The film the Karate kid is about a boy named Daniel Larusso and his mother moved from new jersey to California because they wanted a fresh start but when they got there things changed. Daniel meets a girl named Ali and they hit it off but there are some complications including her ex boyfriend . Daniel starts to get bullied by them when Alis ex boyfriend sees Daniel and Ali together on the beach at a party that Freddy Fernandez invites him to until it goes sideways . Daniel decides to try and fight back but fails and meets a man called Mr Miyagi and Daniel goes to see him everyday but Mr Miyagi is secretly showing him how to defend himself through the chores that he gives him to do and enters into a tournament and fights the Cobra Kai boys that have been bullying him but in the end he wins the entire tournament with a broken leg and takes home the trophy
My favourite character is Mr Miyagi because he tries to help Daniel to defend himself so that he doesn't get hurt and chased down by Johnny and the Cobra Kai gang . also so he can defend himself in the near future . Mr Miyagi also becomes a father figure to Daniel Larusso and has placed himself in the place were Daniel can go to him and help him with the things he needs .Mr Miyagi also encourages Daniel to go and see Ail and help him with his girl problems.
An event which shocked/surprised/horrified/made me laugh was
The scene that shocked me was a part in the torment when Daniel was fighting a member of the Cobra Kai. Just a few minutes earlier to the fight the Sensei of the Cobra Kai boys told the boy who was fighting Daneil Larusso to put him out of the game but he said to the sensei but ill get disqualified but the sensei still tells him to do it because he was playing dirty and had doubts about Johnny facing Daniel because of all the other opponents that Daniel had beaten which got him on the leaderboard and stepped up his game in the tournament which made sensei a little scared and worried to put Johnny up against Daniel in the final fight
I'd recommend this text to other teenagers because it was really enjoyable and i though it was a really good movie that i would recommend to other teenagers it was really fun and enjoyable to watch and pleased our crowd we all thought it was a good movie to just watch in general and would not mind watching it again for film studies
We have also been learning about different film terms and techniques. For example long shots that can be taken to show the whole body and the full frame another shot being mid shot and this shot can be taken from the waist up . close up shots cans be used to show the characters emotions in the face or to make the audience feel more involved with the character, help them understand what the character is thinking or feeling.
