Audience Reviews for Cobra Kai: Season 1

2d agoThis is my favorite season of any tv show ever. The Karate Kid also happens to be my favorite movie ever. I have nothing bad to say about this season. The story and the acting are great. It's also very funny and it has some genuinely touching moments. The character arcs for the main characters play out beautifully. Everything was very well thought out. This season is an absolute crowd pleaser.

2d agoAt first, I was not sure about this.. after all it is a 'reboot' on Netflix.. but holy smokes, this show quickly drew me in. It is far more complex than This is the Bad Guy and this is the Good Guy like in the Karate Kid movies. There is real character development and growth through out the series. Both the two male leads are complex with great facets and flaws, which makes this show compelling to watch!

2d agoAlthough it did feel like another conventional teen drama type of show at times, Johnny and Daniel's rivalry kept it interesting especially towards the end. Almost mirroring Johnny and Daniel's rivalry was Robby and Miguel's rivalry which they executed pretty well.

Jul 16, 2021In this century, we have seen a lot of sequels/reboots of beloved classics fall short or fail completely. Cobra Kai could do wrong. Set 34 years after the events of The Karate Kid, Cobra Kai reintroduces you to the badass karate and the fan favourite characters, while introducing an interesting new generations of Karate Kids, each bringing their own style to the show. William Zabka and Ralph Machhio shine in their returning roles as rivals Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence, with the pair slipping back into these characters flawlessly, particularly Zabka.

Jul 14, 2021Fantastic series. If you loved the original Karate Kid movies and are a fan of 1980's nostalgia, you'll get a kick out of Cobra Kai. With an 80's style soundtrack and riveting storylines this is worth binge watching over a rainy weekend.

Jul 10, 2021Loved all three seasons. Really looking forward to season four. So cool to see all the original characters and the cliffhangers just make you want to binge watch. Love it!

Jul 03, 2021After 30 years of the beloved ‘80s classic, 2018 brings us back the franchise the we have been longing for a long time. Cobra Kai has a top-notch script, and some idiosyncratic yet zealous characters. While the swearing does make the show much more darker than the original three, Cobra Kai still delivers what we saw in The Karate Kid.

Jun 12, 2021Yeah, everything great about this series is 100% accurate! This show is awesome! Characters are great, all the individual plots are great, it's all just great! If I had one complaint, some of the teenagers are just the stereotypical bullies or popular girls, which can be a little bit disappointing. That and how all the plots intertwine is a little Forced. However, that's really the only complaint I have. This show so far has saved Johnny (easily the worse part of the original movie), and made the two other subpar films more important (not good, but important). Please, go watch it, don't wait as long as I did to watch this surprise from 2018. Netflix TV is truly back, take that Disney+! (Don't worry I like Disney+ too, calm down)
