Do you find this movie to be underrated?!

[@codlover93love24]

Yes

[@stepbro69038]

Yes

[@jaimeantoniomangune5793]

yep

[@rhiannonliddell]

Yeahhh for real I really loved it when it came out ❤ and I remember everyone kinda not talking about it as much 😢 or it just maybe went under the radar idk 🤷‍♀️

[@meenaragyor]

Yeah for sure!

[@skyereacts125]

i loved this movie so much as a kid, i had on dvd and everything i think this version deserves more love

[@smfgaming5036]

There's a deleted scene available on youtube. A Fight between Jackie Chan vs The Devil Teacher.

[@liambriggs2383]

The fact that people are saying this is their "childhood movie" makes me feel old as shit 🤣

[@joellenglass2344]

Jaden is in The Pursuit of Happyness with his father, based on the true story of millionaire Anthony Garner, which I met in real life and is a great guy! I read the book after seeing the movie.

[@batbrick3949]

My kids (who had to move all over the world while I was in the Army) loved this movie. It really nails how culture shock and leaving home can hit kids hard. Good performances by everyone.

[@nateb188]

A lot of people HATE this movie. I personally always loved it and only found it later that it’s hated by a fair amount of people. I think the story was similar yet different enough to be interesting, the characters stayed true to themselves and showed a deeper side, and the action I think is just way way WAY better in the 2010 version. The original karate kids are goated, but this movie I think is an amazing remake

[@MrVisualHigh]

I think it's because the original was so important to people it was always going to have a hard time winning people over. On top of that, since this movies release Jayden has gotten a bad rap for being a cringey teenager in the public eye (as apposed to the rest of us who got to be cringey teenagers in private XD), this has probably prevented this movie from becoming a "classic in hindsight" as many movies do.

[@shawnjohnson2837]

Cause Jaden sucks as an actor

[@nateb188]

@ and you think the acting from the 80s and 90s isn’t corny and cringe? 😂😂 cmon stop, Jayden did good in this and when he was younger he did GREAT in pursuit of happyness

[@reddog2949]

"The pursuit of happyness" is not only my favorite Will and Jayden movie but top 3 Will Smith movie of all time

[@craigchalloner153]

People went into this cynically because of the widespread love of the original movies. Unfairly in my opinion. I love this remale.

[@OBootneyLee]

PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS GUYS! HE WAS IN PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS! NOW WATCH IT!

[@superdre4892]

Please watch it 🙏

[@alexp601]

But they don't have to watch After Earth 😅

[@mackenzieking-hamilton4019]

“Your cornrows intrigue me” LMFAOOOO Aaron 😭😭😭😭

My childhood movie right here

“How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real” -Jaden Smith Master philosopher

[@milkiassamuel780]

To me growing up this was MY Karate Kid (although technically it should probably be called Kung Fu Kid). When I was young my family would love watching this movie together and before I ever learned about the original Karate Kid movies or Cobra Kai, this movie to me was first exposure to the franchise and honestly it doesn't get enough love as I think its pretty underrated. Interested to see what the new upcoming Karate Kid is going to look like?

[@KamoMustafaWWE]

This is MY Karate Kid movie. I loved it growing up. I haven't seen the older ones.

[@stamina4days]

Shame

[@seoulku]

@@stamina4days not really, this karate kid is loads better

[@Burger-g4v]

@@seoulkuI’d say it’s better than 2 and 3, but the first karate kid is better than this one

[@JacobCullen-l7k]

@@Burger-g4v i think the og is better because it is the og and created the story for this one but i think the fights are way more entertaining which definitely has to do with the time

[@Burger-g4v]

@@JacobCullen-l7k yeah, I’d say you explained it perfectly

[@dheyyb]

my karate kid and never say never for sure raise me, just an amazing movie all around

[@Mr808pocho]

So much heart in this one! The people that hate on it are lacking that.

[@christiancardenas1603]

1:04:20 There’s actually a deleted scene of Mr Han and the other guy fighting after the tournament on KZbin. It’s pretty cool to check out

[@rainbowxstorm1105]

When I watched this film and I didn’t realize Jaden Smith is actually Will Smith’s son but I checked that Will Smith and his son were in a movie together twice the pursuit of happiness from 2006 and after earth from 2013

[@richardthemagician8991]

I think it's when Jackie Chan's better performances.

