12-year-old Dre Parker could've been the most popular kid in Detroit, but his mother's latest career move has landed him in China. Dre immediately falls for his classmate Mei Ying but the cultural differences make such a friendship impossible. Even worse, Dre's feelings make him an enemy of the class bully, Cheng. With no friends in a strange land, Dre has nowhere to turn but maintenance man Mr. Han, who is a kung fu master.

fresh:
It's as sweet-natured a movie as you could expect about a 12-year-old learning to beat the crap out of his schoolmates.

The latest "The Karate Kid" will probably work best for young audiences unaware of its predecessor - or of much of anything else for that matter.

It's not as good as the 1984 version. I say that not just out of nostalgia, but because I think that that was a more satisfying drama.

If the movie's overlong (and it is, by about 20 minutes), it's long for a reason: It gives Dre time to grow.

The script follows the predictable path from humiliation to humility to a climactic showdown, complete with a deciding slow-motion kick.
