The Karate Kid (Special Edition) description
John G. Avildsen not only directed Rocky, he tried remaking it over the years in a dozen different ways. One of them was this popular 1984 drama about a new kid (Ralph Macchio) in town targeted by karate-wielding bullies until he gets a new mentor: the handyman (Pat Morita) from his apartment building, who teaches him self-confidence and fighting skills. The screen partnership of Macchio's motor-mouth character and Morita's reserved father figure works well, and the script allows for the younger man to develop sympathy for the painful memories of his teacher. But the film's real engine, as with Rocky, is the fighting, and there's plenty of that. Elisabeth Shue is on board as the girl the klutzy Macchio dreams of winning. --Tom Keogh |

A BLIND BLESSING
|
| THIS WAS AN AWSOME MOVIE. I NAMED THE TITLE OF MY REVIEW "A BLIND BLESSING" JUST BECAUSE DANIEL DID NOT SEE THE MEANING OF WHY HIS TRAINER HAD HIM TO DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS, SUCH AS WASHING AND WAXING, PAINTING, AND ETC., BUT HE FINALLY SEEN WHY HE HAD TO DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS, AND IN THE END IT PAID OFF FOR HIM. WHEN WE GO THROUGH THINGS WE DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHY WE ARE GOING THROUGH THEM, BUT IN THE END GOD WORKS EVERYTHING OUT, THEN WE WILL FINALLY SEE WHY WE HAD TO GO THROUGH WHAT WE DID. MY SAYING IS, "WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS, TO GET TO THIS". |
