Original Movie: The Karate Kid 2
4:25 "This say you lucky."
Mr. Miyagi will always remain the humble hero that was the warrior that liked tending to his garden instead of fighting. He found a son in Daniel when Daniel needed a father figure. They guided each other through important moments of their lives.
The scene when Daniel consoles Miyagi about their dads was so moving and I'm glad that he was there for his teacher in this story.
"This punk with incredible fashion sense..." Thank you so much for that
I'll say this about Sato... When Miyagi came to save him during the storm, Sato honestly believed he was there to kill him while he was defenseless. And yet, he didn't filch, didn't beg for his life. He stared his impending death directly in the face without fear.
The man had grit. You got to give him that.
And it's admirable that Mr. Miyagi didn't take offense or advantage of that. To him, Sato was still his friend, and he wanted to save him.
Yep. But blinded by anger. Anger can empower you, but often ends up enraging you till all you see is red. You can't see, only seethe.
Sato had a good redemption arc, a bit rushed in the movie though.
@@raterus Not necessarily;
powerfully intense experience like that in the middle of an ultra high-risk environment like a hurricane, can indeed make a man do not only a total turnaround, but a surprisingly fast one - especially when taking into account that there already was still some lingering good in the man that was struggling to ber let free.
@@Non_Descript_Individual Did you just make that up? 😛
"Each movie he unlocks a new move!"
🤣🤣🤣
Daniel attempting the crane kick and failing, so he has to 'drum punch' is hilarious. It's just consecutive haymakers 😅
The actual technique is outside block to straight/cross/hook punch. Though the way Daniel executed it with haymakers was probably because he was gassed/tired. Sloppy, but it worked.
My only complaint/flaw in the movies is Daniel getting beat but winning with a single cliche’ move. Otherwise I love this movie.
Imagine it with a "wax on/off" plus "sand the floor" that turns into a hit (something like that. -ish. More or less.)
@@RichardinNC1 That's the 80s for you, though.
Came for the karate. Stayed for The Glory of Love.
Peter Cetera FTW!
@@paulhewes7333 Peter Cetera is the opposite of bada$$ per Johnny Lawrence. 😂
And fancy shirts!
16:41 my favorite 🎶
@@gustavovm491 Chozen do have some nice shirts
The real battle was VKunia resisting the bully's fashion sense.
Chozen will return with even cooler shirts in his collection. :)
@@CoffeePaladin popped collars on loose button ups... 50s fashion with 80s attitude 😎
Yes and she was taking L's....Chozen was rocking them silk shirts like nobody's business.
Well if she's single we know her weakness 😂
Her reaction about how Sato will “build a Walmart” was funny. Foreshadowing??? 😂
It was one of the funniest comments in the reaction to me. 😂
I was fr like "oooooooooh who gon tell her? "
Beat me to it, just commented something similar 😂
She's already picked up on the redemption theme(she calls it "change of heart") and she's not even to Cobra Kai yet. 😁
Not far off
"Isn’t this movie about Karate?"
This entire franchise is about Mentorship. The father/son relationship it creates and What happens when it goes right or wrong.
I spent 10 years in Okinawa, loved it so much I brought a bit of it home with me. We have been married 30 years! It is a lot more modern than shown in this movie though.
Cobra Kai brought us to a modern Okinawa.
When they are breaking ice, I felt like Soto looked with slight admiration at Daniel’s breathing technique like he was thinking, “I recognize these techniques and respect that the old ways are being taught.” This look is kinda defeated by the shock on his face after it worked.
That's an interesting takeaway. One thing I noticed after several years and several rewatches, the guy who runs into Daniel and Kumiko in town and invites them to the dance, was actually setting them up. He then ran and told Chozen that they would be there.
Sato knew Daniel would break em'
@@SurvivorBri Now we know why they got BD Wong to play the part from SVU and M. Butterfly. Didn’t want to trust an extra with such an important plot point.
Sato is like "yup I'm out 1800$"
@@SurvivorBrivery possible
Her Karate Kid Arc will be incredible
So good to see someone continue this franchise! Part 2 is actually my favorite in the series and Cobra Kai is a must watch after the movies! 😊
Yesssss
"Oh my god, this punk -- and his wonderful fashion sense. I really like that shirt. That's my favorite one so far."
I really liked this movie more than the others because it's about Mr. Miyagi and his past. Plus I love this movie's theme song "Glory of Love" performed by Peter Cetera.
Peter Cetera is the opposite of bada$$. j/k. QUIET!!! 😂 Glory of Love and Everything I Do (Robin Hood - Bryan Adams) are my favorite love themes. ❤
Several of the main Japanese characters are actually played by Americans, the characters of Mr Miyagi, Mr shirt guy Chozen, and Kumiko. They had to put on Japanese accents for the film.
