Notes:
*I thought this looked pretty awesome, but I never watched the first one so I was going to pass.
*Apparently it's pretty much a completely new story than the first so I decided to go ahead and watch it now.
* I haven't seen any films from director Pou-Soi Cheang, but I have heard of some.
*Lai-yin Leung also wrote Ip Man 3 so that's a plus.
*This is the only writing credit for Ying Wong though.
*I hope this is as awesome as it looks.
*Thank goodness for Netflix and the content it shares.
Pros:
*When the fight scenes they are intense and fun.
*The soundtrack they use was interesting.
*I really liked the characters and the acting.
*The story was pretty good with a few unexpected twists to things.
Cons:
*There weren't as many action scenes as I was expecting.
*It felt a bit all over the place in some moments.
Verdict:
This was an interesting action drama with some great fight scenes. There could have been more, but they did focus a lot on the dramatic side with this one as well as the fighting. It keeps you invested in the story and characters. There are bits that could be improved here and there. All in all I liked it and would say to give it a check out.
