Why I LOVE The Karate Kid (2010) with Jackie Chan & Jaden Smith

Thats right, you heard me. I love the Karate Kid movie and i dont care that its not called the Kung Fu Kid. And if that doesnt bother me, it shouldnt bother you. Right after The Shaolin Temple Movie from 2011, the Karate Kid is probably my second favorite kung fu film, although thats not for its fight scenes but for other reasons. Enjoy the video!

When I was in school, I used to learn Taekwondo. The Karate Kid was just released, so our Taekwondo master told us to watch it, obviously because there was Jackie Chan in it. So, my dad bought me a DVD of that movie, and I watched it. I really loved it, and also motivated me in doing Taekwondo, and for the competitions. The best part of the movie other than Kung Fu is its music, especially during the scene when Mr. Han and Xiao Dre are climbing that mountain. I often listen to that BGM. Great review @Ranton. It brought back all the beautiful memories of my childhood. Love from India.🧡 Please review the Ong Bak series of Tony Jaa as well.

[@vedomedo]

I loved the movie as a kid, it really just hit the right spot in my opinion. It's also very wholesome to hear about your experience watching it and re-living your own experiences. It's crazy how much movies / books / stories in general can just hook us in and make us feel both really good, and really bad.

@@xXstabtolifeXx you seem to be confused. it is very common to compare a remake from it’s original. this is a public platform. people will share opinions. no one cares? speak for yourself. I care, that’s why I expressed an opinion. just like you expressed an opinion. nobody asked or cared about your opinion. yet you expressed it. don’t make the mistake to believe that you can police other people’s opinions. or that what you have to say is more relevant than what I have to say. that would be buffoonery, don’t you think? you can deal with people having different opinions.

[@Hmty2383]

I have similar feelings towards this movie, as it also has a nostalgic value to me and made me respect the art more beyond it's showmanship. The scene where Jackie Chan says "Kung Fu lives in everything we do, in how we treat people" made me cry when I saw it, hit me deeply at that age (15 years old). Those years were tough for me because I just moved from the old big city I was living, leaving behind dear friends and more, and my new life was way more crude and hostile: people were more mean, had a hard time making new friends and had to put up to the aggressions at some point, but it never made me felt at peace... It made me bitter, hostile, rebellious, distrustful of people and myself. At some point, I felt lost and hopeless, as I thought that the "survival of the fittest" were to become an absolute rule for the rest of my life, then clarity came back to me, and that scene reminds me of this a lot. It wouldn't matter if some bad people call you names or just are assholes to you, it doesn't have to make you one, respect is something to be earned, but it wouldn't matter if you can't respect other good people, and yourself. Unfortunately I never got to practice Kung Fu as self-defense, I got to learn the hard way haha, it could've been so badass if I did, but still I found my way back into life soon after :)

This video truly epitomises why ranton is probably my favourite youtuber, he has that crazy hyper, borderline mental sense of humour and his equally as crazy editing style but he also makes these breakdown videos and you see a completely different side to him, how intelligent and passionate about martial arts he is.

And you normally see people 100% simping for whatever their thing is and deny all wrongs or they point out all the wrongs of what they hate without ever admiting the good side. But he doesn't do that at all. He spreads love for Kung-Fu but will straight up tell you about the fucked up stuff surrounding it.

Ranton is a super well rounded person and it shows in the multiple ways he can handle a topic. Or cover many different topics

[@Zorisura]

​@@Trojeans This is my go-to movie if I had a kid. Perfectly shows how hard work, discipline, and respect should be included in our lives. As well as openly experiencing a culture you're not used to. My gramps showed me this and my dad brought me some pork ribs cause he knew I loved this movie. Also in the fact that I love and want to experience/travel to the different cultures of the world. This movie is the foundation of that dream.

[@Pale_7567]

I love that movie, the best parts being when he starts getting what Mr. Han is saying, the festival scene, the journey up to the mountains, the emotional scene of Mr. Han maintaining a car only to smash it for reasons you need to watch the movie to know. It’s all so good, hell the small moment before the start of the flight where he tries out like some beginner level Chinese on someone and then they go “Dude I’m from Detroit”

[@RamseyDewey]

I saw this movie after I had been living in China for a year or so. It's called 功夫夢 "kungfu dream" in Chinese, so I didn't get hung up on the karate part of the title. I did, however, get bummed out that unlike the original film where the protagonist wins the tournament with the technique he's been practicing throughout the whole movie, Jaden's character pulls a deus ex machina out his butt with that backflip kick he has never once attempted before. But I Iove the reasons that you love this movie. After living in China for 16 years, I now recognize all those places you talked about. I've walked those streets, I've climbed climbed those stairs up the mountain in real life (and many other stairs on many other mountains!) It brought back some amazing memories. Thanks for being positive in a world that so desperately needs that right now.

