If you loved All Is Lost, try The Karate Kid
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Action / Adventure / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to All Is Lost, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Karate Kid is
A kid gets transferred to China, which sounds like a punishment until he meets a girl and a kung fu master. The boy’s crush earns him a rival and a crash course in inner peace through high kicks. At least it gives local bullies a reason to fear the maintenance staff.