[@red16wolf]

Hell here in America i still get people asking to touch my hair.

[@infamous499]

Underrated addition to the series

[@davekisman2763]

After this movie, Zhenwei Wang became a master at kung fu.

[@sajithshiraj5777]

Hot take : i like this more than the original

[@xSagash]

Me too.

[@alexp601]

You guys must be under 30 years old 😅 Anyone older will definitely not have this opinion

[@xSagash]

@@alexp601 I'm 39, and that doesn't mean I dislike the old Karate Kid. I prefer the fights of the younger one, I like Jackie Chan and also the more current script. The interesting thing is that I see more people who prefer the first Karate Kid being haters of those who like the 2010 one, than the other way around. This is immaturity, each person likes what they want, each film represents something different for each person. It's just different opinions, and that's okay.

[@sajithshiraj5777]

@@alexp601 yeah 25, i've watched movies from 1960s. what does my age have to do with anything? It's my preference

[@alexp601]

@@sajithshiraj5777 yeah there’s nothing wrong with having a genuine preference. I was just saying that those who grew up with this one are most likely to prefer it over the old ones. Just like those who grew up with the old ones would prefer those.

[@IsmaelG84]

When he said "this the one Bruce Lee had", that had to of hit Jackie Chan in the feels, since he knew Bruce irl.

[@Zeithri]

51:20 - I love the line " _I hope it was something important_ " because that speaks volumes more to me as someone who rarely holds a grudge, because this really is that important to remember: Is the argument worth dying over? PS to me, this isn't a remake, it's just another story in the same universe. This movie is great, as a fan of the old Karate Kid movies, I really enjoyed this movie and I really buy what Jackie Chan says about Kung Fu - Don't get me wrong, I bought it about Karate too with Wax on Wax off, something I still quote to my sister when we need to do something " _Ah, but first we must sand da floor, and wax on_ ".

[@thesilverbaby4880]

I WANNA GO HOME!!😩

[@thetruej7872]

I HATE IT HERE!

[@rhiannonliddell]

YAY love me some Jackie chan , I kinda love this “reboot” or whatever it’s classed as although the original mr miagi is simply perfect (rip x❤)

[@Spider-Man4266]

3:21 Also the Pursuit of Happiness alongside his dad Will Smith.

[@joellenglass2344]

All I could think of during the scene where Dre was getting beat up was “Where the hell these little douche bags’ parents at?!”

[@imthewolf1]

My theory why this movie is so underrated because, it is a remake. For some reason, it seems like people that they can only like the original or the remake but never both. I loved both of them.

[@ImpeccableZentertainment]

My biggest problem with this movie as a martial artist is that its called Karate Kid when he's being taught Kung Fu

[@estigiapro1110]

Yeah 🙃

[@ImpeccableZentertainment]

Like everytime i see it it just reminds me of how my mom has called my Tae Kwon Do by Karate for 24 years

[@richardthemagician8991]

Yeah, the average person doesn't know the difference.

[@rexgar0092]

That was a marketing choice. It is called "Kung Fu Kid" in some counties.

[@kingjaylen9712]

The movie addresses that when Jaden Smith's character says, "It's not Karate, mom, it's Kung Fu". They kept the name cause it's a remake

[@MyUnsecretIdentity]

3:21 but also a really amazing movie before that called Pursuit Of Happyness also with his dad. You should definetely see that one its a must-watch

[@theylied1776]

You might want to look up the term (Tofu Dreg). The Chinese construction industry has a massive corruption problem. So several buildings decay or fall apart.

[@Tuck600]

Let’s goooo I wasn’t expecting this one

[@Blevins15]

I'd like to see Aaron & Tara watch some more Kung-Fu movies. The first 'Iron Monkey' movie in particular. It stars the actor who plays this movie's Kreese(the bad teacher) who is a doctor/vigilante in China. Donnie Yen is in it too. They're both awesome in it🔥📽

[@parthachem83]

If u wanna see the best movie with Jaden and Will together, watch The Pursuit of Happiness. It will break ur heart to million pieces and heal it too. A masterpiece

[@jairusjackson7799]

This was my Karate Kid growing up! Love this movie!

