Though made after "Ip Man" and "Ip Man 2", this biographical film takes place earlier. It shows Ip's early life, how he began to learn the Wing Chun fighting style at the age of 13, before going on to get a formal British education when he was 16.
The film's action, like those in the two preceding films, is very realistic. It can't be compared with the extravagant wire fu fights in films such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". The opponents in the Ip Man films don't carry out movements that deny the laws of physics. Nevertheless, the fights are stunning. The film is further enriched by the historical background of the Japanese pressure on China in the early 20th Century, and by the romance in Ip's early life.
