2.What is the story about?
· This movie was about a 12-year-old Dre Parker and his mother Sherry move from Detroit to Beijing,China after getting a job transfer. Dre develops a crush on this young and charming violinist, Mei Ying, who attracts Dre and his attention, but Cheng, a rebellious kung fu prodigy whose family is close to Mei Ying's, attempts to keep them apart by beating Dre, and later bullies him at school. During the attack, Mr. Han comes to Dre's aid, revealing himself as a kung fu master.
After Han mends Dre's injuries using fire cupping which we all believed that this is one of the technique used by the ancestors of chinese believeing to treat and recovers serious pain.Dre asks if Mr. Han could teach him kung fu. Han refuses, but meets Cheng's teacher, Master Li, to make peace. Li, who teaches his students to show no mercy to their enemies, challenges Dre to a fight with Cheng. Li tells Han that if Dre does not show up during the tournament he will personally bring pain to Han and ask his students to keep bulliying Dre everywhere around.
Dre is shocked when Han tells him that he will fight in a kung fu tournament. Han promises to teach Dre "real" kung fu. Han begins training Dre from start. Han emphasizes that the movements Dre is learning apply to life in general, and that serenity and power are not punches and power, are the true keys to mastering the martial arts.
One day, Han says that Dre will take a day off from training. Dre goes to Han's place at night and finds a drunk Han, smashing a car he was and always working on. Han tells Dre that he crashed the same car years ago. His wife and ten-year old son was with him and died in the car crash. Han fixes the car every year but smashes it to remind himself of what happened.That night, Dre shows Han the kung fu techniques he learned while his mother arrives and watches him.
As Dre's friendship with Mei Ying continues, Dre persuades Mei Ying to cut off school for a day of fun, but when she is nearly late for her violin audition which was brought forward a day without their knowledge, her parents deem him a bad influence and forbid her from spending more time with him. Han assists Dre in reading a note of apology to Mei Ying's father in Chinese as you know, Mei Ying was a chinese and he accepts and promises that Mei Ying will attend the tournament to support Dre and they wish Dre goodluck for the tournament ahead.
At the tournament, the under-confident and less-experienced Dre is slow to achieve parity with his opponents, but soon begins beating them and advances to the semifinals, as does Cheng, who violently finishes off his opponents. Dre comes up against Liang and he was badly injured.
Despite Han's insistence that he has earned respect for his performance, Dre convinces Han to treat his leg by using fire cupping in order to continue. Dre returns to the arena, facing Cheng. Dre delivers impressive blows, but Cheng counters with a strike to Dre's injured leg. Dre struggles to get up, and attempts the reflection technique to manipulate Cheng into changing his attack stance. Cheng charges Dre, but Dre flips and catches Cheng with a kick to his head, winning the tournament along with the respect of Cheng and his classmates. Cheng instead of the presenter awards Dre the trophy, and the Fighting Dragon students bow to Mr. Han.
3.What group of people would like to watch this fim?
In my opinion,I think that mostly, kids and teenagers would like to watch this sort of movie as this movie is a family movie. This group of people might like this movie because most of the characters were teenagers and not to forget there were many cool stunt moves that is interesting to watch.
AFTER THE MOVIE.
1.Do you like this movie? Why or why not?
· I like this movie because it was very interesting to watch as there were many parts that I would like to watch again and again like the parts when they were fighting with all that cool moves, to me, it was very interesting action moves and not to mention about the sweet love between Dre and Mei Ying as both of them were really cute together although it was a little bit cheesy there.
2.What rating would you give for this movie?
3.What spoilers would ruin this movie if you told your readers about it?
· The spoiler would be if in the early plot, we get the idea that Dre is a fast learner and he can grab all Mr. Han's technique easily for example his cobra skill when he defeat his rival,Cheng at the grand final and win the competition.
4.All movies teach a lesson(theme or moral). What did you learn for this movie?
· ·Never give up. Go for the goal and
always try your best to make it. Do not stop believing ang you can achieve it.
Never give up on everything you really believe in, as the song Never Say Never.
For example Dre Parker. He tries to make friends with the Beijing kids since he
just moved from Detroit, including a cute girl named Meiying but he was bullied
by a gang of jealous kung fu kids.
· Treating others with kindness and
respect. Never be rude and hurt others’ feeling. The power is only good in the
hands of those who is unwilling to use it.
