Inspired by Ip Man's life story, this martial arts sequel boasts impressive fight sequences and co-stars Lynn Hung, Simon Yam and Sammo Hung.

This sequel improves on the first with fight scenes outa nowhere, and Donnie Yen gives a better performance. Watch closely and see if you can find the message Ip has for not only the martial arts community, but for us as eell. It's not about who is better than whom. It doesn't have to be. Everyone deserves to be treated as equals. So why fight to compete? I hope you see the message, and see the world thru his eyes.

The beginning of Ipsloitation. Assembled from [romanticised] left-over events of the great master's life, tropes of the Kung Fu movie are rearing their ugly heads. So distasteful it diminishes Donnie's masterful, original Ip Man. The action is still great but hurt by poor setups and worse settings. Martial art enthusiasts should check it out.

Not sure why but when I purchased this just now Fri June7th, there was another Play listing of IM2 exactly like this for 9.99SD/17.99HD and this one for 9.99SD/12.99HD. I thought maybe it was extended but nope, exactly the same movie. I reviewed the other listing and this one separate. Weird.