[@RaymondXperia]

24:48 - The irony that Jaden Smith sang "I'm Ready" for the Playstation game SPIDER-MAN: MILES MORALES.

[@iamdeathiamentropyiamdarks3517]

The superior karate kid movie

[@angelaott295]

I *think* the girl plays Chopin - Nocturne in C Sharp Minor (No. 20) for violin....Chopin is so haunting. If you've seen The Pianist, this song features in several scenes.

[@andrewclay-sz6hy]

we love Jacie Chan

[@silenceamplified]

I used to watch this every time it was on tv don’t know why people underestimate it. Love this Karate kid duo 🫶🏻

[@A_Angel94]

Loved watching this as a child. I feel like it really showed Jackie’s incredible chops as an actor. He isn’t just funny and a stunt man/martial artist, etc… that whole scene where he shows all of that emotion was so well done. Still makes me cry ❤

[@geraldjackson3921]

He was also in the pursuit of happiness with his father

[@diegopansini3152]

This is my favorite Karate Kid, man. The action alone is way better, and Jack Chan’s character is absolutely great. So much heart

[@Gothboy95]

I used to use this scene from the movie when I transferred schools against my will “I HATE IT HERE, I WANNA GO HOME” lmfao 😂 ahh the 2010’s 😢

[@ambrosialyra1365]

Such an underrated remake. I love this movie. Aaron and Tara's reactions are so much fun.😁

[@kyo2975]

Also the electricity card, yes we absolutely do have these here in America, especially in Arizona with SRP. I used one here when I first moved here 16 years ago

[@paneledmeteor33]

Jaden was in my favorite Keanu Reeves movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still And this movie’s score was composed by James Horner RIP

[@drewrayg]

I love you two together. And I appreciate you guys appreciating the movie. I remember liking the film but not loving it. But with renewed eyes it is very enjoyable.

[@MrGoodnight945]

I think this movie as a stand alone is really great but the ties to the karate kid franchise is where people have there problems I love this film though!

[@TheRealZOLO1]

Watching this in theatres as a kid was so awesome 😭 I think everything out of this movie is so fun and all the characters are interesting. Never forget the Justin Bieber song to end the movie off

[@stevecalderon1985]

This movie shouldn't been called The Kung Fu Kid because of the martial arts change. If they're going to make a Karate Kid movie, should've gone shot the movie in Japan and cast Ken Watanabe as the mentor. Around that time, Ken was the more well known Japanese actor to American audiences because of Last Samurai, Batman Begins and Letters from Iwo Jima.

[@camryn7023]

i have a distinct memory of this movie while watching it with my mom and brother, while the credits were rolling my mom told my brother to pick up his laundry then she did the jackie chan thing lmao i loved this movie when i was a kid

[@atomic_hok]

i actually love this version of the movie, Jackie Chan and Jaiden Smith actually did really well with their respective roles, people hate on this movie because everyone compares it to the original when it was always meant to be its own thing

[@Alphasnowbordergirl]

I remember a lot of people complaining because it was Kung Fu not Karate. I think people weren't ready for a remake as it is a classic for a lot of people.

[@abelielle9438]

I really don’t understand the hate for this movie, it has so many good, emotionnal scenes, I love it so much ❤

[@itsryanramirez]

im so glad you guys watched this! I saw this movie when Netflix was still sending DVD’s to people’s houses 😂 I was maybe 10-11 at the time and it still is one of my favorite movie from the 2010’s following Real Steel which was an absolute powerhouse

[@msbaby20]

You just got kicked in yo chest. lol I don't know why but that is killing me 🤣😂

[@Shrimppimp123]

jayden smith was also in the pursuit of happiness. probably his best movie

[@Reelfilms1998]

This is my favorite Karate Kid film tbh

[@1a141036]

12:39 1000% within the first hour of being there lmao

[@user-bu3gm7gp4p]

Loved this movie as a kid at 10 years old and still do to this day!

