THE KARATE KID
Action / Adventure June 11, 2010
In Columbia Pictures' The Karate Kid, 12-year-old Dre Parker
(Jaden Smith) could've been the most popular kid in Detroit, but his
mother's (Taraji P. Henson) latest career move has landed him in China. Dre
immediately falls for his classmate Mei Ying - and the feeling is mutual -
but cultural differences make such a friendship impossible. Even worse,
Dre's feelings make an enemy of the class bully, Cheng. In the land of kung
fu, Dre knows only a little karate, and Cheng puts "the karate kid" on the
floor with ease. With no friends in a strange land, Dre has nowhere to turn
but maintenance man Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), who is secretly a master of 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.
