Watched Ip Man 4 tonight.
I will confess to being a fan of the Ip Man franchise, but this one... this one has the fingerprints of the CPC all over it, and not for the better.
I've always liked the hokey plot lines that basically mimic old-style Westerns to a large extent, but this one was over the top anti-American (and arguably anti independent Hong Kong) and basically chock-full of overt propaganda.
The punching and kicking was still good though, so I'll give it a 6 out of 10.
