The Movie

 

This sexy, surreal and silly kung fu epic, based on the life of legendary Chinese figure Madam Yip Wing Chun, will have fans more than amused and entertained!

The Wing Chun style of Kung Fu was made famous by none other than Bruce Lee, and there's plenty to see in this gut busting action extravaganza, which sees Madam Yip learning the brutal and spectacular close range kung fu technique to defeat the evil bandit Tsui Siu Keung.

At the same time, she is trying to locate her long lost childhood sweetheart (played by Donnie Yen).

My Thoughts Movie Ratings

After watching this movie you just sit there thinking to yourself that if Jackie Chan was in it instead of Michelle Yeoh, it would be the same as any of the classic Jackie Chan movies of the late 70's!  It just seems to be a direct copy!  Great fight scenes, but it would of been nice for Michelle Yeoh to of at least get hurt once!  No-one is indestructable!
