Leave a comment

Watch Yip Man 2 Full HD 1080p 123movies.to Ip Man 2 is a 2010 Hong Kong biographical martial arts film loosely based on the life of Ip Man, a grandmaster of the martial art Wing Chun. A sequel to the 2008 film Ip Man, the film was directed by Wilson Yip, and stars Donnie Yen, who reprises the leading role.

Every few years or so these days, there’s another Ip Man film being pumped out of Hong Kong – and rightfully so!The man is an icon of kung fu, he was the grandmaster of Wing Chun, helped Bruce Lee find his base in martial arts and also the style of Wing Chun itself looks extremely slick when choreographed well.In the US, films like Sherlock Holmes and Bangkok Dangerous have used Wing Chun effectively in fight scenes. But what about the serious martial arts films utilizing it?

It seems that Wing Chun and Ip Man are extremely popular among Hon Kong films these days but finding good movies can be tough.While the popularity of Ip Man started with that one Donnie Yen film, there have been many films that have demonstrated the art of Wing Chun and it’s origins in quite an entertaining way.So if you need your Wing Chun / Ip Man fix, here’s a list of movies to keep you going! Warriors TwoThis 70’s classic film is pretty formula, good-guy ends up in trouble, trains under new-master and then goes back and defeats the bad guy.The difference is the quality of the film, the inclusion of Casanova Wong, Sammo Hung and of course, the excellent display of Wing Chun technique and teaching in the film.The training sequence is where the art really shines on this movie and I found it a little educational myself as someone with an interest in the martial art of Wing Chun. It’s one of the earliest movies to feature the art outside of Bruce Lee’s influence. An excellent classic Kung Fu film! The Descendant of Wing ChunThis 1978 film is one of the lesser-known Wing Chun films. This is an advertisementThis film is very much referred to as ‘an average Kung Fu movie’ but has been praised by few for having some technical Wing Chun in it.This film follows 2 Wing Chun masters training a student each.

This is an advertisementNot only is the martial art itself performed in an exciting fashion, but it’s technical, quick and carries a level of expertise that shows Donnie’s dedication to the role. He fights many other masters and even the massively popular scene where he takes on ten karate black belts in a truly memorable and kick ass scene.No one does Wing Chun on screen like Donnie.This film is praised as Donnie Yen’s best by many, and is one of the best martial arts movies of modern times.

If you only watch one movie on this list, make it Donnie Yen’s ‘Ip Man’. Ip Man 2Donnie’s back as Master Ip! This 2014 film has some Wing Chun themes in it, and is about two people, a girl named Fan and Xing, who obtain a scroll called “The White Crane Kung Fu Manual” from their Grandfather after he discovers it.After Fan attends a Wing Chun Kung Fu Festival she is spotted by gangsters who want the scroll, so naturally, they must protect the scroll and fight back.This film isn’t as well-received as others on this list but is a Wing Chun movie nonetheless!Credit goes to “Moanin Ronin” in the comments (not his real name I think) for letting me know about this one!

The Final Master. This 2015 film also features some Wing Chun action and themes.‘The Final Master’ follows a Wing Chun master who wishes to open his own school but must defeat 8 martial arts to do so. But the plot thickens as he learns he has become a part of a larger power struggle in his community.This film has also received reasonably positive reviews and is considered well done and one of the few that doesn’t revolve around Ip Man.Credit goes to ‘Willie’ in the comments for this one! Ip Man 3This film is one of the best on this list but is perhaps the most Ip Man / Wing Chun themed film ever produced.Why? Well let’s get some stuff out of the wayIp is back and played by Donnie Yen (hell yes!), criminals are harassing a school, Ip’s wife is sick and Mike Tyson picks a fight with him. That’s the short and rushed summary of the film except for the Wing Chun stuff.In this film, Ip Man is challenged by another Wing Chun Master played by Jin Zhang and has an ultimate Wing Chun vs Wing Chun showdown between both men that’s for the ages!Donnie is awesome as always and Jin brings higher energy to his Wing Chun performance than expected.

