new things and Mr. Hans being feels
obligated to teach Dre new things.
Here is where his life changing event
also took place and now his life would
never be the same. There will be
different events waiting to happen
and to be discovered by little Dre.
Rising Action
The ally being Mr. Han had to help Dre
throughout the whole way. Enabling
circumstances in the movie that the hero
had to move to china and has to fight
Cheng in a tournament. A life changing
event for the hero was that he had to
move to china and not be used to the
type of living there was there. Now he

have new experiences. He will learn
how to lose his flaws.
Climax
The opponent in the movie was
Cheng. Cheng and Dre are fighting
over a girl that Dre really likes but
Cheng doesn’t want her with him.
They are now against each other and
will have to compete in the
tournament. Fighting over a girl may
seem like a childish thing but then
they change perspective of how it
should really be. They are so positive
about wanting to fight against each
other.
Falling Action
After the tournament is over with and
there is no more problems going on
Cheng and Dre have no hard feelings
towards each other. Dre learns to live in
china and has learned how to do stuff
properly thanks to Mr. Han. The
opponent Being Cheng has disappeared
because the tournament is over with and
no more worries going on. They learn to
get along without having to do it
because they are told to. Cheng gives
Dre the trophy without any mean looks
or bad actions.

They all are equal knowing that each

soul. The hero has grown a lot since

character flaws that led him into
learning what is called kung fu.
Learning new things and many ways
of doing them lets you know the
basics of what is being done and you
reach the top of the goal you are
trying to reach. Everything happens
for a reason and that is why Dre’s
destiny changed.
Summary
When you meet people from other parts
of the world they either have something
against you or not. Many people are
rude or nice there are just some with the
noble hearts that will help you no
matter what. If you fall you get back up
and keep trying that's the whole point of
being trained and practicing. There will
come a time when you really have to
overcome your fears and let go of your
flaws. In order to do what is told you
will first have to pay close attention to
what is going on not everything is as
easy as it seems.
Theme
Believe in yourself.
The End!
I really enjoyed watching karate kid
because it showed how he was easily
losing his character flaws. Dre was a
kid from the city that learned how to
live in a completely different way
than in Detroit. He learned
something new as the days passed by
and didn’t forget how to use them
after he had learned them.
I am a very fun and outgoing person
to be around with, with many ways
of making you laugh.
