Interesting to see Ip Man winning the crowd there, given that Star Wars fanbase is bigger and the franchise has been around for a long time. Perhaps because it's an Asian movie?
I had only seen Ip Man 3 and while I enjoyed the fighting sequences, the plot is not as captivating as the previous movies. Congratulations for Ip Man, I guess. 🙂
Yes, I think it is winning the crowd there because it is an Asian movie. When I went to see the film (in the UK), there was only like 7 people but I guess I did go during off-peak hours. It is definitely not as popular in the UK though and only available in some cinemas.
Same, haha, I only seen Ip Man 3 although I did see the fighting scenes of 1 and 2 on YouTube so it was quite easy to follow. I agree that this one is not as captivating as the previous movies; it seems like that they ran out of things to talk about. The fighting scenes was very good though although I much preferred if Mike Tyson and Donnie Yen continued their fight after the alarm went on. It was also sad to see Cheung Wing-sing die, I guess they won't be making an Ip Man 4. Finally, I would prefer if Bruce Lee had more than 2 scenes in the film.
