If you loved Ip Man 2, try Ip Man

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Wilson Yip, and they both carry the foreign gem, raw, uplifting mood tags, and they sit in Action / Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ip Man 2, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ip Man is

Foshan, 1930s, rain-soaked streets. A wealthy martial artist teaches Wing Chun, a Japanese invasion looms, a community faces occupation. Donnie Yen brings gravity to the role of a legend.
