Karate Kid Part 3 was horrible.
And I really liked the remake. I'm surprised by how much I liked it. It had heart, great acting performances, and surprisingly excellent action.
As for which one I liked the most, I liked Part II the most. It upped the ante and I just love that final fight between Daniel and Chozen. Daniel went from fighting in a karate tournament in the first one to fighting for his life in the second.
The third one make him look like such a wimp. How do you survive a deathmatch and then go back and get embarrassed for all but the final 2 minutes of the movie? S**t, if it was Daniel from the end of Karate Kid part II he would have whipped that kid in the first scene he saw him.
Also, Ralph Macchio was incredibly pudgy looking in the third one.
