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.

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
jasminejax I think Kickin it is okay but what bugs me is Jack's sense of entitlement.He obviously thinks he is the best and looks down on people. My favorite is Jerry, he's cool, dances and a dork. When Jerry wanted to win the dance competition, they didn't take it seriously so I didn't get why there were mad when he ditched them. When they wanted to win a go kart and they thought Jerry wouldn't win it because he was broke, He ended up buying it and they were mad at him for buying it. They called it their go kart like they didn't buy it with their money. I hate Kim, she's too bossy and a know it all. Eddy is okay. Milton is okay too. Jack and Kim's relationship was overrated. Phil is awesome and so is Rudy. Jack's catchphrase is corny and he isn't perfect like the gang thinks he is. But overall Kickin it is quite good despite the laugh track and boring jokes.
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.
SanteeFats I don't know who the individuals who gave this series a 1 and a 2 saw. Yes this show is a little juvenile but it is rated TV 7 for goodness sakes. While I am not close to that age, I do find this to be a pretty well done show. I also find that the fact that Leo Howard actually does martial arts makes his actions on screen a bit easier to accept as real. I do believe that a lot of the hard stuff that is shown is just special effects and prepared props. Over all though this is a fun, decently done show. Olivia Holt does not have a martial arts background that I could find but does have an extensive dance and gym history which would allow her to appear as if she knew karate with descent props. There is a good blend of types in this show-Jerry the punk, Milton the nerd, Rudy the dork sensei. The real message in the show is that friends are friends and don't give up or abandon each other. I think that is a nice, positive message to send out. 3/4/2014- Okay this update is because I am not watching this program anymore. I gave it a chance after Olivia Holt left for another show and the whole plot line changed. It definitely deserves the TV 7 rating now and I think if there is a lower one they should get it. It is just way too stupid and not funny now.
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!
