What to Know

Critics Consensus

Ip Man 3 isn't the most tightly plotted biopic a kung fu fan could ask for, but the fight scenes are fun to watch -- and at times, the drama is even genuinely poignant.

3/4
[Yen's] performance is glorious, the actor embodying this martial arts legend with grace, dignity, passion and charisma to burn. Go to Full Review
Maggie Lee Variety 01/29/2016
Less offensively nationalistic than the second installment but falling short of the glowing humanity, genial Cantonese humor and visual flair of the first, the pic is somewhat tarnished by its pedestrian plot and limp characterization. Go to Full Review

3/4
Yen is appealing, the story moves right along, and the martial arts sequences are (to my untrained eye) impressive. In short, a good enough conclusion to the Ip Man saga. Go to Full Review

... a handsome production and busy film with plenty of activity around a simple plot that stitches together familiar martial arts movie clichs. Go to Full Review

It is hard to say if “Ip Man 3” is better than the previous entries in the franchise. At the same time, though, it is highly entertaining, while Max Zhang is probably the best co-protagonist Donnie Yen had found so far Go to Full Review

This is an uneven mess - neither the drama nor the action is good enough to warrant a viewing. Go to Full Review

Jerrod G Jan 5 These movies aren't getting better and Donnie always takes forever to build a plot in these movies amazing final fight at the end though See more Noah S. @Noah2002 Nov 27 Story not super strong this time around, but straight Donnie doing his thing! See more Robert R @RobertRiley Aug 21 These movies may get sillier and sillier with each passing installment, but that doesn't make them any less watchable. This time around, it finds Ip Man tackling the likes of none other than a Cantonese-speaking Mike Tyson. if you can believe it. Or, at least, that's what the marketing and promos might have you believe. Surprisingly, at its heart, "Ip Man 3" is not just another unabashed effort at flag-waving. Instead, this is a rather pensive and almost quiet study of a difficult -- yet, admittedly dramatized -- period within the titular figure's life story. The fights are there and spectacular, of course (and who are we to expect anything less from that of Yuen Woo-ping), but when all's said and done, the most memorable moments I'll look back on in this movie involve Ip Man and his marriage. Oddly enough, I don't know if that's necessarily what I preferred in the end. Still, I suppose I'll stick around until these things finally jump the shark.

See more Markus L @ThaMago Apr 22 Mike Tyson is a good fighter but a terrible actor, love Donnie Yen tho See more Frannko T @Frannko Feb 6 Los personajes siguen teniendo esa audacia y carisma. Pero la historia es demasiado floja, se quedaron sin ideas y la escribieron al hay se va. En entregas anteriores las peleas se ven tan reales y tan bien practicadas, pero en esta se ven demasiado actuadas. See more Read all reviews
