Def worth a watch

This is a highly watchable movie with great cinematography, costuming and set design. However it suffers from a slow pace, confusing plot, and unclear character motivations. Some scenes leave me thinking "what is happening?" The martial arts are fun, with lots of varied weapons work. If you think you are going to get something like Ip Man well you are going to get something more like the store brand cola version of ip man.
