While not quite what I was expecting, it was fairly decent. I initially rated it as a 6, but after a little thought about it standing on its own versus my expectations, I decided to increase it to a 7. I loved Matthew Page, he was fantastic and I wish he had a bigger role.

This was actually pretty good. Parts of it were really amusing, and the story, while not original, was entertaining. The actors had good chemistry together, and I thought that film worked pretty well overall.

The actors were amazing, and the fighting was well done. 10❤- Masterpiece 💯 9❤- Excellent 8❤ - Amazing 👌 7❤- Great 🌞 6❤ - Good 👍 5❤ - Average 🤕 4❤ - Bad but watchable :octagonal_sign: 3❤ - Bad 😭 2😡- Awful :face_vomiting: 1:face_with_symbols_over_mouth: - Bull Shit

This was a pleasant surprise. It'#39;s quite funny and enjoyable, with intentionally corny humor and some fun martial arts scenes. As a middle aged guy, the humor around getting old and feeling your body falling apart really landed with me. Matthew Page as Carter is terrific. He plays the Tiger'#39;s less talented childhood rival who is often the butt of the joke. But he'#39;s not just a one-dimensional comic relief character, thankfully. The writing is better than that. The one part of this movie I will critique is the final enemy they have to face. Although the climactic battle scene is pretty cool, [spoiler]the bad guy is cartoonishly evil and is so overpowered that it strains belief to imagine he would lose that fight. I wish they would have developed his character more and made him more well-rounded. But instead they went with the old trope of Good defeating Evil and overcoming impossible odds.[/spoiler]

The movie’s okay but it’s not the Cobra Kai equivalent some have compared it to. Occasionally funny and I know people like it, but I struggled to engage with it.
