Since it is the sixth batch of a 40 -year -old concession, it may assume that “Karate Kid: Legends” will modify the formula, and liquidate it through a kind of exaggeration in technological empowerment that determines most of the last day’s sequences. There is one explicit way the movie is updated by the series. The hero, Lee Fung (Ben Wang), is a teenager who trains in Beijing Dogo from Shevo Han (Jackie Chan), where he mastered a step from Congo Fu called the dragon kick, and the Balikort state that abandons the peak, through screaming, through hardness. It is the concession of one movie for the four decades of the Asian Movement Cinema that has occurred since the original “Karate Kid”, and it is designed to give you that “this is not the story of your father Ralph Macchio Fairy Tale!” sense.
With the end of the end, it has learned to fight in a style that merges Kung Fu and Karate – and all this is due to the fact that Mr. Miagi was from Japan, and that after Norioki died “Bat” Maurita, in 2005, the producers were replaced by Jackie Chan, who was from the Hong Kong School. Dragging movies now different combat traditions together in “two branches, one tree” legends.
But enough of the “Karate Kid” home management! The main thing to know about “Karate Kid: Legends” is that from the moment when he arrives in New York City, where his mother (Ming-Na Wen) chose to move them after the tragic death of the Li Kung-Fu-Campion brother, the film penetrates us that there is 80 years old. This is actually the best thing in “Karate Kid: Legends”. It is an unusual, healthy, and in 94 minutes, it has been stripped fresh. In its formal method, it works as a fragmentation for fragmentation and chaos from the dust of the Mediterranean Kiddie.
How old is it? At his new home in the center of Manhattan, he is a link with Mia, a high school colleague who works with her father in the local pizza store. Sadi Stanley, who plays her role, behaves with a passionate person who is eagerly feels that she is the media before society, to the point that she raises the “Wargames” ally. (Yes, this is a high courtesy. Stay tuned for Sadly Stanley.) The former friend of Mia, Connor (Aramis Knight), with his young hair Stephen Seagal, filled with stagnation, resembles the fatwa in John Hughes. He will end up to the Li’s Martial-Arts, and by the time when the film reaches there, our collective desire to see the donkey’s kick in the dragon kick is clear. But in order for me to succeed, he must win over a dilemma in the twentieth century: that he “frozen” at the present time should have saved his brother.
It took four decades until Hollywood focused “Karate Kid” about an Asian hero, but Ben Wang does not wear this distinction like a heavy scarf. In “Karate Kid: Legends”, it is Lithe and captivating. Wang, 25 years old but looks younger, gives Bruce’s adolescence vitality, although I do not mean to suggest that he evokes a genius for me in fighting. I mean that he evokes his appetite – the lightness that was the other side of the brutality of me, because it allowed him to be so fast that he was like a human shave through his enemies.
The original movie “Karate Kid” is still the best, because the modernity of Macchio Daniel Laroso to “wax, wax off” Buddhist Training by Mr. Miagi has never been repeated. But “Karate Kid: Legends” is the first entrance to the privilege that is made under “Cobra Kai”, and the Netflix series that takes six seasons that have paired Daniel adults and his treatment that turned into a transformer, Johnny Lawrence (William Zaba), and the film disappears from the amazing spirit.
For a while, he becomes a coach, where Mia’s father, Victor, Victor (Joshua Jackson, who resembles George Clooney with the most softened edges), raised how to return to the boxing ring. (Training works … so that he does not do it.) But who will train me? He is due to the only two that he could: Han, who was flying from Beijing and Daniel, who Macchio plays with an experienced magic. It was found that the signs team of fighting teachers is the ACE comedy team. The unmistakable gravity Jackie Chan is that in the shadow of that polite smile, it is not impossible strictly – he will not give one inch – and McCio, in a group that looks like it came through a time machine, his experience in Karatai is of confidence that earns its authority.
The film collection feels somewhat separate from the Climate Martial Arts Championship: a brave event in New York called “5 Boro”, where fighters from all over the city compete with each other in the streets. The director, Jonathan Instalt, does not carry it. The film wanders in the early rounds and reaches the end, and it was filmed on the surface of Manhattan in the magic hour, where it goes to me and Kunor to each other and carry the secret weapon that he trained by learning how to duck under the subway roundabout. “Karate Kid: Legends” is loved by reactionary atom, but by the end you may only think: this is not a head kick.
