The new kid on the block, teenager Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) finds himself the target of a group of bullies led by menacing karate student Johnny (William Zabka). Daniel discovers an unlikely mentor in the unassuming Mr Miyagi (Pat Morita, Oscar-nominated), who prepares him for a high-stakes karate championship through a series of menial chores and odd requests. Bringing martial arts into the American mainstream, The Karate Kid is an enduring underdog story from the director of Rocky that launched a franchise.