KK2 was actually filmed in Hawaii.
WTF? Chozen and Kumiko actors are 100% japanese...
@@joemckim1183ya, the mountain ridges sorta give it away
The actress who played Kumiko was more recently in Star Trek: Picard
Sato's actor was Hawaiian, if memory serves.
This is my favorite one! I love the cinematography of the Tea Ceremony scene. Just love the way that was filmed all around.
It's such a beautiful film
"Don't know. Never been attacked by tree." LOL!!! My favorite line from all the movies in the franchise! Keep going on these and really hope you do the Cobra Kai series afterwards.
This one's my favorite of the Karate Kid films. It's such an emotional and layered story and I adore it. I was so happy to see Miyagi essentially step up to be the main character and set the whole film in Okinawa.
V's internal conflict over her loathing of the young villain and her love of his wardrobe is best karate match!
I'm wondering if she's going to watch the series Cobra Kai after watching the Karate Kid movies; I really like how they developed Chozen in that series after what happened in this film.
Was just coming here to say the same! V! Loving these reactions. Karate kid part three is severely underrated in my opinion and you have to watch it after this and then please watch the cobra Kai Kai series with us! The final season is coming out next! It is AMAZING
I don't seriously know how anyone can stop watching Karate Kid/Cobra Kai content knownig that there is more out there to be watched.
@@joemckim1183well even though they're good, they're somehow viewed as not related to the "og masterpiece" Kk1 which is kinda dum like rocky which was just based of ali vs a random dude, got like 10+ sequels and creeds, without people hating it. But when karate kid does it everyone hates it? Even though it's an og karate?
maybe ?? 👀
@@lightningjadejavier Don't you dare disparage the Rocky/Creed movies. Other than maybe Rocky V they're all great movies.
2:05 Funny coming from a guy preaching "no mercy" , teaching his students to do evil in his dojo
If not for the Cobra Kai series, I would have considered this the real series finale with Daniel and Kumiko. 😂 That tea ceremony is basically a proposal.
Funny that V mentioned Tekken, as Tamlyn Tomita played Jun Kazama in the live action movie.
Karate was huge in the 80s and early 90s in the US. I was born in 85 and took karate and tae kwon do for a few years in the early 90s.
Yes! Yes! Yessss!!! Now do:
•The Karate Kid Part 3 (my personal favorite)
•The Next Karate Kid
•The Karate Kid (2010)
•Cobra Kai Seasons 1-6
I would say, personally, Next and the reboot are more optional if we're thinking setting up Cobra Kai. But yeah.
Not a fan of the 2010 reboot. Too formula, no heart.
right, except skip The Next Karate Kid and The Karate Kid 2010. it's 1, 2, 3... then Cobra Kai. those other two movies are BS movies that don't exist in this dojo.
@@oktober-vh6gl Everybody hates on The Next Karate Kid. While it wasn't as good as the first three, I still liked it for what it was. Plus, there is still a chance it may connect to the Cobra Kai series. In some ways, it already has when (minor show spoiler) Daniel referenced that it had been a long time since Miyagi-do had two students.
@@oktober-vh6gl Except for the fact that the CK producers proclaimed that since the "Next Karate Kid" starred Pat Morita as Miyagi, which makes it officially canon for Cobra Kai... Julie appearing in the final season is more a matter of Hilary Swank's availability and desire to come back more then anything... If she called them and said she is ready to do it, the producers/writers would have made it happen... No word on if she did or not... If memory serves, they DID go back to reshoot some scenes... No real explanation given... So it is POSSIBLE Julie will appear... Just HIGHLY unlikely...
Even Dutch could possibly give a surprise appearance, despite the fact that Chad McQueen has made it ABUNDANTLY clear that he has absolutely NO interest in returning... Only a miracle could make this happen...
Out of all four movies The Karate Kid Part II is my absolute favorite. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Two down two to go for you then the series Cobra Kai
Everytime I rewatch this, my blood boils thinking of that punk ass wannabe acting tough towards my boy yet ran away when his uncle needed him.
Oh cmoon, have u even seen cobra kai?
@@lightningjadejavier Mate obviously things change later on. She doesn't know that yet.
@@MrCoolAttitudeyeah but don't act like you haven't even seen the NEW chozen.
