Ladies and Gentlemen! Today is a miraculous day for it seems Wong Kar Wai may actually have finished a film. Wong has been working on The Grandmasters for some years during in which time we’ve had two films starring Donnie Yen among others to have dealt with the life of Ip Man – the man who taught Bruce Lee. Numerous problems and delays have seen the production of this film constantly in flux with release dates slipping over a period of years yet the film now seems to have a fairly solid date for its Chinese release – 18th December 2012. Assuming all goes well (and the film really, actually is finished) Chinese viewers at least will finally get to see Wong Kar Wai’s latest collaboration with frequent leading actor Tony Leung. Of course even if this date is kept to there’s no predicting when we will finally be able to see this in the West (well, the Anglophone world) but happily it is a matter of when rather than if Wong’s version of this now familiar tale will finally hit our shores. The trailer at least looks spectacular so if that’s anything to go on The Grandmasters could be something very special indeed.

I loved the trailer! Slow motion fighting in the rain, striking cinematography and lighting, slow motion and beautiful people! It looks like the genius has returned to filmmaking! I cannot see this film being terrible! It’s just not possible!
It looks amazing, doesn’t it? I can’t wait to see Wong Kar Wai back in the action genre. I’ve high expectations for this indeed so I hope we get to see it soon
I was wondering when this movie was going to be released…
