When we last left Yip and writer Edmond Wong's version of Ip Man, his wife had died of cancer, leaving him to raise his son (Ye He) by himself. Man's fortunes decrease further when he learns that he too has been diagnosed with cancer (it would kill him in 1972) which means he only has a limited time to ensure that his son's life takes the right turning. He flies to America at the behest of his most famous student Bruce Lee (Kwok-Kwan Chan) and uses the opportunity to look for a good school for his boy. Immediately, trouble finds him. He's called to a meeting of the heads of martial arts schools in America, thinking he's just being shown hospitality as the world's most renowned Wing Chun practitioner. But it turns out they're all furious about Bruce Lee teaching kung fu to westerners. The head of the Tai Chi school, Wan Zong Hua (Yue Wu), demands Ip Man put a muzzle on Lee and he refuses, believing that everyone should be able to practice the art form if they so choose. Their disagreement almost comes to blows. Things go no more smoothly for Ip Man in the coming days. His visit to a prestigious school ends with the admissions officer saying that short of a 10,000 dollar donation or a letter of recommendation from other prosperous Chinese emigrants (like Wan Zong Hua, for instance), his son will never get into a decent American school.

While he's touring the grounds, he notices Wan Zong Hua's daughter Yonah (Vanda Margraf) being bullied by a white cheerleader (Grace Englert) and comes to her rescue, which starts the Tai Chi master on the path of recognizing Ip Man as a more principled man than he initially gave him credit. They'll need each other in the coming days because when that cheerleader tells her parents she was attacked by Chinese people, they involve INS and the military in their efforts to try and oust the Chinese from the area. As it happens there's a Gunnery Sergeant named Barton Geddes (Scott Adkins) who's been itching for a way to put the local Chinese in their place, and this is all the pretext the virulent racist needs to start cracking skulls.
The Last Match Movie Cast
Yip's 'Ip Man' films are constructed like golden-age Hollywood musicals or 'Step Up' movies, and as they were never going to be perfect history (four movies come and go without a single mention of Ip Man's illegitimate child), this is a wise and welcome decision. There's little plot, a new character is introduced, and then there's a jaw-dropping sparring scene. The great Yuen Woo-Ping steps in to replace Sammo Hung after 'Ip Man 2' and his work here is typically jaw-dropping; as beautiful as it is nerve-wracking. Yuen Woo-Ping also directed this year's similarly rich 'Master Z: Ip Man Legacy,' following Zhang Jin's character from 'Ip Man 3,' and is planning a sequel as we speak, a small comfort to fans of these film's winning aesthetics and gorgeous choreography.
