We do not see much fighting as part of Ip Man's action in here - we see his soul and dedication to China and his values/morals. We see a man with all heart to his wife - ready to give up who he is just to be with her till the last days. We see a father who would do anything, even if that means disgracing his beings, to save his children. We see a citizen that stands up against the bad guys, single-handedly defeating them all to bring peace to the streets. And still, we see a great master.
All fighting scenes are highly precise and beautifully performed, I love the 3-minute versus battle - where 2 genres of martial arts collide and finish in a very fair act of both. Also I enjoy the moments of husband-and-wife, almost shedding a tear in the process. You can find laughter in some parts - which makes the movie closer to real-life.
Very thoughtful film which will be with me for a long time.
