bad movie

The film is disappointing, with poor logic and full of loopholes. Based on three points. (1) I have never understood why this little Chinese girl likes this black kid? Is there any catalyst? Did not see it. The only explanation is that the movie wants to say that Chinese women look cheap since childhood. (2) Will Chinese children bully others for no reason? Especially bullying foreign children? The possibility is almost zero, why is there such a plot? The only explanation is to vilify Chinese people to cater to foreigners' anti-China mentality. (3) Why teach this black kid kung fu? Why don't I see why? The logic and reasons in the movie are very far-fetched. You must know that the teaching of real kung fu requires a very strict apprenticeship. I can still accept it after kneeling outside for ten days and eight days. I became an apprentice inexplicably. The true meaning is not manifested at all. In addition, this film is nondescript, I feel sick after watching it, and it is a thousand miles away from the interpretation of Kung Fu in "Kung Fu Panda".

[Liang had just injured Dre's leg]
Dre Parker: Do you think I could've won?
Mr. Han: Win or lose doesn't matter, Xiao Dre.
Dre Parker: You know that's not I mean.
[long pause]
Mr. Han: Yes. I think you had a good chance.
Dre Parker: So let's do the fiery cup thing.
Mr. Han: You don't need to fight anymore. You have proven everything you need to prove.
Dre Parker: What, that I can get beat up easy and then quit? That's not balance, that's not real kung fu. You said that when life knocks you down, you could choose whether or not to get back up. Well, I'm trying to get back up, and why won't you help me?
Mr. Han: Because I cannot watch you get hurt anymore.
Dre Parker: Please, Mr. Han, please.
Mr. Han: Just tell me, Xiao Dre, why? Why do you need to go back out there so badly?
Dre Parker: Because I'm still scared. And no matter what happens, tonight, when I leave, I don't want to be scared anymore.
