    • Trivia
      Grandmaster Yip Man did not actually fight any British boxing champion. In real life, it was actually Yip Man's student, Wong Shun Leung ("Wong Leung" in the movie), who fought a 240 lbs Russian (not British) boxer in Hong Kong. Wong Shun Leung won that fight by KO in three punches.
    • Goofs
      In the final fight, the announcer's microphone appears to be a modern condenser microphone. The film takes place in the 1950's.
    • Quotes

      Wong Shun Leung: Master, you really can fight ten men at once.

    Ip Man 2: Beyond Expectations!
    'Ip Man 2' is really spectacular. No wonder that this movie has tons of actions scenes. Even though you're not Chinese, this is a really great Chinese movie you have to watch.

    The story is pretty normal since it's a part historical movie where you can't change a lot of the original story. For a historical film, the story is not the real factor for it to be good.

    After seeing 'Ip Man', I have to say that it was good. It was very astonishing! After hearing the announcement on this sequel, I decided to check it out! Honestly, it was beyond my expectations! The fighting scenes were long enough and awesomely shot. The movie had so many fighting scenes that I say this movie is much better than it's predecessor. All those scenes were beyond my thoughts.

    The kungfu moves were also well directed. They were amazing and far cooler than the first movie.

    With a lot of action scenes, I think that 'Ip Man 2' is one of the greatest Chinese action films in history.

    Well done 'Ip Man 2'! 8 stars for this sequel!
