The drama is never over wrought, the action nicely paced throughout and the entire cast bring their A-game. Competently directed by the legendary Yuen Woo-Ping and utilising a decent budget (the neon drenched Bar Street set where a lot of the action takes place is impressive), ‘Master Z’ is pleasingly straight-forward, action soaked entertainment.
#MASTER Z IP MAN LEGACY SUBTITLE ENGLISH SERIES#
While spun off from Yen’s global smashing series (he produces here but does not feature, save for a few flashback clips from ‘Ip Man 3’) it may not reach the heady heights of that modern classic series but is still a solid and satisfying martial arts flick. The group make for a makeshift family with Fu encouraging Cheung to teach Wing Chun again but Kit is not far away, still wanting further revenge, all the while mobilizing his forces with local crime boss Owen (Dave Buatista) and attempting to take the reins of his own crime syndicate from his boss sister Tso (Michelle Yeoh). Cheung and his son are fortunately taken in by Julia and her kind but tough brother Fu (Xing Yu) who run a night club on the infamous Bar Street. Fists fly and Kit is humiliated by Cheung, who enacts swift vengeance by torching Cheung’s shop and almost killing his son. But no sooner has Cheung settled into his peaceful life, than his martial arts past comes back to the fray when he inadvertently stumbles into a confrontation with local gangster Kit (Kevin Cheng) who is hassling night club singer Julia (Ada Liu) and her friend Nana (Chrissie Chau). His main priorities are now running his little Hong Kong store and raising his only son, leaving his days of Wing Chun mastery behind him.
