The Karate Kid (1984)
Daniel LaRusso moves to Los Angeles with his mother, Lucille, and soon strikes up a relationship with Ali. He quickly finds himself the target of bullying by a group of high school students, led by Ali's ex-boyfriend Johnny, who study karate at the Cobra Kai dojo under ruthless sensei, John Kreese. Fortunately, Daniel befriends Mr. Miyagi, an unassuming repairman who just happens to be a martial arts master himself. Miyagi takes Daniel under his wing, training him in a more compassionate form of karate for self-defense and, later, preparing him to compete against the brutal Cobra Kai.

I love karate in this movie it is all about a boy named Daniel and mr miage who is the teacher of Daniel in karate soon than Daniel becomes to know more about karate and goes to a tournament against the bad opponent and wins with a snake swam and boo. Wins
The Karate Kid (The original movie) is a lot more bloody than the more modern version with Jackie Chan. I still thought it was a great movie!

This is the real deal movie of "The karate Kid". It's the original and sooo good. Same idea as the re-make. Both movies are good, just this is a little bit older! Watch it and hope you like it!!
