PLOT
In 1959, after fleeing from
his homeland Foshan, Ip Man is leading a low-profile life, but when his son’s
school is threatened by local thugs for a property builder known as whale boss,
the Wing Chun master comes for the protection. But at the same time he has to
deal with his wife’s illness and also have to face a challenge from an another
Wing Chun fighter who claims his style as the authentic one.
Ip Man 3 is the third movie
in the Ip Man film franchise, which shows the life of Wing Chun Grandmaster of
the same name and the master of Bruce Lee. As it is a biographical movie, it
was almost like a drama action, rather than innumerable fist fight, but still
every fight has its own standard. When Donnie Yen fight against Mike Tyson, he
tries to give more blows to his lower body as Tyson is very strong with his
punches. Donnie Yen's wife publicly expressed her worries that Mike Tyson might
hurt Yen. However, it was Yen who ended up fracturing Tyson's index finger
while filming the fight scene. Climax fight with Zhang jin was really another
terrific scene with fist, sword fights. Yen uses one inch punch of Bruce Lee in
the final fight with Zhang jin, to give respect to the Master of Bruce Lee. Even
though Woo-Ping Yuen (Matrix, Kill Bill fame) was credited as action
choreographer, he himself accepted that Yen choreographed most of the fights.
Ip Man series mostly gained
positive reviews across the world and is considered as one of the best Martial
Arts franchise in the world. Yen decides to stop being Ip Man by the end of 2nd
part but later due to the effort of director Wilson Yip he again became a part
of it. Now the 4th part is on production. Yip Man 3 is a pure
martial arts movie which deals different styles like Wing Chun, Muay Thai and
Boxing. It will always be a good choice for Martial Arts lovers.
