The Karate Kid with Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan ... I rather watch a boring episode of The View !
Seriously ! How many remakes are Hollywood producers going to jam down our throats as we waste gas and valuable time digging our fingers in popcorn and chugging soft drinks waiting for these boxoffice eyesores to end.
Childhood stud moves to China ... meets girl and bully gets jealous... then there is hip-hop dancing and fights involved ... Oh boy let's go watch ... Na thanks ! How much dancing and childhood fights on the big screen can one stomach ? Then Jackie Chan starring as the school maintance worker ... anyone ready for some martial arts action down in the boilerroom ? How about a broom to the face with a backflip ... followed by a High Ya kick !!!
There is a cultural difference between the kid and his crush ... oohh aww ... she plays the violin how nice ! Then there is a disapproving teacher who thinks she should be bearing her mind in her work instead of going around with the bow-wow looking kid who is acting like Chuck Norris . We are in 2010 and their throwing karate movies at us still ? Shouldn't we be watching hightech cars flying in the air with big muscular heroes and attractive women fighting gangsters out of New York City or LA ? Instead we are watching an urban city kid moving to China with his mom ... You could've least put Yao Ming or Eminem in the movie ! Hell I'll settle for Kid Rock!
Wikipedia gives away the whole movie ... even the ending ! Classic ! It just shows you how this movie will be when an electronic encyclopedia gives away every factor of a movie... That's funny !
So I won't give away the big clincher of this upcoming box office bust ! Just want to say its the typical thing that happens in all martial arts movies ... The villian takes a cheap shot and the heroe walks out on top.
A definate 1.98 movie at the local video store !
