Karate Kid II vs. Karate Kid III

2...I GUESS.

I go with III because Terry Silver is just so comically evil and, while I genuinely enjoy the Danny-Miyagi relationship, I can’t take these films all that seriously.

II is a bit too restrained and lacking in karate, III leans into the absurdity of this friendly, good-natured kid constantly attracting psychotic karate bullies 🤣
