Karate Kid

Its bad enough moving to a recent city, but when that city is located in China, its al virtually likewise much to handle for 12 year old Dre Parker. Its not clean being the wise son in class when you dont know the langu climb on, and its even harder, when the cool boys use Kung Fu to rule over the other pupils at school. Fortunately, Dre meets some nice classmates, including the cute girl (he fancies) mei Ying. However, it turns out that Cheng, the leader of the Kung Fu gang at his school, also likes May, and is not oddly thrilled that Dre and May are becoming friends.Dre has hardly set rump into his new apartment, before Cheng uses his Kung Fu skills to give Dre a real beating. From this moment on, Cheng is everlastingly on Dres back. Dre becomes increasingly unhappy and longs to go back to the fall in States. But one day, as he is pushed into a corner by Cheng and his friends, he gets unexpected help. Mr Han, the caretaker of the apartment building where Dre lives, appear s from nowhere and defends Dre with an incredible show of Kung Fu. This becomes the turning point in Dres new life.Mr Han decides to teach Dre the conventional combat sport, giving the boy a chance to win the honor from his classmates. Thus begins a long training period that ends up with a final battle between Dre and Chengs gang at the topical anaesthetic Kung Fu competition. The Karate Kid is a remake of the classic 1984 spud of the same name. The new version is a well-made film that will certainly ingest the imagination of both preteen and old. The story is largely the same as the original, however, a number of elements have been renewed, making The Karate Kid anno 2010 better than most remakes.The films theme focuses largely on the inner struggle of Dre. The unexampled boy must adjust to a country with a foreign language, and a completely different culture and a city where he has more or less no friends. When he is exposed to physical abuse, the previously well-adjusted boy becomes quite distressed. But Dre has great inner strength, and as his friendship with Mr Han develops, he learns more than Kung Fu. Dre understands that he is in charge of his own fate/future, and it is up to him whether he will give up, or fight to gain the admire he deserves.Such a message is well suited for children and young people, who will hopefully use this knowledge in their own lives. This film will probably promote martial arts to many young boys, and hopefully they will understand Mr Hans clear statement that Kung Fu is a sport for wisdom and defence / an art to be used to bring forth peace, not to hurt and combat an enemy. I think the The Karate Kid has a PG rating, due to several violent scenes involving Kung Fu fighting, the film is not recommended for children under the age of 8 from the online website.
