"Ip Man 2" uses a similar story routine of "Ip Man 1". Ip Man moved from Foshan to Hong Kong and first confronted the Hongquan disciples in the fishing grounds, explaining to everyone that martial arts is used to learn from each other, not to bully the small. of. The duel between Mr. Ye and the heads of various factions such as Hong Quan shows everyone that martial arts are equal and should not be inflamed. Ip Man and the British boxing champion are the most in the ring, showing everyone the spirit of Chinese people who can kill and not be humiliated. The three important fighting scenes are still exciting. The last match between Ip Man and the British boxing champion always feels like Huo Yuanjia vs. the Russian Hercules.
The anti-Japanese spirit in "Ip Man 1" is relatively easy to understand. In "Ip Man 2", a boxing match was used to wash away the many years of grief and anger of the Chinese under the British colony. Obviously, it was a bit bloody. The dark corruption in the Hong Kong police is obviously a bit of a pediatrician. The "martial arts" in the movie Ip Man series is no longer a tool for personal grievances and revenge, nor is it a means to unify the rivers and lakes to become the leader of the martial arts alliance, and has risen to a national disgrace. When martial arts rises to national integrity and national spirit, it is difficult to say bad things. In the movie, Ye Wen is not striving to be strong, and he values peace.
2009 Hong Kong Golden Statue Best Movie "Ip Man 1", 2010 Hong Kong Golden Statue Best Movie "October Siege", the core content of the two martial arts works are the performance of the national and democratic spirit, and there is a noble spirit under the strong bloody appearance. With a great heart, it is difficult for the main committee to reject such works, and the golden mean is once again reflected. "Ip Man 2" should not win the best movie award. The director of the Golden Statue will not list the same type of movie as the best movie for three consecutive years, for fear that the audience will also suffer from aesthetic fatigue. At the end of the film "Ip Man 2", Bruce Lee, the most famous apprentice of Ip Man, appeared. I don't know that director Ye Weixin is not leaving a foreshadowing for "Ip Man 3".
