1964 year. Already an elderly Ip Man learns that he has cancer, and his son is expelled from school for another brawl. It was then that Bruce Lee sent the teacher an invitation to the karate championship and a plane ticket to the States. The great master goes to San Francisco to find a school for his son and at the same time see how the Chinese diaspora lives there. It turns out that private schools are not accepted without recommendations or large donations, and local kung fu masters are very unhappy that Bruce Lee is teaching white people and is popularizing this martial art. At this time, one of his students, a US Marine, was trying to prove to his superiors the importance of introducing kung fu into the army training program.

“Now hit me … if you can.
Good!
Adaptation. Improvisation.
But your weakness … not in your technique.
– Morphius is fighting with Neo.
“Well, how did I beat you?
“You’re too fast. You can do it faster. Do not think that you are fast – know that you are fast. Stop trying. Don’t try to hit me and just hit me.
The Matrix, 1999, dir. L. Wachowski, L. Wachowski
The human age is short, rarely do any of the mortals manage to get to the age of one hundred, a few pass this line. Yes, and why? What for? Having eight or nine dozen behind the matter, it decently became decrepit, the joints were worn out, there were almost no convolutions. Sorry sight. It’s time to burial. It’s time to relax. From here all the way. It is only the biblical patriarchs who were cheerful and vigorous “forever.” 930 years “smoked” the sky Adam. 500 – Noah, the ark of the builder. Abraham lived a moderate life – 175 years old.
Ip Man in the fourth part says goodbye to the audience. The sunset is offered by the director. Curtain drops after presentation. Well, a pretty decent life happened. Continuation, should not wait. And what is here in the final film?
A deep old man in front of us? The ruin of decrepitude barely dragging limbs? Not at all. A seventy-year milestone crossed the master of kung fu, but the diction is excellent. The gait is not shuffling. Eyes have not lost radiant shine. Gray did not touch her head. Clean and fresh face. Voyage to America is taking. And it is here that demonstrates its art in all its diversity. Everything is as before. Everything is as it was then.
In 2008, the project started. The success of the picture is amazing. Becoming a martial artist, sparring and fights is in applause. Calmness in the face, cold detachment without drops of arrogance, kitsch of my own I am subject to intelligence. All this, grain maturity. Not a talker. Not a talker. And not a racket. Energy bunch, its bunch. And even the Japanese on occasion, Wing Chunem wipes his nose.
In 2010, the sequel to the wave of success of the “first series.” The master is already fifty, but what is it for a practitioner every day? Is it age? And a ring with a boxer sledgehammer, the crown of history. Flexibility is still the same, “pluses are one more beautiful than another. And a break of 5 years.
In 2015, in the third film, the maestro is already over sixty. Surprisingly, he is still alert and strong. Tricks of arms and legs with quick reactions in the lead. Bruce Lee, begs the students here. Mike Tyson himself is trying to fortress the impregnability of the bastions. At what age in the East is human prosperity?
“New season is an argument of styles. Karate vs Kung Fu. Dental technology of the US Marine Corps, which has adopted Japanese martial arts and a more sophisticated, aesthetic heritage from the Middle Kingdom. Who to dominate? Which of the techniques to be a primer for newcomers of the rapid reaction troops? Words, sensible speeches can not be explained, the argument in this matter is only one – a duel. The fight should give an answer. Chinese slippers here, against army boots-berets. A real bullfight with torero and bulls was prepared by a group of scriptwriters. The viewer cooled slightly, barely took a breath, plunging into the routine of beingness, and the new duel had already arrived. With crowds, Bruce Lee demonstrates skills right on the street. Oriental masters dissatisfied with each other splash energy by demonstrating the difference in styles. The arrogant, self-confident “poles are taught a slap in the face here.
Current special effects work wonders. And that is why the cinematic language of the creators, the entertainment show for gourmet combat scenes has prepared. Here “oh and “ah with a cannonade of hooks on the body. Hands, feet, dancing racks, combat dressings. And the cat’s grace of inimitability and the nunchucks are in circulation. Spectacular movie. Adrenaline pushing into the blood.
The overall plot is, of course, weak. A lot of questions for the dialogs. A certain stupidity is seen in the characters. But this is a common occurrence for movies of this kind. And to make complaints to the guys from China-Hong Kong, the right is not worth it. Two phrases were remembered from the lips of the master. Here they are.
– If you donÂ’t have the strength to endure, then you donÂ’t need to.
– Self-confidence is most important wherever you are.
