Seen: ?. I know I have seen this multiple times as a young child, but this is my first time seeing it all the way through beyond the age of ten. It's cheesy, it's dopey, but it's fun. The journey was drawn out, and yet the ending was strangely abrupt.

This is definitely a classic film, and the hardest in the series to forget - but it's still flawed. The fight choreography isn't very realistic, but because you care about these characters, you forgive where there may be imperfections in those technicalities.

First time I'd actually watched this in full. Enjoyed the Morita/Macchio chemistry in their downtime. I wish people saw Morita's Miyagi was less of a stereotype since it was actually a fairly progressive character for the time. Good side character depth. Macchio weakest link since he looked so lost. Great music. It's not even so much an '80s movie as it is a good kids movie. Fav scenes: Morita talking about his wife and kid @ internment camp; "You're the Best" montage.

This is probably the best in the series. As Mr. Miagi teaches this young boy karate with the wax on was off. I remember that when I re watched this. "show me Paint the fence" stuff like that. I guess TMNT got the idea from this movie because the characters and story is very similar to this.
