This unnecessary sequel to the surprise 1984 hit picks up exactly where the previous film left off, and though it's not a great movie, it could have been much worse.
In this one, Danny and Mr. Miyagi travel to Japan, where Danny finds himself in yet another karate showdown, and finds time to fall in love with a Japanese girl who's way hotter than Elisabeth Shue.
Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita return to their roles, and have just as much chemistry together as they did before, even if the novelty has worn off a bit.
Like many films from the 1980s, this one is most famous for its theme song, "Glory of Love".
Grade: B-
