What critics compared The Golden Child to
…plays a lot like Michael Ritchie's The Golden Child: another fantasy film with a charismatic lead pitched at children but packed with stuff just over the line of appropriate.
Not since the Ajanti Dagger in The Golden Child has a knife been such a center of importance, but we never quite understand it.
