

This doesn't feel like Ip Man at all. Not just that, but as far as martial arts movies go it wasn't even enjoyable. The acting was bad, the story was bad, everything about this felt really sub par. I may have enjoyed it as a bad martial arts movie more if it wasn't trying to pass itself off as an Ip Man movie.

Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time on this. The martial arts felt more 80s martial arts than modern day. The acting was rough, I struggled to watch the fights. This is not anywhere close to Donnie Yen quality.

The story line was boring and definitely not attention catching. The action scenes were really great but apart from that. Boring and totally bad compared to the previous IP MAN movies.

I will not recommend pay to watch because its really wasting money. The story is just below average same as other versus gangster stories. The story nothing to phrase on and very predictable from start to end.

A lot of the storyline are very illogical and total nonsense. The acting are poor and worse the main Ip Man cast a young man still in college but the actor is so old with wrinkles! The make-up is so poorly invested and everything is so budgeted.

The directorship is poor, stunt is poor, story is below average, acting poor, effects poor, stunts poor, nothing is good!

I cannot give more than 4/10 because this is one of the worse martial arts movie I had watched in 2021 and 2022! It really brought down the Ip Man series of movies. The quality is like year pre 1997 when HK movie industry trying to make more money (before HK handover) by quantity and neglect quality.
