Cobra Kai - Reviews

...is an all you can eat buffet of deep cuts, callouts, world-building and karate face-offs literally decades in the making.

...an entertaining dramedy that mixes nostalgia and teen angst with an interesting meditation on the ever-shifting definition of masculinity.

...this well-written reboot of the franchise is way better than you'd expect.

I simply couldn’t stop watching.

...the show is compact if not bingeable, and its conceit alone should bring eyeballs.

This marvelous sequel series to The Karate Kid isn't just a huge suckerpunch of nostalgia for kids of the '80s. It's also a sharp, dry comedy of the kind we've come to expect these days.

This object lesson on how to make a TV spin-off from an old movie franchise is even more fun third time round, and you don’t even need to be a Karate Kid fan to enjoy it.

...a ridiculous, karate-loving delight.

...Cobra Kai has a spring in its step.

It’s all quite ridiculous and always entertaining...

Like a tornado kick to the face, Season 4 may take a while to wind up but it smacks you squarely in the teeth by the end.
