The Karate Kid


A completely relaxed and heartwarming film that is surprisingly enjoyable despite being utterly predictable the whole way through. Jaden is incredibly likable in this movie, unlike some of his past performances (The Day The Earth Stood Still comes to mind). Jackie Chan is as well, showing he can play a dramatic part as well as all the kung fu craziness he's done in the past. I haven't seen the original in a very long time so I can't really compare them, but I liked this movie quite a bit. It's sweet and endearing.
