From
Academy Award-winning director (1976, Rocky) John G. Avildsen
comes the highly
entertaining, coming-of-age classic that will leave you cheering! Starring
Ralph Macchio and Noriyuki
"Pat" Morita in
his Academy Award-nominated performance (Best Supporting Actor, 1984) as
Mr. Miyagi.
There is more to
karate than fighting. This is the lesson
that Daniel (Macchio), a
San Fernando Valley teenager, is about to
learn from a
most unexpected teach: Mr. Miyagi (Morita) an elderly handyman who
also happens to
be a
master of the martial
arts. So when he rescues Daniel from the Cobra
Kai, a
vicious gang of karate school bullies, Miyagi instills in
his young friend the importance
of honor and confidence as
well as
skills in
self-defense, vital lessons that will be called into play when a
hopelessly outclassed Daniel faces Johnny, the sadistic
leader of the Cobra
Kai, in a
no-holds barred karate tournament for
the championship
of the Valley.
