Well it's the 80's so it's time for every film to spawn a franchise right? 2 years after the comeback Karate Kid, audiences craved more of the dynamic duo: Mr. Miyagi and Daniel Larusso! This time traveling to Okinawa, Japan to face Miyagi's past--audiences blew this out of the box office but it was met with a divisively, mediocre critical reaction. Why was this a box-office success but a critical blunder and is this the best in the trilogy? Join Corbin and Allen as they review The Karate Kid Part II to find out!

 

Question after the show: Do you like this sequel at least slightly better than the original?
