This movie was awesome!!!! Jaden Smith (Will and Jayda Smith's son) was excellent in this film! Jackie Chan played a great role. If anyone hasn't seen this yet, they should definitely see it when they get a chance!!! Two thumbs up!!!

Gotta love equal opportunity in the movie industry, and no, I am not talking about race.

Loved that movie! I think I even saw a little bit of gymnastics in it

That is great to know!
Funny that I heard that the only thing it doesn't have in the movie was karate.

I hear ya!! It had more kung-fu in it than anything else. They actually call this movie "Kung-Fu Kid" in other countries, but they wanted to keep the name the same here in the States because of all the marketing for the original Karate Kid movie.

I really enjoyed the movie a lot, so much I am trying to retrain my ability to hold myself on my fingers. I'm shooting for a two finger L-sit, doing a HS on my fingertips and doing pushups alternating one thumb at a time. I can still do pushups on my thumb or thumb/finger though I haven't tried index/middle/ring yet.

Besides, I love Kung Fu and Jackie Chan. Nothing like WuDang Mtn. Maybe one day. I wonder about going to China but there are things like that-that would be some awesome to see!


*Spoiler alert*





















Actually in the very beginning of the movie when the hero meets his mentor he is trying to do Karate by watching it on the television.
