So I finally got around and watched the semi-biographical Ip Man trilogy of films (the ones directed by Wilson Yip and starring Donnie Yen).
I liked them. The action scenes were really well done, you could almost tell the intensity of the strikes. The plot moves foward at a brisk pace. This movie also features a solid performance from Donnie Yen itself as Ip Man.
If you want to just sit back and enjoy what is basically a fun lie based on a true story, then check this movies out.
[spoiler=However, if you want to know the real story behind the man who is more than just Bruce Lee's master, then I suggest you the following articles]
