Review of Cobra Kai

Cobra Kai (2018–2025)
10/10
Brings me back ...
12 January 2022
I thoroughly enjoy watching Cobra Kai. As someone who grew up watching the original Karate Kid movies, this has been a pleasant treat. Of course, I hated Johnny Lawrence back in the day. He was a typical bully. I rooted for Daniel-Son. With that said, I absolutely love the shows take on it. Daniel grows up to be a very successful businessman, while Johnny is a screwup. It seems like justice, but you start really feeling sorry for Johnny. You see the original story through someone else's eyes. I found myself cheering for Johnny. It is much more entertaining to watch Johnny Lawrence as an adult than Daniel LaRusso.

The series is 100% cheesy, but quite enjoyable. So many actors came back for cameos throughout. It is such a treat. We got to love that 80s music too.

I have been watching it wife my wife and 12 year old. Even though my daughter doesn't know the original story, she loves the show.

Enjoy.