[@travesty-studios]

LOL not me reading Ramsey Dewey's comment without realizing 😂😅😂

[@RazziPermana]

As someone very unfamiliar with Kung Fu but very familiar with the Karate Kid movies, I loved this 2010 version because it's basically a retelling of the original but with different source material (Karate -> Kung Fu). Maybe I was their target audience, but rewatching it recently I think it hits the emotional scenes better and wow the fight scenes don't hold back, they have this raw grittiness to it. Maybe a remake is what the KK movies needed. Love it.

[@larifax-8107]

Yeah but this time maybe with a good main actor

[@dyztroyax4628]

​@@larifax-8107 They had a perfect one.

[@coinstudiosmoviescartoonsa1978]

they should have just made it it's own thing and called it the kung fu kid as both this and the originals are taking on 2 separate tones and 2 different cultures, which makes them basically different films.

[@workindad]

Idk, while I liked the idea of a new version of KK I just couldn't see Jackie struggle fighting a bunch of 10yo's the way he did. Almost any fully grown adult could've beaten them without any training and that ruined Jackie's reputation for me. Furthermore I've never met a group of kids that wanted to fight a fully grown adult like that. Jayden's acting wasn't that great either and he constantly argued with his master over everything which also made me not like the movie that much. Overall I gave this movie 4/10.

[@hartfantom]

Nah, I’ve always been a big defender of this movie. Underneath the unreasonable title name this movie was given since it should’ve been called Kung Fu Kid, I still none the less LOVE what we got. No, it’s not perfect but to me, neither were the Karate Kid movies. To me, in every conceivable way. This karate kid is the best. It’s just unmatched to me in terms of story telling, acting, and music. Dre is simply lovable as he isn’t an aggressor like Daniel, he makes his mistake of trying to “strike back”, he learns how to fight but learns it humbly, but NOT ONLY THAT. When Mr.Han was broken down in a drunken depression for what was a really dark and heartbreaking scene, Dre lifts Han up, no words, just pure love for his Kung Fu Master, or rather even his father figure. It says a lot. The bond you feel with Han and Dre feels far more personal and full of love than Daniel and Miyagi had in their first movie. People never gave this movie a chance and I understand to a degree. The movie shoulda been called Kung Fu Kid but it was GENUINELY a phenomenal movie.

I loved that movie. I think it captured the spirit about training from Karate Kid and basically transferred it into another martial art. Styles change, even go out of favour, but the underlying message of Karate Kid should never be lost.

Funny you mention the styles being similar to fire and water because in ATLA, fire bending is based off of Shaolin Kung Fu and water bending is based off of Tai Chi :) Also with the splits and stretching, I believe they really made Jaden become flexible because Jada mentioned how she demanded that Will make them stop, but he and Jaden decided that he should stick it through and continue all the way~

[@SiLvErWaRe000]

I love this movie. Saw it in theaters when it first came out. I always took Mr. Han's speech about Kung-fu to mean that if you do something enough it becomes a part of who you are. So be careful of which behaviors you let become habits, as they may become who you are.

8:19 I love the trope of doing chores to learn martisl arts, I think its funny and a bit inspiring. I don't know how common it is, I watched a movie awhile ago that was older than "The Karate Kid (1984)," that sort of had this trope, "Return to the 36th Chamber."

I saw this movie on TV for the first time a few years ago, having never seen the original Karate Kid. At first, I was only sneaking a few glances at it while I paid more attention to what I was doing at the time, but it very quickly became the sole focus of my interest. While I often give films some degree of leeway for realistic portrayals of certain things, it still felt honest and made with real love. I can't speak for how Beijing or Chinese culture was depicted, but I can speak of what it's like being a young black kid in an unfamiliar environment, and Jaden Smith's performance really struck a chord with me. Even though I expected Jackie Chan's role to be my favorite (and he was downright SPECTACULAR in this movie), I empathized with Dre's journey and growth through the film. I'd also love to see another 10 hours of it. If the original Karate Kid could have two sequels and a spinoff show, I wouldn't have minded this narrative expanding as well.

