What "Man" is that this time?

It's quite funny when first saw the English title for this movie -- "IP MAN". Some of the people commented that, they thought it's another hero again, some sort like spiderman, batman, superman or what.....

Ip Man is a man, no doubt about it. But the "Man" here, is not English, "Ip Man" actually is the Chinese name of the main character himself.

This movie can say is a black horse, because it's not a new topic, many other movies had already used Chinese hero as main character and described how they fought with the invadors (Japanese and british most of all) during the World War.

However, this movie somehow has received great positive response from the audience and it has become the blockbuster. Maybe you will see a difference when you watch it.
