Not as good as the Karate Kid movies, but just a fun stupid comedy from the 90s. Kids will like it.
Is this a good movie? Probably not, but it is a fun nostalgic ride with a good Chuck Norris performance.
Yes, I like this film more than any of the Karate Kids. No, I don't know why.
A poor attempt at capturing the magic of The Karate Kid. With a weak plot and derivative story.
Cheesy as hell, but very enjoyable. Definitely following the Karate Kid formula to a tee.
When I was a kid I thought this was a good movie. As an adult I only appreciate Chuck Norris for the jokes/memes centered around him.
A good balance between 3 ninjas and Karate Kid (Though technically Chuck is a Tae Kwon Do master)
Low rent Karate Kid clone now with Asthma and Chuck Norris.
Classic Childhood flick. Used to love it but it doesnt really hold up.
Like most people I saw this when I was 12. I couldn't possibly think of a reason for you to watch this.
