The ending was hasty, the "get up and fight" style was repeating the IP2's style and the one on one fight was short. So when you watch it and you see Donnie fighting against groups or tons of people, that's the part you have to enjoy it, because the one on one fight, which I thought was supposed to be the best part was brief. By using the phrase "get up and fight", I meant the sudden motivation that the fighter receives or dream about within seconds when he is knocked out the first time, to give him the strength stronger than when he had full focus. If you have watched IP2, you would be familiar that when Donnie fights a one on one, he is expected to win, because this is just a movie. But in order for him to win victoriously, he has to go through some difficulty in the first stage of fighting before he gets up and fight again from his instant, seemingly divine motivation. So obviously that happen. I think directors that get him to do fighting films again should try to be more creative in this area.However, what I write here, should not discourage you from watching the film, but its definitely worth a visit. Its a based on a true story of how he rescued his other chinese men from france back to China. And divinely ran into a series of firing shots at him being untouched, armed with only 3 knifes, when in to kill the shooters. Something interesting that repeated from IP man2, the head police was in charge of the chinese men, getting them to do the job and he called the chinese men "CHINKS". And later in the film, the chinese men fought back with his flowery words. This once again show the racism between Caucasians and Chinese which are real today.
Shuqi plays a supporting lead in this film. She acts as a singer, and Donnie's girlfriend and a traitor to the Chinese, working for the Japanese. She was killed in the end. 3.2/5.
Look who's at the piano.
