I tend to be less than 50/50 on liking remakes. I liked Star Trek. I won’t even see The Karate Kid.
This one is a don’t miss, though. One of the best lighthearted action movies that has been released in a while.

The whole B.A vs Murdoch scenes were just like the classic TV show!!
I laughed when Murdoch did that William Wallace/Braveheart bit!!!
Two words: Jackie Chan
Miss Karate Kid.
There is one fight sequence with Jackie. It’s mostly how wonderful China is. Great scenery, horrible remake.
Jaden Smith is a pimple of a boy. Not even plausible that this kid could beat anyone. And the 12-year-old romance didn’t work at all.
We watched the original after and it only showed how much of an opportunity the Smith family missed in not utilizing Jackie Chan.
