  Third entry of The Karate Kid series is already a sign that it is too much and it shows the familiar elements of previous films in the series. The script is horrible, the plot suffers greatly, and the acting and directing are not up to par. There really is no need for a third sequel because part 2 was already pretty bad and pointless. This film lacked a truly engaging plot, great acting and good, memorable moments. The third film is a horrible, dull experience and it doesn't do anything to entertain you. Fragments of the original plot are still here, but the film lacks in new, effective ideas that really works. I hated the film, was really bored with it, and just when you think the franchise would get worst, they filmed The Next Karate Kid, which was awful, and went where the previous films went. The only difference is, the first one was a great, well written, memorable and fun picture that was compelling; however these films fail to deliver the magic that the original did. Poor acting, with a poor script and top it off with poor, sketchy directing from director John G. Avildsen, who directed the first one, it's a shame that he couldn't recapture the moments of the original. This is a bland addition to the series that isn't worth checking out. This third film adds nothing truly compelling, and I truly hated this film, and it's even clearer that sequels to the original were not necessary whatsoever. Watch with caution.

  Again with the unnecessary sequels. THE KARATE KID: PART III is a terrible film with terrible acting, terrible directing, terribly-written screenplay...everything about it is just terrible. It was an inevitable, but nevertheless bad, threequel.

• Martin S

  
  Pretty much as good as the first one. Two real badasses here...

• Dean !

  
  A so-so third effort as the original rival sensi from the first wants help from his old army buddy to get revenge.

  Again not as good as the first, of course, but its still actually quite good, getting alittle samey with the plot but it still works and lifts you by the end. The baddies still work well and the return of kove actually gives the whole thing a complete feel. It looks alittle TV… More
  Again not as good as the first, of course, but its still actually quite good, getting alittle samey with the plot but it still works and lifts you by the end. The baddies still work well and the return of kove actually gives the whole thing a complete feel. It looks alittle TV movieish this time but the different fighting styles confronting Daniel make it interesting and overall completes the trilogy well.

  More trouble from the Cobra Kai, this picks up after Daniel humiliated them in the tournament. I think it's a great overall story that really changes the pace of the first two, there's more of a threat this time around too. Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita continued to play into… More
  More trouble from the Cobra Kai, this picks up after Daniel humiliated them in the tournament. I think it's a great overall story that really changes the pace of the first two, there's more of a threat this time around too. Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita continued to play into their characters and conclude the series on a high note. It has all the great directing and cinematography from the first, proving that all 80s teen movies don't look like sets.

  Way too serious. The Karate Kid is supposed to be fun, goofy, awesomely 80's, mixed with some cool martial arts like the crane kick. The 3rd installment is all about maturity, dealing with business problems, etc... There are not many enjoyable parts to this movie except when… More
  Way too serious. The Karate Kid is supposed to be fun, goofy, awesomely 80's, mixed with some cool martial arts like the crane kick. The 3rd installment is all about maturity, dealing with business problems, etc... There are not many enjoyable parts to this movie except when Daniel-San climbs down a cliff to rescue a banzai tree, which is not supposed to be funny at all; it's ridiculous.

• Cassie H

  
  Just a great comeback for the end of the karate kid series.

• Manu G

  
  It's not as good as the first 2 but it still a very good movie, Daniel Larusso showing us once again that he can beat the odds with the help of Mr. Miyagi. A bad guy from KK1 attempts to gain revenge on Daniel and Miyagi, with the aid of an old army buddy.

  Martin Cove returns from the first film to try and turn Daniel-san bad! Will he succeed? Well, no. He won't. But we all knew that already didn't we. One was enough.

• Jason S

  
  In trying to recapture the feel of the first one they seem to have taken a step back.

• Leigh R

  
  It was alright.

• Dean M

  
  This third installment of a mentor-protege's next adventures is worst and boring than the sequels.

  They should have just stopped with the 2nd one

  The Cobra Kai master John Kreese (Martin Kove) wants revenge on Daniel (Ralph Macchio) and Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita). So he comes up with a ridiculous scheme with his Cobra Kai buddy Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) to separate Daniel from Mr. Miyagi's teachings. While the 2… More
  The Cobra Kai master John Kreese (Martin Kove) wants revenge on Daniel (Ralph Macchio) and Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita). So he comes up with a ridiculous scheme with his Cobra Kai buddy Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) to separate Daniel from Mr. Miyagi's teachings. While the 2 buddies hire Mike Barnes (Sean Kanan) to take the title from Danial. The plot is just cartoonish and the film doesn't have the charm and beauty of the first film. While if you saw one Karate Kid movie you've seen them all, that even goes for the remake. However the movie is mildly entertaining if you turn off your brain and don't take the movie seriously. The one thing I always liked about this silly 3rd film is that Griffith and Kove are actually fun together despite giving over the top performances. They were really good at playing assholes lol.

  The one where Danny and Mr Miyagi open a bonsai store, and then rescue a bonsai tree, and Danny rejects his training to become hardcore under a new teacher...who is deceiving him. And he learns how to "Sweep the leg". And there's another contest at the end.

• Lee K

  
  Alright of the three however couldve been better

• jason d

  
  Ralph Macchio put on the pounds for this role. I almost thought he was gonna fall off climbing the mountain.
