The Karate Kid Review (2010)

I managed to catch some time out of my busy schedule to watch “The Karate Kid”. I know I am a little late; and I rarely do Movie Reviews anyways. I promise you no spoilers.

This (2010) is the remake version of the same show in 1984. Apparently, my dad said that the story line is 80% the same; but I ain’t sure. I didn’t watch the old one.

The story line of the movie revolves around twelve-year-old Dre Parker played by Smith, who is forced to relocate to Beijing with his single mother (Taraji P. Henson). He is rescued from the school bullies by Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), with aid of martial arts. Dre is finally tutored by Han, making him an expert in martial arts, including kung fu.

It was a little too draggy or too long; I’d say but it has many things one could learn from this simple movie. It was a little humourous too at certain parts especially with some of the sarcasm shown by Dre.

Nevertheless, I still think it’s a movie worth watching. It would receive a rating of maybe 8.5/10?

Here is the Trailer (I am still unsure if this is the official trailer; I am too tired)
