No such thing a bad student, only bad teacher.
Teacher say, student do.
If do right, no can defend The Karate Kid certainly had its share of high kicks and body chops, but it was the story of hotheaded young teen Daniel Larusso and wizened old handyman Mr. Miyagi that kept audiences coming back for second and third viewings. Directed by John G. Avildsen, who also helmed the original Rocky , this film was another story of a triumphant underdog in a seemingly hopeless situation. A native of New Jersey, Daniel immediately feels out of place when he and his mother move to California s San Fernando Valley. The blond-maned local teens are a snooty, bullying lot, especially when Daniel sets his eye on the pretty debutante Ali Mills. Ali takes a liking to the young outsider, which really ticks off ex-boyfriend Johnny, the leader of the bullies.
