Review of The Karate Kid (1984) by Sam J — 23 Oct 2018
This is cheesy and sentimental but in an 80s way so that makes it special. This is the difference between the 80s and today- there was a sense of charm in the way films were made. They made the product more endearing and special.
Something today's films with their over the top budgets and effects cannot manage. Ralph Macchio, Elizabeth Shue and Pat Morita star in this film and make something special of it. If you haven't seen it before you owe it to yourself to see it.
