What Master Z: Ip Man Legacy is
You park cars in a Colonial-era bar where sailors argue over cheap whiskey. Then a backroom brawl spills into your alley and suddenly you’re trading jabs with triad lieutenants again. Every bruise feels like a currency you can cash for tuition. Wong Kar-wai shoots neon-soaked alleys like a postcard from another city.
