Legends introduces an all-new cast of original characters, with many of them filling the narrative roles of characters from the original.

The kid teaching the adult was a charming and genius twist. Although Li’s fighting performance was a bit choppy at first—he somehow bumbles a fight with his rival for Mia’s affection Conor (Aramis Knight), and then kicks a$$ against multiple ADULT fighters in an alley—he evens out and is impressive as the young prodigy.

“Karate Kid: Legends” received mixed reviews from critics, resulting in the film getting a score of 55% on Rotten Tomatoes and 51/100 on Metacritic.
