Karate Kid: Legends opens this week, combining both Karate Kid movies from the 80s and Restart 2010 – which once wasn’t supposed to be in the same time/continuity axis as the original franchise.
Both Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan are now working when Karate and Kung Fu Senseis Daniel Larusso and Mr. Han, Karate Kid: Legends, connect these two worlds in a way they never imagined before. In honor of this up-to-date culmination, we made all five karate kid movies for you!
And so to answer your burning question, Cobra Kai from Netflix still remains a canon for legends. This does not mean that Cobra Kai characters will appear there, but Legends do nothing to inform or refuse events at Cobra Kai. Takes place three years After the final of Cobra Kai Legends, Mr. Han Chana, who is looking for Daniel Larusso for lend a hand in training and conducting a student of Li Fong, played by Ben Wang (Chinese born in America).
So what’s the best kid kid movie? All the originals present the slow, great Pat Morita as Mr. Miyagi, Daniel’s mentoring (or Julie Hilary Swank) through the brutal conflicts of life, while restarting brought Chan and Jaden Smith to repeat the early roles of Miyagi/Daniel. Here are all kid kid movies.
Distinction: Cobra Kai
It is a pairing series, so it does not qualify here, but Cobra Kai is a huge miracle in the field of older continuations. This is a six -season continuation of the first three kid kid films, which restores almost every aged character that you can think about, vacuums, sheds up-to-date delicate and turns them in a wonderful way. At all times, he introduces a completely up-to-date generation of karate students and their own interpersonal drama. Cobra Kai is so amusing that he created a up-to-date fan base for the series, many of which began to watch even without knowing the movies on which the series was based.
5. Next kid Kid (1994)
The only true karate saga for children is covered by Mr. Miyaga in Boston, offering turning into houses with the widow of his aged war buddy, so that he can strangely monitor her incensed, shielded regret of his granddaughter, Julie (Hilary Swank).
Yes, nothing is more perfect than a traumatic teenager who has just lost her parents in the case of a car, living with an elderly stranger, because her grandmother could not cope with her and needed a break. Another karate child is not a terrible film himself, but no one demanded the wisdom of Miyagi in the mid-90s (especially when part of it “transformed” Julie from her incensed phase and a girl who wears dresses) and no one suffered fools who were alpha alpha alpha-brush with uniformed bullies that were allowed to cruelly with jul in color, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym Ledym, Ledym, Ledym, Ledym sitting, Leda. The Dulana was called, which apparently had the freedom to beat children and/or order them bungee-jump-bomb-bomb for the matriculation ball. In any case, Julie, who already knows a lot of karate, before Miyagi trains her, kicks their ass.
4. Karate Kid Part III (1989)
Over the years, there was more and more retro for kid kid, and some of them may be related to Cobra Kai and like this program, especially he bought (or at least called) many more bizarre elements of this film.
In 1989 – and especially considering how the summer ’89 was crowded with immense hits – Miyagi/Larusso Shtick worn a bit slender. It was not the right time for the up-to-date kid kid movie and it certainly wasn’t the right time for these two best friends to escape, and Daniel briefly surrendered anger from the obscure side.
But part III – although it includes a millionaire to a toxic magnate with a cartoon magnate looking for emotional and physical revenge on a teenage boy, because he humiliated his aged military buddy – he still has silver lining (Terry). Sure, Daniel, as a master of All Valley, is strangely farewell to the last round (this is a stupid up-to-date principle of the tournament), but the film is still ending with a huge showroom. Adult men and “Bad Boy” Karate Mike Barnes (Sean Kanan), try to destroy the teenager’s life and this, barely, blow them up in the face. All this means that Cobra Kai has been banned in All Valley and … well, you’ll have to watch Cobra Kai for the rest. It’s better.

3. Karate KID (2010)
The 2010 kid kid was an effective, satisfying restart that you might think, taking into account the cash success, would have been observing much earlier than 2025. One that could even continue with Jaden Smith as a star.
One of the more surprising things including karate children is really faithful as a real remake. For example, they tell all the same rhythms from the original film from 1984. From a mother who tries to excite her son, moving to a up-to-date place, to Dre Smith will take revenge on his school persecutors with water, to disapproving the parents of his up-to-date girl … This is almost all one in one. Which we usually do not expect from restarting. Everything is usually a up-to-date approach to aged material. No, not that. Plays hits.
However, everything works again. Dre Smith is a nice up-to-date lead, Chan is great as Han (although his story seems a bit here too Dark), and China’s surroundings give this story a nice refreshing of karate-king fu.
2. Karate Kid Part II
Karate Kid Part II is a starring continuation, sending Miyagi and Daniel to Okinawa and involving them both in the aged drama of Miyagi’s girl. He made a lot of money, he had a great hit song (“Glory of Love” by Peter Cetera) and sweetly continued the story of Daniel and Miyagi’s unusual friendship. The end of Daniel’s relationship with Ali Off-Screen Elisabeth Shue seemed a typical purpose of the continuation, but Daniel, for our money, has an even better summer affair with Kumiko Tamlyn Tomita.
Although it is not as exceptionally great as the first film, part II provides goods as a continuation, recognizing that Daniel and Miyagi, which fans depends, regardless of their location. Daniel’s mother is moved to the side (although not as fun as in Part III), and the rest is very similar to the best strokes of the first film: New Girl, New Bully, Secret Move, Final Fight (this time to death!) Etc. In fact, he has more in common with re -launching 2010 than you think. Despite this, part II is more or less an true continuation that you want if it was made.
1. Karate KID (1984)
In 1984, Rocky director John Avildsen (who also began to direct two continuations of karate for children) gave us another thrilling, emotional story, this time about a teenage boy, newly transplanted from New Jersey to San Fernando Valley, who creates an unexpected friendship with an older Japanese man and scores a regional man and scores a regional older man Tournament. Karate Kid was a quick sleeping hit and he won Pat Morita an Oscar nomination for presenting a war veteran/karate Sensei Mr. Miyagi.
Do you know how in the future they never explain how Marty and Doc Brown are buddies? For example, this kid and this aged freak are Bff and nobody blinks? Karate Kid actually enters it and makes you invest and believe in a close bond created by a tormented teenager and lonely Golden Rączak (who is secretly a karate champion). When Daniel, who has not found only trouble from moving to California, says Miyagi that he is his best friend, you believe. And you buy a novice Daniel Larusso, who can go through the Karate Z tournament, for example about a month of training, because Miyagi gives him the naked basics of what is needed to fight and win (mighty emphasis, strategically and ideologically, defending).
Karate Kid is one of the most amusing and inspiring films from the 1980s. He has a great script, powerful performances and an electrifying story about the future. First Love, Quintessence of Bully from the 1980s (played by William Zabki) and the iconic special kick of the ACE-UP-The-Sleeve.
It still The best nearby.
