- CuriosidadesProducer Will Smith said Jackie Chan was held in such high regard in China that he was able to use his status to help with many aspects of the production, such as getting permission to shoot in certain locations for filming.
- PifiasThough the plot of the movie revolves around kung fu rather than karate, the title "The Karate Kid" is a direct reference to the bullies calling him the "Karate Kid" when he takes up a stance at the beginning of the fight.
- Créditos adicionalesThe opening and closing credits for the movie are shown in both English and Chinese.
- Versiones alternativasChinese version was re-edited to make Dre seem like the bad guy, and makes it seem like he started all the fights.

Reseña destacada
The Karate Kid is a Sino-American Rocky starring the Will Smith family scion, Jaden. He goes to China with his mom, gets beaten up by bad Chinese kids, prepares to revenge in a tournament, and falls in love.
Meanwhile, the underused Jacky Chan plays a maintenance man teaching Jaden to fight. Jaden shows no exceptional talent, and there's little of the philosophy that makes a sentimental piece like this bearable.
Karate Kid is family entertainment trying to show the importance of charity, goals, open-mindedness, and resilience. Unfortunately a slow exposition keeps the film from a fast summer pace.
Those who compare this version to the original may be disappointed, and those who are interested in Chinese American relations may find it problematic.
