Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Movie DVD

Amazon.com:
A vast improvement over its immediate predecessor, The Karate Kid III, this appealingly understated 1994 drama features a compelling performance by Hilary Swank, who would later win a Best Actress Oscar® for her work in Boys Don't Cry. Swank plays 17-year-old Julie Pierce, the recently orphaned and troubled granddaughter of an old war buddy of Miyagi Yakuga (Noriyuki "Pat" Morita, the lone holdover from the previous Karate Kid films). Harassed at school by adolescent boys under the sway of an evil coach (Michael Ironside), Julie reluctantly finds refuge in the calm teachings of Mr. Miyagi. While the film's violence is as contrived and silly as that of the other KK features, the script provides exotic compensations via a subplot set in a peaceful Buddhist monastery. Still, it's Morita's crafty professionalism and Swank's emotional authenticity that makes this film more watchable than anyone might have expected. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - An Entertaining, Family Film
As a child, I always watched this movie with my father every time it was on TV. It is an interesting story in which an unhappy, somewhat rebellious teenager learns to deal with the pain of losing her parents. Through her friendship with Mr. Miyagi, she comes to respect herself by learning more about Karate and life in general. The only disappointment was that the "military coach?" at the high school was completely unbelievable. No American school would allow an employee to behave that way! Also, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - No complaints. :)
What can I say?? Amazon has the things you can't find easily..like DVDs of movies from 100 years ago...that you want to share with your children. I always look here first, because I love the access & reviews. Thank you!!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Squish just like grape
Teen Wolf II. Revenge of the Nerds II. Speed II. Dumb and Dumberer. Friday the 13th VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. Rocky V. What do all these movies have in common with The Next Karate Kid? They're all sequels that should have never been made. The first indication that this movie was a bad idea is that Macchio passed on it.

Hilary Swank plays Julie-san, a girl bullied in her high school. She's got anger issues, family issues, and the team of tough-guy jocks called the Alpha ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - A Sad End To a Great Series
Giving you a brief rundown of where I stand, I thought Part 1 was excellent. I thought Part 2 was even better. I didn't like Part 3 as much, but it did have an interesting theme as well as some great moments. This 4th chapter was really a sad end to this great series. Mr. Myagi is still in great form, but there are not many other good things I can say about this 4th chapter. In Daniel's absence, Myagi trains Julie Pierce (Hilary Swank). Julie is a really nasty girl, and even though she has some redeeming ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - milked the cow to death
To be honest I COMPLETELY hated this movie. It was so contrived and it actually ruined the series for me. I mean what "tough guy crew" picks on girls for fun. So lame.
Not to mention I prefered the characters that we came to love. If there was some reason they couldn't include Ralph Macchio, they shouldn't have made another. Nothing against Hilary Swank but I hated this film. Please don't watch.
