A 12 year old boy, Dre, moves from Detroit to Beijing with his mother. He gets beaten up by a gang of Chinese bullies who’re also students of an agressive form of Kung-Fu. Mr.Han (Jackie Chan) teaches the boy his style of Kung-Fu to ward off the bad guys at a major tournament. The underdog wins as expected.I liked every bit of it, except the name.

Why is a movie about a kid who learnt Kung-Fu called Karate Kid?
