What the? you guys didn't like Flash Point? I thought that movie was so wicked. With the MMA stuff. I actually noticed Donnie Yen likes to do more free style fighting, and to me, it actually looks a whole lot realistic than some choreographed stuff you see from just about every other martial artist actor.

He just needs to add some more flare to his hair.

yip men was a great movie, it shadowed a few of the movie back from bruce lee's old plots. (standing up the japanese)
movie was great because the story line was decent and the acting by Donnie was bearable. They really did a lot of research for this movie. they consulted (yip men's son) in this movie. THe ONLY part that was not good abotu this movie was how they made Yip Men like a freaking country hero. Yip Men was simply a guy that loved Wing Chung and started his own practice.

Jet Li did a movie 2 yrs ago called FOK YUN GAP, now he was trying a country hero and a great martial artist. Yip Men was not even close to FOK YUN GAP.

Yep, the fight in the Dojo scene was probably a nod to Fist of Fury. It was also likely a metaphorical representation at how all the Chinese felt at the time of the Japanese occupation.

I rather pay for the real copy of it in Blu-Ray or DVD since I want to support quality movies. :thumbsup:

J'zed 01-17-2009 08:08 PM

It looks like a real copy.... has a dvd holder with pictures and everything... its not like those behind the counter ones in a plastic wrap. If this is not the real copy. Im not sure what the real one is suppose to look like. Should it have holograms or something?

wow, you really should not buy any DVDs at retail price in China.

even with holders and everything, it is most likely not a legit copy.

macatacz 01-18-2009 12:50 AM

great movie.. no doubt!

J'zed 01-18-2009 06:44 AM

haha, im not sure if there is even a place now in Vancouver where you can buy legit copies of movies. seems like every asian cd/dvd store carries the same thing. Like Yip Man for example. All the stores that have them are carrying the same version... I was looking for the real one and I checked all 3 stores that sell cd/dvds and they all carry the same version. So I dunno...

stuff99 01-18-2009 01:33 PM

The only place to buy legit movies now is MAL at

 
Richmond Union Square Store:

skyxx 01-18-2009 04:40 PM

Interesting to know that MAL closed down so many stores...... Damn piracy

StylinRed 01-18-2009 05:05 PM

wasnt MAL closed down a few times because they had pirated movies?

skyxx 01-18-2009 05:13 PM

^ Unsure about those events. But MAL is the only Entertainment shop that sells all legitimate movies and music. If they did sell pirated movies then it was probably many many years ago.
