you mean 'the kung fu kid?'


Hollywood can eat my mierdas for remaking this. I can't believe they would be so disgusting. Quit trying to profit off of classics.. Jesus this is horrible..

100% agree!

Johnny: I'm gonna kill a bunch of people.

The original is not a classic IMO. Plenty of flaws in that one.

This one though, well, it lacks heart and soul. It tried too hard and came across as manyfactured...synthetic. Kind of like a Whopper made of beef vs one made with veggie burger ingredients.

One thing about the original that doesn't get much attention is that it was inspired by Jackie's Snake in the Eagle's Shadow (e.g. the fly and chopsticks scene).

Yes yes this is really just the Kung fu boy or whatever. They think they had to name it the Karate Kid to get people in the theater but people still gonna come if they called this movie by the right name u know. At least Kung fu boy or kid sounds original.
