After such a winning formula, this film took a whole new step in regards to the sequel. Instead of the streets of Los Angeles, we see the streets of Japan and learn about Myagi's way of life. I said this with Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure in regards to Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, but this film tried too hard to be an actual film. Beautiful scenery, dark tension, and a fight scene that seemed a little over choreographed at the end. If the sequel had stuck to its original fun-loving formula, it would have been a better movie. Nonetheless, this is still a decent film to watch. 6.5/10
