He just doesn't have the dramatic range that the character needs and even the scenes where he gets angry just made me laugh because the actor couldn't pull it off. Perhaps he'll grow into something special but as of yet I haven't been impressed with anything he's done and if you take away his famous last name then there's no doubt in my mind that he wouldn't be getting top billing in anything. Smith, on the other hand, just isn't an actor.yet. Henson does what she can with the role of the mother but the screenplay doesn't do her any justice. We get to see Chan with a bit more drama than normal and I thought he handled it well. As I said earlier, Chan has a hard time warming into the role but once the training start it seems that the actor gets everything together and delivers a fine performance.

Another major plus are the actual fight scenes that are well shot and I'd say they contain some pretty good drama. These visuals are certainly the highlight of the film as the vivid colors just jump right off the screen. I thought the highlight of the movie were the terrific scenes in China where we get some amazing visuals that are perfectly captured in the 2.40:1 widescreen picture. At about the hour mark is when the film expands and it generally gets better throughout the rest of the overly-long 140-minute running time. Han any favors either as we get a few really bad nods to the original movie and sadly it takes Chan a little bit to warm up to the role. I thought the first half of the film didn't do Mr. She really, really got on my nerves as she seemed so stupid as she didn't seem to understand why her young son would have issues moving half way across the world even if he wasn't getting picked on. I also had a major problem with the role of his mother who certainly should win an award for the dumbest mother of the year.
I thought the Dre character was downright annoying and I had a very hard time giving any sympathy to him. I had a lot of problems with the film and most of it dealt with the screenplay. This 2010 film starts off horribly and I was really shocked at how much I was hating this film for the first hour. That's as far as I will go in comparing the two versions. I'll start off by saying that this film isn't anything close to the original. Han (Jackie Chan) agrees to take him under his wing and prepare him for an upcoming tournament where he will face off against the bad kids. Once there Dre begins to get bullied by some neighborhood kids but Mr.
Karate Kid, The (2010) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Remake of the 1984 classic has Jaden Smith in the role of Dre, a 11-year-old boy who moves from Detroit to China when his mother (Taraji P. It isn't brilliant, but it could have been worse. Overall, for a remake The Karate Kid was not that bad. Taraji P.Henson is also credible, Zhenwei Wang is a great Cheng and Wenwen Han was lovely and cute as Meiying. I do prefer Pat Morita's more wiser and sympathetic Miyagi, but Chan does do some incredible stunts and showed real emotion in the touching scene when he smashes up the car and tells Dre the story of the woman and child. Admittedly I was worried, I feared he was too small and too young for the role, but he handles the choreography well and actually shows some acting range. And contrary to what others have said the acting wasn't that bad I thought. The Karate Kid is also assuredly directed, while the score is beautiful, the scenery is absolutely stunning and the kung fu is amazing. However, the pacing overall is snappy and the scripting was credible. I also felt the beginning dragged a bit, but my main flaw is the length, at two-and-a-half hours it was much too long. The story is very loose and updated with the bully theme still intact along with a love interest, and while it wasn't boring or bad as such it didn't always wow or excite me. It isn't brilliant, but it is much better than people make it out to be on here. After seeing it with my family, I actually liked this. Also I saw a lot of hate for The Karate Kid even before it got released, people criticising Jaden Smith and that it would ruin the original. Now I have seen some good remakes like Thief of Baghdad, and some awful ones like Psycho, and I was worried that The Karate Kid would turn out like Psycho or The Wicker Man.
I was not sure whether I wanted to see this remake. Before people question me, yes I have seen the 1984 film and I like it very much.
