The Karate Kid

Daniel LaRusso moves to Los Angeles with his mother, Lucille, and soon strikes up a relationship with Ali.

Fortunately, Daniel befriends Mr. Miyagi, an unassuming repairman who just happens to be a martial arts master himself. Miyagi takes Daniel under his wing, training him in a more compassionate form of karate for self-defense and, later, preparing him to compete against the brutal Cobra Kai.
