- Great Family DVD'sAs parents of young children, the TV does not always offer a good selection of movies that we can watch together. This DVD set gives us 4 family movies. We do prefer the original Karate Kid and the sequel, but they are movies that we can all agree on, young and old. Rating: - blast from the pastthese movies are just as great as i remembered them... ralph macchio was hot in the 80s, skinny, but he pulled it off pat morita has got to be the coolest neighbor ever and watching the karate kid II reintroduced me to a great peter cetera song: the glory of love so rock on ralph macchio, peter cetera, and pat morita oh yeah, hilary swank get's in on it at the end too Rating: - The classic collectionThe Karate Kid has been around now for over two decades. We bought this set of four movies because we think the Karate Kid is a good role model for our 4-year old boy. It's funny, when these movies came out, I did my best not to watch them because I was already a teenager and the Karate kid was this dorky younger teen for whom I didn't have any sympathy. Now that I am older, I see the real value in these movies. The boy went from being a self-absorbed "I'm so cool" dork, to learning the meaning of self-respect and dignity, while in the process earning the respect of others. This four-movie set is definitely worth the price if you value these personal traits. As a bonus we got to see the fourth movie which I hadn't seen before. Rating: - Morita's LegacyThis series of movies represent some of Pat Morita's best work, in my opinion. Having the set of 4 1nsures that I will always have the opportunity to view these examples of his innate humor and artistry. Rating: - My InspirationThis is the best collection of movies. The karate kid inspired me years ago to take up karate and, now a black belt, I watch these movies with an even greater understanding of martial arts. A must have for any child of the '80s!