Hear me out - before Cobra Kai series - How I Met Your Mother, Season 8 episode 22 - "The Bro Mitzvah" to learn the untold backstory of The Karate Kid!
definitely
What about Daniel is the Real Bully video on YT? 😂
The cobra Kai series shows the complete transformation of chozen he explains how that fight Daniel changed his life forever
The first and second Karate Kid movies are all about the relationship between Mr. Miyagi and Daniel: Teacher & Student, Man who finds the son he never had & Boy finds the father figure he doesn't have; and their deep friendship. Karate Kid 3 is like Rocky V, it just lacks the heart of the other films. Cobra Kai re-kindles all that feeling.
In college I had a class in raku pottery. That's all the things used in tea ceremony, like the teapot, bowl, and cups. My teacher had just arrived from Osaka and his English wasn't perfect but he was really nice. At the end of the semester we had a big tea ceremony using all the things we made.
The crane kick doesn't work on Chozen because he also trains Miyagi Do Karate, everyone good or bad guys in this movie are Miyagi Do Karate practitioners.
“He pleaded for death, but instead, he got his nose honked “😂😂😂
hearing someone say that made me actually LOL. for some reason it was much funnier than the movie scene itself
Out here, on the streets, mercy is for the wrronnnk!
I agree with everyone, cobra Kai should be soon after 3. Keep the memory fresh. We had nostalgia, but a marathon for you should do nicely.
Cobra Kai is the best follow up to an original series since Star Trek:The Next Generation
The first movie was mainly about Daniel.
This one is mainly about Miyagi.
The third one is mainly about cocaine.
and revenge
@@pgorodiloff and pounding
Snort the leg! Oops, I mean sweep the leg!
My personal favorite Karate Kid movie. Chozen was my favorite villain of Daniel and is my favorite character in Cobra Kai. And Kumiko should’ve ended up with Daniel fr
I think someone has a secret crush on the bad boy Chosen....
The primary reason we didn’t see Ali again was because Elizabeth Shue took a break from acting to focus on her studies while attending Harvard.
The opening scene of the aftermath of the tournament, including Kreese’s defeat and humiliation was originally meant to be the ending of the first movie.
Seeing how much you're enjoying the movies after part 3 I definitely suggest checking out the Cobra Kai series it's amazing you'll be quite surprised at just how good it is
I've seen both Karate Kid films and they are really good Pat Morita
was a great actor i used to watch him on Happy Days as Arnold
and Ralph Macchio is a great actor as well, have a good week
and thanks Vicky.🇺🇲🙋📺🇺🇲
'That shirt', was typical 80s fashion.
A light, loose fitting, cotton shirt with some stone washed jeans.
You just can't get them anymore. Not like they were.
I miss them.
It was late '80s Asian fashion. In the West the style was very different than the Asian one shown on in the movie.
Ok so after the 3rd one, I think we would all love if you started the Cobra Kai TV series. It is incredible and I'd love to see your reaction to it. Now, there are 2 more movies after 3 but neither one of them have anything to do with Daniel-San and so are largely unimportant.
They could possibly change that in the upcoming season 6... Unlikely, but possible...
@@js3599 mm I didn't think about that. Regardless, there is no way they could work in the Jaden Smith one. It connects to nothing. At least the 4th film involved Mr. Miyagi but is Hilary Swank even still making movies??
@@illam9500 I had to look it up, but yes, she is still acting and producing, with her most recent movie released this year... I have heard she has been too busy to do CK... I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that she did have some interest in returning in some fashion, but I am not too sure on that one... However, her exact quote on returning to CK is "I don't think I am, unfortunately," Certainly not as solidly against it as Chad McQueen has been...
And yes, the remake is NOT considered canon with the others, because it does not involve Miyagi... I have even heard that even the upcoming new movie is not directly related to CK either, but it is tied to the movies... It DOES, however star both Ralph Machio AND Jackie Chan...
at least until the release of the new movie that just finished production.
Oh heck yeah, please say you react to them all, Cobra Kai included. Such a great show.
Here's to hoping she'll see the comments and she'll watch karate 3 and then cobra kai!!! 🍷
I love how much you’re loving this franchise. One of my favorites. ❤️
Miyagi is precious! 🥰
I see VKunia watching Karate Kid II and I hit the like button.
I already know that I'm going to love this reaction. 😊
RIP always to Pat Morita(Mr. Miyagi)!!!
I love this movie! This is the best sequel(besides the Netflix follow-up series Cobra Kai) to the first movie.
I love that not only do we get the recap of the first movie, but it picks up right after the first one ended.
Here we get to travel to Okinawa were we learn more about Mr. Miyagi's past. I always loved how Daniel insisted on being there for Mr. Miyagi when he needed Daniel's support for his ailing father. And we learned what happened to Daniel's father.
Fun Fact: The scenes that take place in Okinawa were filmed in a part of Hawaii that had a similar climate to Japan.
