In this sequel to The Karate Kid, Ralph Macchio and William Zabka reprise their roles in Netflix’s Cobra Kai. Zabka plays Johnny Lawrence from the original film who, after being defeated by Macchio’s Daniel LaRusso, has fallen from grace but decides to turn his life around by opening the Cobra Kai dojo after helping a local boy. Sounds like an awful reboot cashing in on 80’s nostalgia? Well it’s not.
Michelle said: “A sequel to The Karate Kid movies that Netflix saved from YouTube Red after it went belly up. It’s far better than it has any right to be, capturing enough of the goofy fun of the originals while also diving into what it means for these characters to solve all of their problems through, and base all of their self worth on, violence.”
