Literally picking up about five minutes after the conclusion of the 1984 The Karate Kid, this 1986 sequel, also directed by John G. Avildsen, sends Ralph Macchio's and Pat Morita's characters to the latter's home turf in Japan, where the older man is confronted by an old rival, and Macchio's newly confident fighter gets a tougher challenge than the punks back home. Sillier than its predecessor, this follow-up at least has some distracting soap opera elements in Morita's coming to terms with an old flame, while Macchio woos a lovely local girl. Ironically, it's the action that evokes laughter, particularly a climactic fight that gets over the top quickly. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - YOUR FEAR MAKE AIR STINK!
Following Daniel-San's (Macchio) triumphant, albeit incredibly improbable, victory at the All Valley Under 18 Karate Tournament, there is little time to celebrate. Mr. Miyagi (Morita) gets a letter from Okinawa informing him that his father is dying. He knows this is a potentially deadly situation because of an old grudge with his former best friend Sato. Nonetheless, Miyagi let's the recently dumped Daniel-San (it was only a matter of time before Elisabeth Shue realized she was dating a sissy) ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Phenomenal Followup
I thought the 1st "Karate Kid" was excellent, and I think II is an EXCELLENT followup. In Part 1, we learned about Daniel and his situation. 2 takes it to the next level. After meet Daniel, we soon learn more about Myagi. (To the next level!) Myagi learns that his father (still in Japan) is very ill. While this is hard enough of a trip to make, Myagi realizes that he also has to risk running into an old friend who has an unresolved dispute with him. (Great expansion of myagi's past!)

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - KARATE KID PART 2 IN NOT DOO DOO!
This is a pretty good sequel! It doesn't quite have the magic of the first film, but it does have a beautiful new setting in Okinawa. Macchio and Morita are great again in this "Rocky" type underdog movie. Like "Rocky" the sequels are kind of formula, but very watchable 3 1/2 stars!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - rumble in Hokido
This was the second movie in the series to be released. It was made about two year after the first movie came out in the middle 1984. For those of you that did not see the first movie there is a briefy flash back lasting about 5 to ten minutes at the beginnig showing some of the footage from the first movie. Daniel travels to Onknowa were he gets involved in a brutal feud between mr Manyagie and his rivial who trained under his sick father. Shortly after the father dies of an illness the rivial and his sons ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Best of the Karate Kid movies
This was the only movie in this series I wanted on DVD. This movie is very
romantic, and the exotic setting just makes it even more enjoyable. I
actually liked the movie because of the romantic part of the story rather than the fight scenes. Great DVD!
