About this movie

Featuring some of the most spectacular, innovative and explosive martial arts ever staged, The Legend Is Born is the remarkable true story of the early life of Ip Man, the formidable kung fu genius who would become Bruce Lee's mentor. Beginning at the start of his journey from his initial training through to the ultimate battle to become supreme master of the art of Wing Chun -- culminating in a stunning blindfolded duel between action superstars Sammo Hung (Enter The Dragon) and Yuen Biao -- The Legend is Born has already been hailed as one of the greatest martial arts films of all time. ©  2010  National Arts Films Production Limited

Not as good as Ipman 1&2 but all in all not a bad movie worth the rental price main actor not as gifted as the first 2 movie's but the story is just as good.

I watched all of the IP Man films. Extremely watchable and enjoyable. It wouldn't have been as good if it had been dubbed in English, the accent can often spoil the film for me.
