Ip Man is coming to town. So start brushing up on your Wing Chun skillz!Yes, it seems to have some really kickass fighting scenes doesn't it? Especially when he pummels the guy - bam bam bam bam bam bam bam bam bam bam - in the blink of an eye, woah the bad guy got owned like a machine gun against a pinata.
