Review-
Theme Analysis: This
film brings out quite a
few themes, but the major one is coming of age.
Growing up in your teen
years isn’t so simple,
especially when you end
up in a foreign country.
This movie represents
bullying, falling in love,
and social displacementwhich are all part of
growing up. The main
character who is an adolescent boy slowly goes
through his teen phase
and discovers the world
around him.
The movie being PG is
directed for mostly teens.
Coming with a great story,
this movie has many positives. Jackie Chan and
Jaden Smith, both are able
to show their skills on
screen. The settings and
the directing are on point.
However, the plot
could’ve been a little more
original. The same old
storyline can help the
viewer guess the next
event, making a movie
seem slow– at least for a
teen. In conclusion, Karate
Kid will easily interest
and entertain younger kids
and qualify to be a popular
movie choice and middle
school parties.
The song Fix You (2005) is the one that stands ou t on our list.
Unlike the rest, it is slow. steady and effective. The reason it
was picked as the number 1 choice is because this song has
helped many teens through almost any situation. The lyrics
reflect back up on a lot of the problems teenagers go through
such as breakup, loss of a loved one or even bad day. The song
itself is very soothing and Chris Martin’s voice is also a perfect
fit. The climax is in the very end brings out many emotions.
That’s something that a lot of the teens need to carry on.
