Synopsis:
A teenager arrives in California with his mother, only to be tormented by school bullies - until he learns to fight back with the help of a friendly Japanese handyman. Blockbusting martial arts adventure, starring an impressively self-assured Ralph Macchio, Pat Morita - who won an Oscar nomination for his performance - and Elisabeth Shue.
