Master Ip Man in Hong Kong.

Finally used my Hoyts movie gift voucher pass thingy that I received from Secret Santa to see Ip Man 2. A good movie and sequel, although like the first one, a bit overtly patriotic. But again, reasonably so (the Japanese were a horrible people in WWII as in the first movie, whereas this film focused on the British, who have been arseholes throughout history. It almost sickens me that so many of my ancestors are English, but to call all English scum is to be as bad as the very arrogant ones I despise...besides, I still love many English comedians and musicians)...
* once again I've typed more in brackets than out...hahhah...typical.

And the movies are just as much about the Chinese people and Chinese history as they are about Ip Man himself. His character is amazing! Such a brilliant Kung Fu master and also one of the most modest, dignified and respectable humans that we could imagine. They are looking to make a third movie, focusing on him teaching Bruce Lee.
