After much anticipation, the full trailer for the upcoming martial arts film "Ip Man 2" is finally here. The film is based on the life of martial arts master, Ip Man.
"Ip Man 2" will pick up after the events of the first film with Ip Man (Donnie Yen) leaving Foshan and relocating to Hong Kong in 1949. The story will follow Ip Man’s early years in Hong Kong where he sets up his own school to teach Wing Chun and faces rivalry with the local 'Hung Gar' style master, Hung Jan Nam (Sammo Hung).
The film will focus on conflict and rivalry between the disciples of Hung Gar and Wing Chun martial arts. Wing Chun, as taught by Ip Man, is being viewed as a martial art meant only for women; whereas Hung Ga, as taught by Hung Jan Nam, is being seen as a macho form of boxing.
The sequel is directed by Wilson Yip and stars Donnie Yen, Lynn Hung, Lam Ka-Tung, Sammo Hung, Fan Siu-Wong, Huang Xiaoming and featuring British actor and stunt performer Darren Shahlavi.
"Ip Man 2" is scheduled for release in Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia on April 29, 2010.

The film moves forward at a brisk pace and contains a surprisingly large amount of fight scenes. I personally think this is his finest performance to date.
