Highlights:
- A blend of Cinderella Man and Rocky 4, the film takes the engrossing action shown in the first part to even bigger levels.
- The Table fight sequence & the final ring encounter are as good as fight scenes come!
- Donnie Yen maintains the aura that he displays in the first part and accumulates respect for the character of Ip Man - the Bruce Lee guru!
- The theme song adds to the 'Inspiration' quotient.
