Flasting myths create a strange problem

This post contains Spoilers For “Karate Kid: Legends.”

“Cobra Kai” was not a lack of respect for Dogo, but you liked it or not, as he settled in a “very good” camp and stayed there for six full seasons. Even with the message aimed at transferring the weak story around Johnny Lawrence (William Zaba), the show was still about high school children who took the karate road seriously, and perhaps more than Daniel La Roso (Ralph McCio) per day. It is also what made some scenes of the show’s fighting very acceptable. Certainly, they were well designed, but along with programs such as “Warrior” or “Gangs of London”, “Cobra Kai”. It is this setback that becomes more clear when one of the most respectable teachers tries to transfer wisdom to a new student in “Karate Kid: Legends” (Read our review of the movie here).

It is clear during the first few moments of seeing Li Wang (Ben Wong) at work that the child can deal with himself and will not be a difficult competitor to our favorite competitor in the valley, but erasing the land with them, regardless of the extent to which his “skills” are not consistent throughout the movie. For this reason, when it comes to the original Karate child who teaches the new student, it does not seem to be much that he needs to take. This should not be a shock given that the original Li -Wang teacher is Mr. Han, who is played by legendary Jackie Chan – the greatest origin of the movie that highlights one of the largest weaknesses.

Even at the age of 71, Jackie Chan still allows his fibers to fly with amazing accuracy, to remind us of why it is a name that is forever. Unfortunately, when Chan paired with Daniel La Roso of Ralph McCtio, “Karate Kid: Legends” emphasizes how bad the prevailing in some training sequence and the shortcomings of his co -star. The film resorted to carefully placed camera shots for teachers who wander from the waist down or during a random fight, as both defend the mid -road through the inevitable championship, with the superiority of Macchio by the Chan’s Flourish and Flair.

This dynamic makes La Roso’s advice to feel that she is forced, and his existence is almost frequent, given the clear difference in the experience between Han and Larusso. One of the scene, in particular, explains this error when it deviates from the teachers, and the Han pace is only matching to drop some gears significantly while he was making the same thing with Daniel. All this is a clear effort to apply the fans’ service that you design, not only for original films but also on the most modern Netflix series, which is only looks at it instead of its entire adoption. Ultimately, the largest ready -made meals from “Karate Kid: Legends” is that you should be ready to repeat the same mistakes that preceded it, as it could have appeared as a much better film.

In 2010, the masses were shown by “The Karate Kid”, which was associated with distinction only by name. The issues, of course, continued, with the education of Han Parker Kung-Fu from Jaden Smith instead of karate, and from the audience’s point of view at that time, it was a new version of the original movie instead of extension The scientist “Cobra Kai” will reconsider the end. Frankly, this was the path that “myths” should take, because it is not only the fake honor and sometimes the privilege of others is not similar to what happened before, but it also impedes a convincing story that can stand on its own.

Regardless of the weak review menu, “Karate Kid: Legends” dares to do something different, which makes the student become a teacher and trains the former Li Boxer Joshua Jackson and the owner of the adult pizza, Victor. This story feels refreshing and you can transfer the entire film, allowing Chan to be softened, although it is a little less than that, and Macchio was not at all (although its removal hinders the movie The box office hopes to call “Cobra Kai”). Chan is very skilled so that you don’t fight alongside Ralph McCio, and ends up creating a problem for the film.
