The Karate Kid -2010 File

The 2010 reimagining of The Karate Kid stands as a rare example of a remake that honors its predecessor while successfully carving out its own cultural identity. Directed by Harald Zwart and produced by Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, the film shifted the action from the valley of Los Angeles to the vibrant streets of Beijing, replacing karate with kung fu but keeping the "spirit of the martial arts" at its core.

: "Kung Fu lives in everything we do. It lives in how we put on a jacket, how we take off a jacket. It lives in how we treat people. Everything is Kung Fu." On Focus : "Your focus needs more focus." the karate kid -2010
