Editor’s Opinion: “Ip Man: The Awakening” (2021) effectively combines elements of Action, Adventure, History, and Drama, while adding a personal dimension. Director Li Xijie crafts a concise narrative that emphasizes character development over superficial spectacle. The performances, particularly from Xie Miao, Chen Guanying, and Sergio De Ieso, give the film emotional depth. With a runtime of just 1 hour and 16 minutes, it maintains a deliberate pace, ensuring scenes don’t drag on unnecessarily. Though not without its flaws, the film’s strengths significantly overshadow its minor shortcomings. Its tagline, “The legend begins,” encapsulates its essence perfectly. If this storyline resonates with you, be sure to add it to your watchlist.
