12-year-old Dre Parker has moved to China, and finds himself like a fish out of water. He befriends a fellow classmate, Mei Ying, only to make a rival, Cheng, who starts to bully and attack Dre. Soon, Mr Han, the maintenance man of Dre's apartment, fends off Cheng and his friends when they are attacking Dre and signs Dre up to fight in the Kung Fu tournament in return for the bullies laying off of Dre. Dre realizes Mr. Han is much more than a maintenance man, when he's revealed as a master of Kung Fu and Dre soon learns that Kung Fu is about self defense and peace, instead of violence and bloodshed.Written by

After Dre (Jaden Smith) and Mr. Han (Jackie Chan) climb the mountain, when they enter the temple, we see people in white clothes moving slowly and methodically, as if dancing. The martial art they are practicing is Tai Chi Chuan (literal translation "Supreme Ultimate Fist"). See more »
Goofs
During the celebration of winning the first rounds of the tournament, a photographer is seen taking pictures from very close range; under one meter. His camera is sporting a telephoto lens, which usually have a minimal macro distance of 1.2 to 1.4 meters. There is no way the photographer could have been taking clear pictures. See more »

6.4????
Then what constitutes a 4 or a 3 or a 2 or a 2??
This stupid remake gets a 3/10 from me because I am in a good mood.
It is boring, has no feel for the story and the acting is simply atrocious.
I am sick of these stupid reboots (rip offs) now. They could have at least brought in a Japanese guy since karate is from Japan.
Anyway, if anything, this proves that Hollywood types cannot criticize Trump for his nepotism. Just look at this film!
