I was a big fan of the Karate Kid movies and loved the general message of Mr. Miyagi. But it seems that the main goal of this series is too backtrack that message by making the villians into heroes and reverting Macchio's and Zabka's characters into adolescence. Did Daniel really remember what his sensei taught him at all?? I don't think the writers understood the movies message. Not enough Eastern philosophy but too much ego and testosterone. Not sure if there was enough good material for an entire show but they went ahead anyway. I watched a few episodes from season one but Cobra Kai lost my interest. Additionally, I don't think there are enough POC. The few there won't be there long. Sappy, milquetoast message that retains only a shadow from the movies. Most of the Japanese characters are stereotypical at best. Not sure why it's rated so highly.

Why are there so many one stars reviews for this movie!?! It is a low budget movie with serious sound quality issues, but I've seen much worse movies and shows with barely any storyline and worse CGI effects and music. Come on.

Sean Patrick Flannery was the main reason people wanted to see this lil' gem but the low budget Minority Report knock-off probably belongs to another genre called "Graduate-student-cgi-self-produced-live-action-anime-inspired-I'll-hire-all-my-friends-to-make-this-one" category. Really, it's not THAT bad.

Besides, there are some actors that have bills to pay want to have a little fun with their skills. Years later, the generation after Z will find this and think it's awesome. Or maybe it'll be on Bad Moves and a Beat.

For those who just binged watched all of Shakespeare's plays and for some reason decided to watch this movie and your wrath inspire you to write a scathing review on IMDB? It's funny for what it is, don't expect Shakespeare or Hitchcock, please. Plus consider this -- actors have bills to pay too. NO spoilers that's all folks.
