This is a remake movie of the Original Karate Kid but this time the action takes place in China. Dre Parker (Jaden Smith) moves to China with his mother (Sherry Parker). He quickly gets on the bad side of a gang of Kung Fu students and gets beat up a couple times, until Han (Jackie Chan) intervenes. Meiying (Wenwen Han) is the girl interest. The coach of the bullies is Master Li (Rongguang Yu) who is intent on showing no weakness, no mercy, no pain. They confront them at Master Li's dojo, and agree to fight at a tournament. In the meantime Han trains Parker, very much like in the original. We see much of China including a tall mountain and the Wall of China.
Smith does very good with handling the emotion, and reacted to the pain inflicted on him during the tournament. It is also very well done when the students of the Li Dojo pay respect to Master Han.
