rabidsamfanOn an impulse I went and saw the new Karate Kid movie tonight. I'd seen a couple of trailers, and I liked the original, so why not? Couldn't be too bad.
It was wonderful.
I mean, opening night crowd enthusiasm and all that, but how often have you been in a dark movie theater pounding your hands together mid-movie as if the people on the screen could hear you? And it wasn't just me, it was the whole audience.
Great scenery, good story, Jackie Chan thoroughly enjoying his role, and Jaden Smith showing us that he's going to be a force to be reckoned with for the next several decades! Stick around for the production stills they have during the end credits... This one is going definitely going into my "Buy the DVD" list, because I want to see the extras almost as much as I want to watch the film again!
