A classic that thrives on the deeply heartwarming and inspiring teacher-student bond between Daniel and Mr. Miyagi. The film also stands out for its iconic villains, with Johnny Lawrence and the Cobra Kai gang embodying the perfect antagonists, adding layers of tension and drama to the coming-of-age story.
