I just want to start by saying that the best part of the film for my wife and me was the ending - it felt like a satisfying conclusion.
That said, I have mixed feelings overall. While I understand that both Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan are older now, it felt like they didn't bring their full energy to this film. As a long-time Jackie Chan fan, I know his charisma isn't just about physical action - and here, it seemed like he wasn't as engaged as he could have been. Ralph Macchio, too, felt like he put more heart into his work on Cobra Kai than in this movie.
I should say that this isn't really about The Karate Kid: Legends, but just something I often think about when watching movies - especially lower-budget films. When you're lucky enough to be part of a film project, I feel actors should really put their best effort into it because opportunities like that are rare. Sometimes it seems like newer actors don't fully appreciate that, and that can affect the quality of a movie.
I also want to point out that one particular fight scene felt a bit unrealistic. For example, there's a scene where the main character struggles in a one-on-one fight, but later manages to defeat three opponents at once - some armed, which didn't quite make sense.
Despite these critiques, the movie was enjoyable overall, and I do recommend it. Like many have said, it felt a bit rushed, but fans of the franchise will still find things to appreciate, particularly the nostalgic elements and the ending.

As a longtime fan of video games, I was genuinely excited to see A Minecraft Movie come to life on the big screen. Visually and conceptually, the film delivers an entertaining and vibrant adaptation that captures some of the charm of the game. However, one major casting choice didn't quite land for me.
Jason Momoa, a talented actor with undeniable screen presence, takes on the comedic role of Garrett. While I respect his range, the humor here felt forced and out of sync with his usual strengths. His performance came off as mismatched, and it lacked the timing and nuance needed to carry the comedy effectively.
In my opinion, someone like Dwayne Johnson might have brought the right blend of charisma, humor, and energy to elevate the role, especially in a story that leans so heavily into self-aware action and absurdity.
Don't get me wrong - Momoa is a strong actor, and this critique isn't a knock on his abilities. It's more about casting fit: in this case, the character just didn't play to his strengths.

I couldn't watch more than 12 minutes of the movie, there was the longest boring of our life and when finally there was going to be the first killing of the first 12 minutes of the film, they didn't show it, just some screaming and they cut to another scene and my wife said to turn off this garbage and put another movie called Sting, now that was better which by the way I have to give my thoughts. Anyway, We are strong fans of horror movies but we are very picky. So I came here to read the reviews and I was right, there is a lot of tedious walking throughout the film so thank you for saving us from wasting our time in this movie. Sometimes reading reviews pays off.
