Being a fan of the first Ip Man of course I had to watch the sequel. Though I found it entertaining and don't regret purchasing it I personally enjoyed the first one more than this sequel. In my humble opinion the story line was more compelling and the drama more real and intense in the first. But the sequel is still very entertaining with plenty of excellent fight scenes.The setting is British-occupied Hong Kong where we find Ip Man trying to open a martial arts school. He must prove himself as a capable master before the corrupt, locally established Masters will permit him to become an instructor. The climax of the movie is Ip Man's match with the brutal Twister, the British heavy-weight boxing champion. East meets West in this final climactic clash.
