Karate Kid: Legends

CriticsCritics: 54
AudienceAudience: 6.5

After a family tragedy, a kung fu prodigy moves from Beijing to New York with his mother and struggles to adjust. When a new friend needs help, he enters a karate competition and trains with two mentors, learning to combine different fighting styles for a major showdown.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want upbeat martial arts, familiar underdog themes, and franchise nostalgia; Not for you if you prefer deeper character work or less formulaic stories like Creed III.
