Ip Man/YMMV


 * Complete Monster: Twister the British boxing champion from the sequel. Prone to racism, open disrespect for Chinese Warrior Culture and homicidal bloodlust in his fights. The single most honest and realistic portrayal of a white Asian-hater ever committed to screen.
 * Colonel Sato, a Japanese officer in the first movie. This is in contrast to the Noble Demon General Miura.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: Where to begin? How about when Ip Man defeats 10 men at once?
 * Or the final fight with General Miura.
 * The final fight between Ip Man and Twister, especially when Ip Man is knocked down yet again, recalls Hung's motivations for fighting and.
 * When Ip Man and Master Hung fight, the casualty is the table they stand on. It is neatly broken into two semicircles. Each half is inverted, and then reused as a platform.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: Kenji Kawai is the composer of the scores to both films.
 * Ip Man (this is essentially Maestro)
 * Concentric
 * Genius Bonus: For anyone with an upbringing in a Chinese household, a feather duster very similar to the one Ip Man used in his battle with the Northerner is a source of dread for much the same reason as how it's used in the film.
 * Memetic Mutation (Going up against the Iron Man movies at the box office has led to photoshop mashups of both movies' posters, dubbed with the convenient Portmanteau Name "Ipron Man".)
 * Moral Event Horizon: Colonel Sato makes it clear very early in his appearance that he is a Smug Snake, but crosses the horizon after he coldly guns down  for losing an extra round he volunteered for. It is made especially stark because up to then the combat had all been hand-to-hand martial arts fare.
 * Twister unecessarily beats  to death in what is meant to be a friendly exhibition match. Rather than showing ANY remorse at the press conference held for his innocence, he gleefully mouths off about how he is going to murder every Chinese Warrior in the next match held to clear his name.
 * Sequelitis: The horribly-rushed (and horrible) "prequel" Ip Man The Legend Reborn is so terrible (tacky soap opera romance, gross mis-representation of Wing-Chun) that it has been declared as Canon Dis Continuity by the fans of the first two films in general and Wing-Chun practitioners alike.
 * Well, it really isn't part of the Ip Man movies by Wilson Yip. The Legend is Born was directed by Herman Yau, but they reused a lot of the same actors.
 * Tear Jerker Twister's sadistic, cold blooded and brutal murder of.
