It would certainly make for a more interesting picture, but the director When this movie came out, I was in that 11 to 14 group that Mr. Ebert mentions, and while I had seen all of the Karate Kid movies prior, I still enjoyed this one quite a bit. And it felt different enough from them to stand on it's own to me. While I can appreciate Mr. Ebert's criticisms, and agree with his general assessment of the clichéd main storyline, there is something else at work here that I think lifts this movie above that. While Barry's asthma and social awkwardness makes him sympathetic, his daydreams and fantasies becomie so real, that they feel like reality. And because of all the hardship he endures in his daily life, this type of escape is completely understandable and justified.
