Absolutely fantastic!!
By EmmaHaskell (6 reviews) from Gosport, UK , 20 Jun 2010[Highly rated reviewer]
I saw this film at the cinema this morning and all I can say is WOW!! The story is essentially the same as the original version although it has been updated. It was a tough act to follow the original but they definitely pulled it off. Jaden Smith really can act very well and Jackie Chan was fantastic. The imagery and setting of the movie was also stunning. It's been a long time since I've seen such a wonderful film. I couldn't recommend it highly enough!!- Was this review helpful to you?

Pleasant surprise
By Shandwick (6 reviews) , 16 Jan 2013Despite the classic status of the original, this revamp come off pretty well, thanks mainly to the likeability of the two leads, Jackie even does some proper acting!- Was this review helpful to you?

How remakes should be made
By Priyanka (4 reviews) , 11 Jan 2013Outstanding remake. It is rare to see a good remake. The script was perfect,well-directed, great fight scenes(kung fu instead of karate). Chan and Smith brilliant, great chemistry. I want to see it again. My recommendation watch this movie now.- Was this review helpful to you?
