The Next Karate Kid

The Next Karate Kid is not that good like the original films, but Pat Morita still plays the best character of Miyagi, and his performance was good. Hilary Swank was good, but not the best female Karate Kid chose to be honest. I like Ralph Macchio as Daniel and he's still the best Karate Kid student of all time. The 4th movie is the second best Karate Kid movie, but that's coming from a serious that has some bad moments. So take it for what it's worth.

I don't understand why this came about. If it was supposed to be a girl version or something. I don't know. But it was totally unnecessary. But I'll start with the good stuff. I love the Karate Kid series and I've seen the whole trilogy, and I've seen the Cobra Kai series, so I ended up picking this up to get the full thing. I don't regret it because I got to see Mr. Miyagi again, which was nice, but that's about it. The story was pretty much nothing for me. The location wasn't great either, although the monastery was still more interesting than Okinawa in my opinion, but still not much. I just don't get it. I take it that it was simply a case of milking the brand and they wanted to make some more money from the series. This was so unnecessary. For me, a bad movie that I don't recommend even to fans of the franchise.

Despite being really sceptical before this movie even started, in the end it turned out to be ok. I can't say i'm going to be racing to see it again but it wasn't as bad as I imaged. There was a good story line and the acting was fine. Just a typical throw away 90's film.
