Review by anonymous (posted on 12-May-2006)

Daniel is an Italian kid who quickley becomes the stand-out of the blonde Californian Crowd. He befriends a nice girl Ali on the beach on his first day of moving. It leads to trouble after Ali's ex-boyfriend Karate champion John comes by. After Daniel is being bullied on a daily basis by John, he soons starts to try to defend himself. Then he meets Mr. Miyagi who soon helps Daniel with karate, and promises to John's karate sensai that Daniel and John shall fight at the Karate Tournament. He soon gets more than he ever could, a new love for Ali, more confidence in himself and creating a wonderful friendship between him and his fatherly friend Mr. Miyagi. After all his training, it was time to show he could be someone for his mother, Mr. Miyagi, his friends and his girlfriend Ali. It is and remains an 80's classic.