They both compete for the title of Grandmaster throughout the film which leads to this challenge match. All the while we get to know Ip Man himself a bit more personal as he spends time with his wife who is severely ill.This film is excellent and worth the watch if you’re after Wing Chun and Ip Man themed films. Master Z: Ip Man Legacy. At the time of this update, Ip Man 4 is still being made. But I thought it would be nice way to end this list by discussing the future of Ip Man.Yep, Donnie Yen is coming back!After stating Ip Man 3 was going to be his last Ip Man film, it seems Donnie can’t get enough of the Wing Chun master and is returning for the forth film.Fans who want to see Donnie Yen and Scott Adkins in the same film will finally get what they want as Scott will be playing a role in the film.It’s being released in December 2019 (at time of writing this) so there’s plenty more Wing Chun action to come! Do you think I missed any?Check out the comments below for more recommendations.

Some films mentioned below have Wing Chun scenes in them but aren’t precisely ‘Wing Chun’ or Ip Man films.I’ve done a hell of a lot of research and time on the couch (poor me, right? Haha) to find these Wing Chun / Ip man classics and putting them to the test.

But chances are there are a few I’ve still missed in the vast sea of films out there.So you may know something I don’t! Leave a comment below if there’s any mainstream martial arts films you feel are missing from this list.Thanks for reading and I hope you find something worth watching here! First thank you for doing what you do about Martial Arts films. I am truly grateful. Second Thank you for doing this Wng Chun special., I love this the very most.

I am not a MA but i love it deeply. Thank you also for your time informing us about Bruce Lee I hero along with millions of others, I am glad things still get done about honoring him,rightfully. But i am not sure about i keep thinking that Wu Jing,who i really like so very much,did a Wing Chun based movie. I am not 100% sure. But it seems so.

But i thank you again for doing this Kung Fu movie thing.I wish they would make more period pictures,like Ip Man. Maybe they will hear your view on the movie industry and do more.

I can only hope. Thank you for letting have my 2 cents added. GOD Bless Darryl. There is actually an Australian Indie Wing Chun film available, but i can’t remember the name of it.

Ill keep looking. Also you missed “The final master” which i personally place as my 3rd choice (after Ip Man 1 & The legend is born). I was not a fan of the grandmaster or Final Fight, i found them both to be quite slow & boring.

There was also a mainland China film that i found on youtube that had arguably the cleanest wing chun i have ever seen in a film, which i will try to track down. And yes, a lot of exploitation on the Ip Man front, damn I hate that.The Grandmaster is a boring movie that is hard to stay awake to, but I should mention it has a few very good fights in it. This is a movie that you might want to pirate download and just skip straight to the fight scenes.I also would like to mention, there is no such thing as a ‘grand master’ in traditional Chinese martial arts. This is a commercial thing of the last century that you see mainly in western countries, but in China it was always simply a case of masters and pupils.

Forget 'Flashpoint'. 'Ip Man' shows Donnie Yen at his brutal best. Telling the story of Yip Man, the man believed to have popularized the martial art of Wing Chun, before and mostly during the Sino-Japanese war. Yen caught my attention after seeing him in 'SPL'.

Then in 'Flashpoint', I was stunned by his moves, and thought he was the next Jet Li. Well, after this I think he may very well be the next Bruce Lee. Not only injecting humanity and superb characterization, Yen also demonstrates his brutality when it comes to fighting. And boy, it does not get more brutal than this!

Seriously, Yen's fists move like machine gun bullets. And he makes sure that his opponents are down for the count. At their expense, and our enjoyment. Definitely Yen at his bruising best. Other actors worth mentioning, Simon Yam and Hiroyuki Ikeuchi as Ip Man's business partner/friend and the Japanese General respectively. The former portrays Ip Man's comrade with heart, while the latter performs with steely resolve and honor.

This is a film that is not just made with action, but a good story as well. The fight scenes here are arguably Yen's best so far, and the best in over a decade. People are getting beaten, martial arts duels are taking place, and blood is spilled. This is not an action movie, it's a kung fu movie. And it shows.

Legendary kung fu star Sammo Hung brilliantly choreographs the fight scenes to perfection, and it looks like he's not going to slow down any time soon. The direction by Wilson Yip is slick and gripping as always, and he also gives the film a nice sepia tone to give feeling to the film. In short, great. This is a must-see for kung fu film fans to get their adrenal glands pumping. It's one of the best kung fu films of the decade. See it if you have the chance. Overall: 7/10.
