Little Review - Karate Kid

It all started with a little boy named, Dre Parker ,Jaden Smith which is also the son of Will smith. The boy is 12-year-old and living in Detroit. His mother Sherry, (Taraji Henson) gets a job in China and the all moved there. Dre had problem in speaking in mandarin and was very afraid and felt awarkward being in China. He misses home and wants to go back to the US. His mother tells him that China is home now, and he must learn to accept his new home.


At the begaining, China was protraid as dirty and gloomy from the residents to the places.
Luckly, Jaden found a friend, apparently a blonde guy was staying nearby and then they became friends.

Dre begins to like China when he falls for his classmate Mei Ying (Wenwen Han). A thin and pretty chinese gurl who speaks little simple english.

Who taught Dre the meaning of the Chinese valentine's day. They met at the playground near Dre's appartment. He was then seen to be showing off his talent as a dancer. But the cultural difference made the relationship impossible. Dre's feelings for Mei Ying are seen by Cheng (Zhenwei Wang) the class bully who is out to stop it.

Cheng, has the tyoical china look as he has the common features with the boys there in China. He then stalks Dre all around the school and created a big fight.
Dre then found out that Cheng has his own Kung Fu training and he is all out to pull Dre down the ground.
Without a choice, Dre being out of place as a foreigner there. He was beaten almost to death by the bullies when Mr. Han (Jackie Chan) the maintenance man, secretly a Kung Fu Master, stops the fight. Dre persuades Mr. Han to teach him Kung Fu.



As Han teaches Dre that kung fu is not about punches and parries, but maturity and calm, Dre realizes that facing down the bullies will be the fight of his life.
There where flashes of the beautiful mountains of the China.


It was abit similiar to the previous karate kid movies....

Jaden's acting where all natural and funny, just like how a kid should be.
It's an awesome movie as they where all so fairly talented.



And last but not least, Featuring beloved Justin Bieber...
Jaden and Justin had a duet called *Never Say Never* at the end of the show.
Which was lovely for both of them to sing together.
