If the Karate Kid, Rocky IV and The Last Dragon had a 3 way, their baby would be No Retreat No Surrender.
This movie rocked when I was a kid and it's flat out horrible now that my brain has matured past a 4th grade level. In case you have never seen it let me just hit the highlights.
Mobsters threaten local karate instructor and breaks his leg
Jean Claude Van Damme plays the bad guy and it's his first starring role.
Son vows vengence
Son befriends overacting black kid within 30 seconds of moving into new home
Son gets beat up by bullies
Son begs Bruce Lee gravesite to help him
Ghost of Bruce Lee shows up to train him
Son goes through Rocky III training montage
Son becomes badass
Son defeats JCVD after super charge of power upon hearing the title being screamed at him from black friend.
This movie has it all. Karate, JCVD shirtless, breakdancing, montages, killer 80's soundtrack, hot girl, mobsters, ghost of Bruce Lee...and an awesome title!
Please, oh please do this movie!!!
