While John Hughs' films may be the standard for teen flicks in the 1980s, Hughs' films were just a few of the great and unique teen films to be released in that decade. Coupled with Back to the Future, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, the 80s was a rather unique time for teen movies. The Karate Kid just happened to be another one of those films. With the immortal Pat Morita leading the way, this film was not only touching, but put a whole new spin on the `zero-to-hero' story line which we have all seen too often. Ralph Macchio may have had no career after these film, but at least he proved to be comparable as Daniel (san. Sure, the ending and outcome proved to be a little predictable, but the film was still a winner.
There's so much to love about this classic. Whether it's the cheese-tastic 80's soundtrack, the plethora of quotable lines, or the incredibly lovable Mr. Miyagi, The Karate Kid is just such an enjoyable movie. It's the story of Daniel LaRusso, a kid who moves to a new town and runs into a lot of trouble with the school bully gang. In order to protect himself, he learns karate from his apartment mechanic, Mr. Kesuke Miyagi. In order to finally settle the conflict, Daniel agrees to fight in the upcoming Karate tournament, and it is only with the help of Mr. Miyagi that he will have the skills necessary to fight. This is the classic underdog story that we all know, but The Karate Kid does it in a wonderfully enjoyable and very high quality way.
