Sweet, cute, emotional, catchy

Thanks to Justin Bieber's never say never i have watched this movie.

Dre parker moves to China with his mother where he meets mei ling and a lot of trouble. To help him overcome these troubles stepped in Mr Han who himself is dealing with a past trauma.

Thr presentation was simple. The story is not extraordinary in any manner. It is simple but still the direction style itself was very nice. some parts are emotional too. especially the scene in the car where Mr Han finally confesses about his past to Dre and the scnen where Dre confronts his mom about their stay in china.

Jaden Smith was fantastic. He has proved that he is the next upcoming superstar. His smile is so sweet that it reminds me of sugar. His kung fu moves are soo smooth and realistic and therefore an exceptional performance from a 12 year old. He looked totally different. Especially from his chubby, bubbly look in pursuit of happiness and the day the earth stood still. The way he presented the character may it be seriously or through comedy or through action.

Jackie Chan was great as Mr Han. He is definitely the most versatile among the kung fu action heroes. He lives throughout the film just with his expressions.

Taraji P Henson's character fascinated me as it reminded me a lot of my mom. The way she talks and behaves. "Dre..... PICK up your jacket"

All others were nice in their own roles.

James Horner's score is very haunting as always. This is one movie I will always want to watch over and over again.

The scenery alone can attract a person.
