The Karate Kid - La leggenda continua Ratings e Recensioni
- stuhannaford26 giugno 2025Surprisingly, I kind of enjoyed it. Now I’m not one for having a go at young actors, but the enjoyment however, was very much in spite of Smith. Physicality, very impressive… acting, not so much. The attempts at cool, come off as obnoxious, confident as cocky, and I never really gravitated to his character. And for that, there are two aspects working against him, outside of his control… his father, Smith Snr, and Macchio. The first is that so much of the script feels tailored to Will, his charismatic, cheeky nature, and that just hasn’t been passed down, which isn’t his fault. That being said, you’d struggle to believe he’d have gotten the part in the first place without certain influences. The second is the comparison to a beloved classic movie, and an actor who created that angst, anger, sidelined spirit and sheer will and determination to succeed, that made you cheer him on through injustice. Smith Jnr, is no Macchio, and no Snr for that matter. The story is just about different enough to be a reasonably new watch, with a nostalgic nod or two (the fly never stood a chance). However, as expected, the draw and selling point is Chan. Not in the action way you might think though. Instead, it is that of a father figure, protective and encouraging, that I wasn’t entirely expecting from an actor with his perceived range. He steals each and every scene. Unexpected.
- Zokkiie7 marzo 2026Pretty watchable overall. The Beijing setting gives it a nice change of scenery and the training montage stuff is still satisfying. Jackie Chan adds some real warmth to the mentor role, which helps a lot. That said, it’s very by-the-numbers and drags a bit longer than it needs to. Nothing surprising, but still a decent underdog story if you’re in the mood for something light.
- Oliver K.13 settembre 2025Downvote me all you like but I genuinely enjoy this movie much better then the original. Could it be the actually fast-paced fights? Funny comedy? Inspring lesson? Photos in the outtakes? Jackie Chan?
- M08Y4 marzo 2026I'll be honest. I like this film. To me, this film's biggest crime is that it is a bit dated to early 2000s American "coolness". If you can look past the dated references, you are left with a genuinely solid movie with enough heart and charm to keep just about anyone entertained. Jackie Chan has the kind of charisma that most actors can only dream of, and he brings it here. It's a genuine pleasure to see him on screen and he seems to have good chemistry with the rest of the cast. Speaking of, Jayden Smith was a surprisingly good casting choice here. A few painfully cringe lines aside, Smith is is a lot of fun to watch and a genuinely good lead. If I didn't know better, I'd expect a good career out of Jayden Smith as an actor... alas. The fight scenes are pretty good overall and you can tell a lot of work went into the choreography. The fights flow really well and the later ones really have some energy to them. The audio and visuals are nothing special. One or two questionable green screens aside, everything looks pretty good. The audio is fine, but nothing to write home about.
- tellum19 febbraio 2026You could make the argument that it doesn’t make sense to use the Karate Kid IP when the martial art in the movie is Chinese Kung Fu, which is fair criticism, but aside from that this is the same spirit as the franchise and a totally fine family movie.
- Johann21 dicembre 2025This was super fun. Jaden Smith sold it for me and Jackie Chan is the perfect successor for Mr. Myagi. I thought the message was great and the pacing was on point for modern audiences.
- James Saenz6 giugno 2025it’s hard not to compare this to the original when it so desperately wants to remind the viewer of what it felt like to strike lightning— a strike that this film never seems to be able to deliver. where daniel-san was quick witted and sincere, xiao dre comes off as petulant and uncouth. the nurturing and compassionate relationship that mr. miyagi developed with his protégé feels like it stumbles with mr. han, and this new relationship is severely hampered by the film’s need to spell everything out for its audience. a perfect microcosm of this issue exists in one of the biggest moments of the original movie where daniel develops a far deeper relationship with and understanding of who mr. miyagi is when he gets drunk on his anniversary and divulges just a tiny amount of his life story to daniel, eventually passing out; daniel’s curiosity is what allows him to sift through mr. miyagi’s box of memories afterwards and unveils what mr. miyagi himself could never say out loud. it’s an extremely sobering and heartfelt scene, and its direct counterpart in this film feels so inferior in comparison. it’s the best acted scene in the film on both jaden smith’s and jackie chan’s parts, but the screenplay undercuts the emotion in their performances— and it’s little changed like these to the delivery of the story beats that dilutes the power of the original narrative. even the main antagonist cheng doesn’t have the same air of upper class white entitlement that johnny embodied; honestly, removing the class disparity from the narrative takes a lot out of the underdog story and commentary on the lack of access to resources that disenfranchised and impoverished communities must circumnavigate to even pose a fighting chance in society. all that being said there are some funny moments, and it easily has the best martial arts choreography of the franchise so far. it’s just a shame the kung fu wasn’t filmed in a gripping way; it really makes me wish a chinese director that was familiar with the style of film and fighting took the helm instead.
- Selina29 maggio 2025Finished the last 20mins after movie
- Lucas Perez29 agosto 2025One of the very few remakes that I can remember as incredibly fun and true to its source origins. Yeah, it's not Karate but who cares? It's awesome. It's cute. It's a good time.
- Razorbitz29 novembre 2025I concur with the other reviewers: can't believe I actually liked this film. It has all the schmultz one would expect but the story and execution (and Jayden???) were great. My partner loves this film and forced me to watch it. Jackie Chan is as always the highlight and his mentoring is fantastic stuff to follow. Stands on its own two feet more than you would expect.
- Jeremey22 maggio 2025A classic tale as old as time: A kid moves to a new town, gets bullied, learns martial arts from a mysterious maintenance man, and finds the strength within. Only this time? The town is Beijing. The martial art is kung fu. And the movie title is still... Karate Kid — because someone at Sony had a stroke while proofreading. 2030 reboot prediction: A Canadian alpaca learns Brazilian jiu-jitsu from a Russian chess coach played by Joe Rogan in Antarctica. Let’s go. Jackie Chan delivers a mentor with real depth. Jaden Smith? …has the emotional range of Kristen Stewart’s hair flip in Twilight. You’ll still get underdog vibes and a solid training montage, but calling this ‘Karate Kid’ is like calling The Fast and the Furious a bus safety documentary. 0% karate. 100% brand confusion. ★★★☆☆ – Ok flick. Wrong damn franchise.
- Nahim Wazir2 febbraio 2025Rubbish.
