Got the movie yesterday. Just watched it. As one might expect, it is historically totally inaccurate...but it is a pretty awesome movie. I would not reference this as research if you were writing a 10 page paper on Yip Man
There is some wire work, but the fights are awesome. Also, there are parts where the moves are not all Wing Chun, but I guess it need to be flashy for film.
There is one scene that I heard the real Yip Man did. He broke a gun with his hands. Anyways, it is a good movie and worth checking out for the fight scenes alone. .