Interesting to note, karate originally meant "Chinese Fist" Most styles come from Northern Shaolin. The one I practiced in high-school was from white crane.

What he means by "Kung Fu is about making peace with your enemies", is that once you show your enemies that you can fight back, they are more likely to want to negotiate or call a truce rather than fight you, as bullies are often cowardly, and will never fight unless they have the advantage.

[@thecavalierpanda]

7:10 I always found that when Jackie Chan said "That's not kung fu. That's a bad man who teach them very bad things." it reflects his disapproval of the instructor's approach and highlights the difference between authentic martial arts, which emphasises discipline, respect, and self-control, and the violent and harmful methods being taught by the "bad man" rather than whether or not he's teaching them proper martial arts.

[@jtnachos16]

One thing I personally REALLY like about that silly looking knockout kick is that they actually have him actively trying to save himself from falling flat on his face afterward. It's a little acknowledgement of just how absurd such a kick is, not just for the motion itself, but doing it with sufficient force to do anything to an opponent.

Whilst Jaiden's Karate Kid movie was corny at times, I personally enjoyed it as well. My reason though was due to the connection/interaction between student and master. Having Jaiden be trained by Jackie, but Jackie also learning from his student as well (learning to overcome guilt, grief, and bond with his student) made it seem less like some "wise old master who knows all" to a more humble & relatable master. One who is not without fault, and has the capacity to grown and learn alongside their student.

i like to refer to this movie as the training of Huey Freeman. i love this movie

[@charlesgraham9954]

took my son to see the karate Kid when he was 11. the movie did a good job of being more than just fighting. respect should be our number one priority.

[@jesusrodriguez4.]

What I love about this movie is that its called karate kid but several times during the movie it is said that he is learning kung fu not karate :v

[@SignOfTheTimes008]

Watching Jaden's character have their confidence grow and find a kind of spiritual calm & peace, was nice. That's what I love of martial arts, and what it does. I loved the scene where he helped JC find his again, with the car scene. Well done. I'll always remember that scene, it just stands out well.

Bruh I just realized, Jaden Smith is literally just Riley from the Boodocks the similarity is uncanny haha

When you realize this movie is almost 15 years old. 😐 Things were so different back then. Will still had a big career and Jada had hair.

[@bredockschannel7331]

Fun fact, the lady dominating the cobra was doing a crane style technique... a nod to the original movie where Daniel beats his antagonist of the Cobra Cai dojo with a crane style technique 🤌

[@isaiahbroars835]

This actually put me onto Kung fu and Jackie Chan as a master when I was about 4

[@shibe5198]

6:10 I think Jackie isn’t looking down on the martial art itself, more that having a cocky little kid tell you he could break your arm via a move he saw in passing is clearly bs, and he knows it 😂

[@Gunbudder]

0:25 the training scenes are unironically amazing and still stick with me after a decade. i remember training to be able to lift myself up with just my fists while sitting cross legged, or trying to be able to do a push up with my fists down by my waist or way out over my head. the ultimate is to do the hand stand from rumble in the bronx, but that's another movie. seriously, see how long it takes you just to be able to lift and hold your body up completely with just your fists in really any position you can think of. not a push up where your feet also touch, only your fists are touching the ground and your body is suspended somehow. its intense

[@gromswowguide7927]

I liked the movie but i must say, i have a hard time seperating the character from the actor. I really can’t stand Jaden Smith, he really is the worst case personality outcome of a kid with rich and influential parents. He’s not just “not humble” he is very much delusional in his character and ego.

I'm really sorry to what's happened to that kid. Jada's genetics and upbringing...

[@M-yue882]

[@alexho1668]

yooo 11:06 is chen shifu, I studied under him back in the day! Wudang is like stepping back in time

[@wardeni9603]

Speaking of movies, I feel like Ranton could make some pretty entertaining comedy action movies reminiscent of 80's hong kong flicks. If anyone had the interest to make those movies and have him in them, that is.

[@TheGkUnion]

I can't lie I love these slower paced videos of yours.

[@masternajafi]

I show this movie to my 9yo daughter every month lol to make her understand the value of Kung Fu

[@GerhardGeficky-jg4ok]

Here's my opinion. I've studied Hung gar, Wing Chun, choi lay fut, Chin Na, Muay Thai , and kickboxing. I will tell you that wing Chun is effective but the limitations is the power. That's why you need to supplement it with a Hard Style. The principles of sticking hands and centre line are very good. It's more effective than akido obviously.