Already looking forward to your reaction for "The Karate Kid Part 3" and then onto "Cobra Kai".
Looking forward to your next reaction. 😊
Apparently The Karate Kid 2 is a movie about popped collars.
Johnny never really had a change of heart. Wait till you get to the Cobra Kai series and find out.
Daniel getting on the plane with Miyagi and miyagi saying "yeah hes coming with me" and that just works??? And then i remembered this came out before *the incident* and airports were very different
VKunia:"Oh so this is gonna be about Mr Miyagi? Mr Myagi is the karate kid in this film?"
Me: "Always was." And the Community speech came to mind:
"The Karate Kid is about Keisuke Miyagi an immigrant who fought against his own people in World War II while his wife lost a child in an internment camp. Noriyuki Morita was nominated for an Academy Award for his performance. Ralph Macchio, showed up!"
To some people "respect" just means obedience.
obedience, or order?
@@radiofreeastrocast3010 Found one. It's always authoritarians.
@@radiofreeastrocast3010 The two are not always one and the same, and the malevolent will try to sell the former as the latter for nothing mroe than self-pleasure.
The classics are 🔥 . I met Martin Kove aka John Kreese and he’s a chill dude.
80s movie villains are played by real nice guys. 👌 Tom Wilson aka Biff Tannen is another one.
@@abeartheycallFozzy And Ronny Cox, Kurtwood Smith AND Paul McCrane.
Oh, AND Clancy Brown!
Shes gonna absolutely love Cobra Kai.
One of the best Sequels
3 is the best imo, a lot more context is added in the cobra kai series as well. Hopefully you decide to react to it since S6 is coming up soon! 🥇
the best? the one that didn't have a finished script? it is watchable and parts of it are pretty good.... but best? no
@@AddSerious its the best because its so bad and over the top
@@AddSerious KK3 adds a great villain in Terry Silver but overall its the weakest of the trilogy. I think its still a good movie and totally necessary to watch before Cobra Kai series.
@@amj_886 "Your karate is a joke"
@@joemckim1183 Terry Silver was amazing. Here is a man who is truly unhinged evil. Over the top campy? Absolutely, but it's effective the way it's presented.
Something funny that no one ever catches... Chozen is actually cheating himself using fake weights. 😂😂😂
Miyagi and Daniel have one of the best Father/Son relationships in cinema. I love them on screen together.
Lets goooooo more karate kid love this franchise ❤
The Karate Kid universe is one of the most fun soap opera settings out there. Can't wait for CobraKai
Fun fact: at 14:35 if chooji is using a fake weight, he must add more of them for reach 1 kg of food . Basically he was underselling his food and Daniel by reveiling he trush is making people pay more for the same amount of food :P it was a little movie mistake :D
Not one of his smarter plans
24:49 "It's like the boss battle in Tekken. It's gonna be so hardcore" You got the greatest comments
Tekken gets referenced later on Cobra Kai with Anthony’s PSP Vita. 😂
Been meaning to watch Cobra Kai since long but somehow couldn't start.. After watching reaction video of Karate Kid I started watching the series and it's awesome.. People who like Karate Kid should definitely watch Cobra Kai..
You realize after you watch part 3 you have to start the Cobra Kai series. Lol. Oh and in the comments people. No spoilers.
Karate Kid II tells us more about Daniel and Mr Miyagi's past. Karate originated from Japan (contrary to what some people think no it isn't Chinese) and in this film we learn about the backstory of Mr Miyagi and Karate.
in Japan honor means everything, what Mr Miyagi did may have been the more mature thing...but many people wouldn't see it that way.
Cobra Kai is an awesome series! All of the same actors and characters are in it.🤞✌️
17:14 "Come to the dance tonight. Oh, bring your friend."
Son of a gun. That's B. D. Wong.
You mentioned how the "baddies" have a change of heart. Redemption is an ongoing theme in the Karate Kid/Cobra Kai universe.
*_BRING ON THE KARATE KID 3!!!_* 🤩👍
I'm a simple man. I see VKunia watching Karate Kid II and I hit the like button.
