yes, just like every american action movie is propaganda, or every japanese godzilla movie is propaganda. Just accept and enjoy it. Or if it bothers you, do not watch it. Not giving it attention is the best thing you can do against it.
Ip Man cinematic universe nowday is like 4 Donnie Yen films, 1 Wong Kar-Wai version (who also ruined his film career btw), 2 or 3 prequels and 1 old ip man film with Anthony Wong.
I wonder about that with Hero which is one of my favorite movies. Is any movie depicting a country's history or rulers in a positive light propaganda? Although I'm guessing if the king were portrayed negatively Zhang Yimou would've been disappeared already so maybe their hands are all tied over there.
He made fun of bruce lee, fuck ip man
Yes
haha he pee man
the first one was the only good one.
one hunnid one hunnid emoji
also the fourth is comically bad
Yes
Also why did the white people speak English so weirdly?
They are reading a translated script while trying to sound like cartoon villains.
Yes but if you can get past that the movies are pretty fun.
Alternatively you could watch The Grandmaster
>is a film where a old chinese man holds his own fighting against mike tyson proaganda?
Doesn't matter because it's fun. Same with Top Gun.
Bad propaganda on the other hand serves no function.

It's kind of flattering. The make British people look like giant unstoppable chads that can fight off 5 Chinese people (except ip man of course)
was 3 good? was the only one I skipped because I thought it would be stupid with him fighting mike tyson but it was rated surprisingly well
It's slightly dumber than the second one but has some enjoyable parts.
First movie was pretty great, the rest are stupid but have some good fights and what else do you want from a martial arts movie?
Is it made in China, by China or with Chinese money? Yes, it's Chinese propaganda.
Fuck China btw. Taiwan number 1.
It’s 100% propaganda but it’s also a sick film so who cares.
>IP man
>isn't a patent lawyer

>it's a fictional movie about martial art man holding his own against bigger fighters
>oh no they're glorifying masculinity i'm literally dying...
I thought the chinese didn't believe in intellectual property
How's The Grandmaster in comparison to the Donnie Yen series? I thought I saw it already but I was mistaken because arr rook same.
ITT Americans finally knows how it is for the rest of the world to watch one of their movies.
Yes. But the action is good and the writing is kekworthy at times. Watch all four and decide for yourself, you have the time.
The first one literally ends with the phrase "China won the war and the japanese were defeated"
is there a difference between propaganda and simply creating entertainment for the people of that nation?
