Synopsis

Run by Sensei Rudy, the Bobby Wasabi Martial Arts Academy is the worst dojo in the nationwide Bobby Wasabi chain and is in danger of closing. But things change when Jack reluctantly joins the dojo and meets his new crew, including tough guy slacker Jerry and confident martial arts expert Kim. The crew teaches a group of neighborhood goofballs about life, karate, and how to "kick it." Jack and the gang quickly realize their newfound friendship will take them places they've never imagined and, united, they can become unstoppable.

Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
mischievouslyradiant I started watching this a few days ago, and I love it! I love all the characters too, especially Jack! Seriously, what's wrong with some of you? Being very skilled doesn't make a person flawless, and there's nothing wrong with being very skilled. It doesn't make Rudy look like a joke, either. Sure, it's not like Rudy taught all that Jack can do from before moving to Seaford, but look at what Rudy has done for him (and the rest of his students) throughout the show. Rudy has made Jack better!I love Kim! On a personal note, I'll say this, though: for someone who likes to look good, she certainly doesn't think about taking dancing lessons. Anyway, she's an amazing character.Milton is nerdy, but sweet and smart and can fight if he gets in the zone. Same with the others. They CAN fight and they love karate, but I think they like being in the comfort zone a little more.They should make a movie. Lizzie McGuire got one, Even Stevens got one, Hannah Montana got one, Wizards of Waverly Place got one and also has a special, Good Luck Charlie got a movie too...Disney did karate, and now they're doing a spy show (KC Undercover). I can't believe I never gave those a try a long time ago. I love Kickin It and KC Undercover, among others, now. People! Give a show a chance, because letting others stop you by putting something down is letting them make up your mind for you. You might love it, and you might not, but that applies to everything else too.
erichedlund1 This show is one of the better children's sitcoms I've watched in a long time. I watched only a couple episodes of hannah Montana and I genuinely liked it. I think icarly was good and drake and Josh was fantastic. Suite life on deck and pair of kings were really funny and I enjoyed them. They've been progressively getting worse like victorious, lab rats, and crap shows like ANT Farm, sonny with a chance, and basically anything on Disney channel and nickelodeon. Kickin' it's previews and advertisements were weak. I watch the first episode and I was utterly impressed with the use of violence and martial arts rather than just one punch. I liked that they showed action but I'm confused with they didn't rate this show TV-Y7(FV) because there are fight scenes and violence in the majority of the episodes. They've gotten better until season 4. The fight scenes in seasons 2 and 3 were really good and it was entertaining. I watched 7 episodes of season 4 and there were no fight scenes in any of them. I was glad that Eddie's character was written because his character wasn't funny, interesting, or any physical capabilities. I was extremely saddened when Kim left because I liked her as a character as a positive, sassy, and confidently awkward person. Her relationship with jack was glossed over a lot but I wanted to see character development. Milton and jerry are annoying because their characters cannot be worked with. They can't fight but Disney XD can't trick me into thinking he can fight. Jerry was just obnoxious and idiotic. He can be funny but he just comes off as irritating. Jack's character is especially weak. Him being an expert close to Rudy's was bad because it made Rudy look like a bad sensei for him just showing up and being able to kick just as much butt as Rudy. Jack being a "flawless" character leaves no room for development or believability that he's in danger or has a problem. Rudy is a great sensei as where a mentor is supposed to discipline his students but that is played on as he's the most immature. He puts himself into weird situations and reacts as immaturely as possible. He can fight which is good and expected from a sensei. He's a funny likable character. He's my favorite. The show is genuinely funny with some good ideas.
kadiotatsuryu Kickin it it my opinion seems to be Disney's attempt to attract fans interested in action. Kickin it has a lot of potential. The fights scenes can be pretty cool at times, but other times they're just fake. The show has an incorrect balance of karate and comedy. Most of the actors are bad actors and like all Disney Sitcom type shows, tells a bunch of lame jokes. My main issue with the show is Jack. Jack is the character that makes me hate the show the most. And hatred for him is heightened further by the fact that he's probably like the main character. He's a very skilled martial-artist and has a near perfect moral compass. Why would you make your frieken main character a perfect person. Jack is the most cleeshay character in the series. His skills in karate put him in a league to high for any of his peers, even the blonde. If the show wanted to make Jack like this at the end of the series, okay. But he has been like this for day one. The episodes feature episodes in which Jack is shown to stick to his promises and do all the kind and Noble things...well, most times. At the same time, his friends make the wrong decisions and act more like teenagers, unlike Jack. Jack never loses and always seems to end up right in the end. Even when against his masters. I can at least appreciate the episode when one of his friends say "And let the Almighty Jack win yet another thing? Now way!" He said something like that.Anyone here that knows story or is a good critic knows this simple fact: PERFECT PEOPLE, MAKE HORRIBLE CHARACTERS! WHY?! BECAUSE IT LEAVES NO SPACE FOR CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!! WHICH IS IMPORTANT IN FICTION AND STORIES. We already know Jack's by far the best! Which is bad since the story's still young. The only time we ever came close to seeing a flaw in Jack is how he badly takes defeat, and even that was proved wrong when he was right in the end of it. Milton, seriously? Even Jaden Smith had to train for Karate Kid. I may not have gotten his name right, so just t be clear, I'm referring to the tall, blondish nerd. If I ever got my @$$ kicked by him, I'd never show my face in public again. Kickin' It has it's fair share of fake judo flips, but whatever.This show has the potential to be a show even Disney haters can appreciate but has a messy story, lame jokes and cheesy moments from Jack. Overall, I give it a 6/10, at a stretch. 6 is poor by the way.
MsMovie We are a family who loves karate and Disney, so this show was made for us really, but we also like the story lines and the kids are fun and there is a lot of humor in the show. It seems that Disney XD is aimed at boys OR kids who like Karate, cartoons, etc and the regular Disney channel is aimed at more general family programming, so we are really enjoying this newer show.The fact that some of the kids featured really do know karate just makes it a lot more fun to watch the fight scenes, and we love that the brother from Hannah Montana gets to play his real age finally instead of pretending to be just out of high school.We highly recommend this for all families to watch - good clean fun!
