The Karate Kid (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo + Digital Copy)

BUY NOW BY AMAZON!
 I'm one that chooses not to go to cinemas. I wait until movies come out on dvd. I do my research of a movie by coming to Amazon and other sites that allow viewers to share their opinions of movies. I look for very honest feedback from viewers. I knew instantly that I wanted to see this movie by the trailer, but I had to make sure that it was worth my hard earned dollars. This is why I read through each and every review on this movie, and I weeded out the trash reviews. Reviews that really caught my attention were the ones by viewers that honestly stated that they had their prejudices, based upon seeing Jaden in an interview. These individuals shared how they found this young man, Jaden Smith, to be arrogant, based upon how he carried himself; these viewers then shared that after taking a chance on seeing this movie, their views of Jaden had drastically changed. I feel honored to have read these types of review, because they are the ones that truly sealed the deal for me. I've purchased this DVD today, and I'm very pleased with it.

There were other review that I totally discarded and ignored, which were individuals that clearly demonstrated to the world that their reviews were not based upon anything other than a preference for an actor of their own race. I encourage the viewers to read through each review carefully, before allowing yourselves to be persuaded by ignorance and bigotry. It is ok to have preference for actors/actresses of one's own race, but don't use that as an excuse to stop others from enjoying a movie that can become a great collection piece for others, along with serving to inspire us when times get rough. Jaden is an amazing actor in this movie. Each moment that I watched Jaden in this movie, I knew that he was the son of Hollywood parents, but I also believed in his character, based upon very convincing facial expression of pain, lonliness and fear; that alone shows how great of an actor this kid is. Will Smith, watch out! Your son will be taking many acting roles from you in a few more years. Let's not forget that the character "Mr Han" was also a great actor in this movie. I felt the chemistry between Mr. Han and Dre's characters. Even the bully was played by a great young actor; I found myself hating him throughout the movie, and at the end, respecting him as much as Dre's character.

On a personal note, I love dreads and braid, because they show the natural beauty that exist within my ethnic group. Although some in this world, as demonstrated by some of the reviews on this movie, has sometimes attempted to make me and other African Americans ashamed of our features, I'm so glad that this movie chose to allow its lead character to sport his natural hair in all its glory.

In closing, I encourage everyone to ultimately choose for themselves, if they will be purchasing or renting this movie. Do not allow me nor anyone else to decide that for you.
