10. “The Grandmasters” (opens August 23rd)
Asian biopics are rare in Hollywood, but Weinstein Co. is betting big on this epic re-telling of Wing Chun master Ip Man. Tony Leung stars in the title role, chronicling the life of Hong Kong’s most prolific martial arts teacher, who would end up instructing future superstar Bruce Lee. With lush cinematography courtesy of Philippe Le Sourd and kinetic combat scenes, ”The Grandmasters” could prove to be this summer’s sleeper hit.
