WING CHUN IN FILMS: KUNG FU WING CHUN

OK now this one is a REAL GEM!!

Remake of sorts of the Michelle Yeoh starring Wing Chun.

This is great, the lead actress is Jing Bai, if I remember that correctly, and i found her to be brilliant. A little comedic at times and good with it, like all the classics like Prodigal Son for one, and I swooned myself when she was on-screen.

Was let down at the very end by not getting its dates and ages quite right, a certain meeting is not quite possible if I am not mistaken. A young Ip Man meeting Wing Chun would have more likley been Leung Jan and I doubted immediately that Ip Man could have even been born...

...but maybe I am wrong on that.

Also of interest is that I HAD TO ORDER from OVERSEAS and when it arrived I thought I had ordered a BLU-RAY copy and was only a DVD.

Was either www.cdwow.com,or co.uk, or another called Asia something or other, lol, and will edit this when I recall the name!

EDIT: www.yesasia.com!! LMAO!!

9.5 out of 10 for me this one.
