Stunned and impressed by his skills, Wong and his friends become Ip’s first students, bringing more disciples to help the school thrive.”įan Siu-wong returns from the first film as former bandit Jin Shazhao, as does Simon Yam, Lynn Hung as Ip Man’s wife, Cheung Wing-sing, and Li Chak as Ip Man’s first son, Ip Chun. Wong leaves humiliated, only to return with some friends to gang up on him. One day, a young man named Wong Leung appears and promptly challenges Ip to a fight, but is easily defeated. There, Ip desires to open a school to propagate his art, as well as to make his living, but he has difficulty attracting students due to his lack of reputation in the city. “Continuing from where the first film ended, Ip Man and his family move to Hong Kong in the early 1950s after their escape from Foshan. Ip Man’s main hurdles are his reduced circumstances, British oppression, and rivalry from other martial arts practitioners, including the local Hung Ga master Hung Chun-nam, as played by Sammo Hung. This sequel continues on from events in the first Ip Man film, and covers Ip Man’s life in Hong Kong, which was at the time under British colonial rule, and recovering from the Japanese invasion of China. The film was directed by Wilson Yip and Sammo Hung, produced by Raymond Wong, written by Edmond Wong, and stars martial arts legend, Donnie Yen, who reprises the leading role. Ip Man 2, from Cine Asia, is a semi-biographical martial arts film loosely based on the life of Wing Chun grandmaster, Ip Man.
