Lol is it because he's absolutely nothing like Daniel? Or because the only other movie he's been in worth mentioning had him crying over losing a captain america doll?

Like I figured, I could not stand Will's son Dre. Trys to be like his father and doesnt STFU with his mouth. Will and his fam should not be part around this movie. Chan is good though and Rongguang Yu is good as the villian.
The movie is ok, A-team is better choice of the two.

My problem with it, why didn't they just have the family move to JAPAN and learn Karate from jackie chan as a japanese man (i would of been ok with that) instead of moving to CHINA and learning kung fu when the movie is called the karate kid!!!!
Go on youtube and check this out www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdrFwikfJNk
The mother thinks that Kung Fu and Karate are the same shit.
Even though almost every studio was rebooting long-dormant franchises with mixed results — " Superman Returns," "AVP: Alien vs. Predator," "Star Trek," among the disinterred titles — Sony didn't want to make another "Karate Kid" movie just because the title was lying fallow. "This is a valuable property," says Doug Belgrad, president of Sony's Columbia Pictures, recalling his thinking at the time. "We better have the right idea, or it's not worth doing."
Determined to fight back, Dre enlists Mr. Han (Chan), a mysterious maintenance man who teaches Dre the Chinese martial art of kung fu. (There's really no karate in the film, and Sony wrestled with changing the title to "Kung Fu Kid," but the original film's producer, Jerry Weintraub, nixed the idea.) In following the trajectory of the first film, Dre in the new "Karate Kid" spends more and more time with Mr. Han, who ultimately becomes the boy's surrogate father. Jaden Smith trained for four months before production commenced to perfect his fighting, studying under Wu Gang, Chan's stunt coordinator.
Jackie Chan is not Japanese, and he doesn't look Japanese.
That's why.

Well no Sh1t sherlock!! tell me something i don't know.
My point was, it would of been better if they had done that way.
And FYI many actors and actresses take roles to be chinese and they are japanese or visa versa
example
Charlotte Lewis (golden child) she is Irish and Iraqi-Chilean, she sure isn't Tibetan or chinese
Ziyi Zhang and Michelle Yeoh (memoirs of a geisha) they are both chinese playing japanese
Sung Kang (tokyo drift) he's korean playing a chinese or japanese
Kelly Hu (NCIS) shes Chinese-Filipino-Hawaiian and English and she was playing a north korean.

big friggin' lulz! Seriously, that shit was hilarious... thanks for the link. But to the point, the movie is actually pretty good, despite the kung-fu part.
the last 2 anacondas movies were horrible. # 1 and 2 were good. the anacondas in the 3rd movie looked like zombies they went overboard trying to make them look scarry. the 4th one was a failure as well.
