This is the remake of the 1984 film by the same name.
Jaden Smith (son of Will Smith)plays the main character Drek Parker and Jackie Chan plays Mr. Han his mentor.
The story tells of Drek Parker who has just moved to a new place and gets bullied by other kids his age. Considered to be a intense film at times it certainly shares the message that respect and having mastery of one's body is important.
Interesting facts....This film takes place in China unlike the original and kung fu is what is practiced in the film not Karate.
