Failure to branch out

The Karate Kid, Part 3 (1989)

Directed by John G. Avildsen this second sequel stars Ralph Macchio, Pat Morita and Robyn Lively. Daniel and Mr Miyagi open a bonsai tree store while a friend of the antagonist from the first film seeks revenge.

Essentially the plot for this film is just a rehash of the plot from the first film as it seems the writers had run out of ideas. There are several elements of the plot that are just plain silly or do not really make sense which does not help either. While there is one nice sequence where the two protagonists practice on the top of some cliffs there is not much else to write home about otherwise.


2/5