[@Jessicaluv7242]

Jaden and the other young boys went to China to train professionally for this role also took months. The fighting is perfect 👍

[@_Tennille]

Now you guys gotta watch The Pursuit of Happyness with Jaden and Will. Such a good movie ♥️

[@reubenlee6438]

I dont think ive seen Aaron have so many stank faces in one movie. I always loved this movie and glad to see you guys enjoy.

[@brittonisluck]

shockingly people didnt like this movie when it came out, i personally loved it and thought the same thing back then. Love the reaction

[@therealOGGRIM]

I'm so early!! Guys this video was as good as I thought

[@danielnicola8343]

The movie is f*ing outstandig, absolute masterpiece, no doubt whats´o´ever! The low rating shows that we are living in a kinda emotionally unavailable sociatty, i guess thats how u can explain all the s*t is going on....But im not political, just an observation. However, u guys, definetly belong to the good side of humanity, cause u obviosly are emotional reasonable! Kepp it up!

[@Hebrew_Israelite_Young_jedi]

This was a great reaction 🙏🏽💯 I’m very similar to karate kid I’ve always wanted to go to China and learn from martial art monks

[@Snoop03257]

Love seeing this movie get some love so underrated

[@chrisj2546]

3:20 pursuit of happiness

[@davewxtdabag]

13:53 Yeaaaa Ooooo😂😂😂

[@marcella_stefano]

my favourite childhood movie

[@joellenglass2344]

There were times in the film where Jada made sure that Jaden got some rest because of his training.

[@musiclovechaos13124]

Idk this movie went double platinum in my African American home! My mom was also a hardcore og karate kid fan, so maybe that had something to do with it

[@cobrakai1415]

You guys should check out the alternate ending /deleted scene you get to see some action between Jackie Chan and the other teacher it’s a pretty cool scene

[@juliancerda9436]

The pursuit of happiness!!!!! Jayden was in that one with his dad a great and sad movie plz watch!!!

[@sokhon6590]

You should watch The Myth 2005 movie. Jackie Chan and the Karate teacher are in it together too and it was like one of very rare movie which Jackie Chan 'serious'.

[@alexp601]

It's still pretty insane to me how they made a film called The Karate Kid, set in China, with Kung Fu and no Karate in sight.

[@EdwardSanchezProductions]

The best way to celebrate part two of cobra Kai season 6

[@RS-bn1ty]

I was looking at the cast cause I haven’t seen this movie since 2010 and Zhangwei Wang is like super jacked now 😅

[@Mrmapleleaffan13]

Remember Jaden Smith was in the Pursuit of Happiness with his father when he was 8 years old in 2006

[@rainbowxstorm1105]

After the end of the film they played Justin Bieber’s never say never album and at a later point in 2011 they would release a documentary about the singer

[@dianedavid3052]

The bully is terrifying! Reminds me of every character ever played by Bolo Yeung! If there was a Karate Kid multiverse this might be his villain origin story 😂

[@richardthemagician8991]

There's a fun alternate ending. I think the way movie ended is just fine. But they all to the end they has Jackie Chan fighting at the other teacher. And it's pretty good.

[@elijahrace955]

28:49 YES I LOVE IT. All defense

[@SithEnthusiast12]

Movie calls itself Karate kid: Yet Jackie Teaches Jayden kunfu in China🤦🏻‍♂️

[@brevonmckinney2537]

My Karate Kid movie, right here

[@webster2086]

Ive always thought this was way better than the original.

[@Benjamin-yb9zp]

The kid can act no doubt about it

[@imdiyu]

last I heard this movie is getting a sequel. Jackie Chan will be in it, Jaden Smith probably not. I remember watching this film in the cinemas. I had such a great time.

[@mzhappyfree7688]

My kids and I love this movie 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@thisgirl-d3g]

Ahh!! I love this movie growing up.

[@Alphasnowbordergirl]

Don't forget that Dragonball Z is based on Chinese lore and a lot of the culture in it has Chinese influence in the manga.

[@lontollison6771]

All I wanna know is when is Tara's first album coming out

[@fweaboygaming]

lmao.. and the shadows on the wall are like remind us the theater they went to and.......... ya rlly rlly good call ya the sillouhetes are great they in sync now they are in sync they dont even need words this is how they heal