My favorite reactor and favorite Karate Kid movie. :)
Pat Morita is absolute fire too 🔥
Karate kid III is a wild ride, and if you love scenes that tug at your heart strings, the Cobra Kai series is a must see. Don't worry about any other karate kid films, they don't really add anything. Just go straight onto cobra kai after part III
"He's going to build a Walmart" - not far off, if you know, you know
😅
Pat Morita and Nobu McCarthy were married on Happy Days in 1976. Both are in their early 50s when this movie came out. Ladies and gentlemen, B.D. Wong @17:15
I was just a kid after the first Karate Kid was released but I do remember the movie was so successful and inspiring that karate enrollment skyrocketed throughout the country. Producers wanted the beginning of KKII to be the ending of the first Karate Kid but decided to place it in KKII. I remember the high anticipation going into the sequel as there was alot of merchandise: booklets, posters, stickers, buttons, tshirts and even action figures. I recall begging my dad for $5 to purchase a KKII booklet at our school's book fair. I wished I had kept it as it had many nice still photos of the movie and a poster was included. That was one of the reasons why this franchise means alot to me and overall, it's a classic.
I had the same book and poster!!!
I’m hoping the fact you brought out the first movie reaction and second movie reaction so close together means you’ll be pumping these out
FUN FACT: The Opening Scene was actually filmed at the same time as the first Movie, and was intended to be the ending of Part 1, but ofc they changed it
Confucius says:
One who catches fly with chopsticks
could accomplish anything...
if one hadn't already wasted one's life trying to catch a freaking fly with freaking chopsticks
Congratulations on going down the Karate Kid rabbit hole. In case you watch the Cobra Kai series (which you should) it's a continuation of the Karate Kid movies. More info in that The Karate Kid 1, 2, 3, and The Next Karate Kid are all considered canon for the Cobra Kai series and there will be many callbacks to these movies in the series. Have fun watching and you've earned another subscriber with your efforts. 👍
My favorite moment in the movie 22:00 :
Chozen: "Act of coward!"
Missed Miyagi response: 'You are right. I should have sent 6 armed men to you're home while you sleeping.'
Just my opinion.
If you never thought that Daniel LaRusso & Noriyoshi Miyagi had a father/son relationship before that moment Daniel sits with Mr. Miyagi and comforts the man after his father's passing just cements how much they love each other
She is just so pure. I love her reactions so much.
After you have caught up with KKIII, you MUST start Cobra Kai - it's an amazing show that (eventually) brings back almost everyone from the first 3 movies! And it is so complex and both heart-warming and heart-wrenching!
Love how the WW2 bunker is now a repurposed storm shelter.
Like everyone else is saying, right after "Karate Kid 3" you MUST watch the Cobra Kai series ... it elevates everything immensely.
You're gonna love one of the most psychotic and over the top villains in KK3: Terry Silver.
Another favorite of mine. Such an amazing movie. And Okinawa is a really beautiful place. That is one of the places I went to while serving in the Navy. Not to mention how it made me feel walking on ground where people fought and died in World War Two. That is a very humbling experience.
17:55 Clarence Gilyard aka Jimmy Trivette from Walker, Texas Ranger
Sato is played by Danny Kamekona, Hawaiian background. This was a big thing filming a major motion picture in Kaneohe on Oahu (Hawaii). If you lived in Hawaii you know where in Kaneohe they filmed, unmistakable background. Lots of local (Hawaii) actors, Pat Morita is not from Hawaii but was welcomed as a local. So wonderful you enjoyed Mr. Miyagi, beloved character! Keep going for part 3 and 4. 4 is a bit different, some changes (no spoilers) but should be seen if you want to to continue the story.
You would have loved the 80's clothes and scene, please react to more 80's movies ( and other stuff) if you can find them.
12:27 this is my favourite scene in the whole Karate Kid franchise. Just so heartfelt.
watching all the karate kid movie lead to a perfect corba kai show AMAZINGLY
Annnnnd yes. Most people go to Okinawa just for karate. Even those American servicemen learn and take karate back home. I’m a teacher of Okinawan shorin ryu. Been studying karate for 42 years.
i am sure you remember, the tea ceremony is an expression of them falling in love.....as she explained when the others were having tea......so, yes, every action is thought out and deliberate
23:00 Sato's nephew looks like a Yakuza (game) character in that shirt and I love it.
"...it was a threat against the vegetables." LOLLLLLL
2 things - Tamlyn Tomita (Kumiko) gets even more beautiful as she matures, and also, if you like dynamic villain arcs, you'll love the Cobra Kai series. It's so incredibly well put together.
"What is this, a Telemundo fkn soap opera?"❤😂😂😂❤
Just totally love you and your reaction channel, V....
#VKunia
2 more to go and then the reboot
The Karate Kid Part III (1989)
The Next Karate Kid (1994)
The Karate Kid (2010)
Kreese will return to the third. But this time, he won't be alone.
Social ballroom dance still happens. I used to teach it back in the late '90s to early oughts.
This is my personal favorite one of the trilogy! Im glad you immediately jumped to this one! More Miyagi and Daniel its a perfect sequel.
