“We make sacred pact. I promise teach karate to you, you promise learn. I say, you do, no questions.”
And with that, a Rocky-esque story about an annoying skinny punk from New Jersey who hits the ground in SoCal running - well, mostly into fists, feet and the ground - begins its training mode as a wise, old Okinanwan teaches him karate. After entering him in a karate tournament to save him beatings.
The Karate Kid is next up on All The Right Movies and, like Rocky, it’s effects are still being felt generations after its release.
