Netflix bought up rights to a huge amount of GREAT martial arts movies recently and I was blown away. I remember the days of scrolling endlessly through garbage rated movies and settling on cheesy kung fu flicks. It was hard to narrow down a top 10 but I did my best!
A peasant who wants to overthrow Japan's lord and become a killer in the name of justice learns the way of the sword and becomes a rogue samurai assassin in feudal Japan. Based on a best selling Japanese Manga, which is the equivalent to America's Marvel Comics, This exciting Action Adventure features insanely good sword battles, top notch production quality acting, and what's more... There's actually a part 2 on Netflix for you to binge watch!
This awesome late 80's martial arts classic is worth rewatching again and again. If you're a fan of old school Karate and old school movies, grab some pop corn and get ready for some crazy action as the US karate team sets off to compete against the best of the best in an international Karate competition for the honor of the world title.
Honestly, there is so much to love about this movie. It's so hard to watch due to cringe moments in the acting and the over dramatic Karate montages that piggy backed off of Karate Kid just 3 years prior. Even the film score feels hilarious now. The non ironic dad jokes and bad line dancing just make it even better.
Master Miyagi Does it again and raises a world class martial artist, but this time it's a girl, and that girl is Hilary Swank! Being a 1994 classic release, this movie hits all of my nostalgic feels and I could watch it again and again. The music stays true to the feels of the original Karate kid, even though it's just not the same without Daniel San.
A troubled teenage girl has to defend herself against bullies at her high school and stay out of trouble with the law. She has a proclivity for breaking into her high school at night to feed the class hawk, where the gang tends to hang out. The boys gang is connected to the police chief who sides with them.
In my opinion it's a bit too much drama and falls short of the mark but it's still a great classic movie worth watching again. It has some great fight scenes, and hell we get to see Hilary Swank to the crane kick and even some Nihanchi Shodan Kata.
4 Amazing martial artists doing insane Karate inside huge turtle suits and Vanilla Ice rapping while they battle? It doesn't get much better than this 1990 classic hit film. The fight scenes and comedy is out of this world. It's one of the very best movies ever made as a PG, with innuendos and adult themes, violence and a wonderful storyline about 4 baby turtles and a mutant rat that are chemically transformed into super heroes.
The most iconic cut animation of all time as the ooze turns them into what they are today, and how Splinter learned Karate. They gang skateboarding scenes underground at foot clan lair is so amazing, I want to just relive the 90's again and again.
I would watch this movie endlessly. I only wish it were longer! Great to watch with the kiddos and relive your youth while inspiring the next generation to uphold positive values and learn good life lessons.
Want to go on a mind warping altered reality fight adventure with a school girl who dons a samurai sword fighting otherworldly creatures? This movie offers incredible animation and fight scenes with blistering realism cutting between dramatic acts of a girl stuck in a 1950's mental asylum.
Jean Claude Van Dam takes Martial Arts and Kickboxing to a whole new level and this late 1997 film is no exception. As a retired counter terrorism operative, he must team up with an arms dealer and travel to Italy to rescue his kidnapped family using martial arts and a blaze of Gunfire.
300 is a legendary movie loved by millions of people globally. It follows the story of the Spartans and their struggles to overcome the Persian Army using cunning tactics and brute strength. This movie will have you on the edge of your seat the entire time, and then you'll feel like smashing things, lifting weights and screaming "This is Sparta!" for the next few weeks.
Most people have seen or heard about 300 but it's definitely worth rewatching! The fight scenes are done really well and the whole aesthetic of the movie is true to the period. It's an exciting part of history and it's magnificent.
Cobra Kai is definitely worth binge watching all 4 seasons, as it follows the unsung antagonist of the Karate Kid movie franchise through their new lives and the continuation of rivalry in Karate with Daniel San and Miyagi Do 30 set 30 years in the future.
This performance is incredible and has brought new life into Karate with Disney Star Peyton List and original actors William Zabka and Ralph Macchio among notable cameos like Martin Kove. The rivalry continues with awesome Karate fighting in each episode leading up to the All Valley Karate tournament again.
This was an insane work of art and possibly the best performance we've seen from Legendary actor Tom Cruise. Between the emotional war montages and sword fighting to the award winning acting, we feel and believe in the story and learn to love the characters.
The acting and score bring this to the number one spot on our list of movies to watch. If you haven't seen the Last Samurai, it's a timeless masterpiece in cinema history that follows an American soldier who must adapt to life in feudal Japan.
The ending will have you crying as you will have cheered on the success of the beloved samurai. Theres so many emotions in this film with huge period appropriate scenes that treat this story as a history lesson.

Cobra Kai is an American martial arts comedy-drama television series and a sequel to the original The Karate Kid films created by Robert Mark Kamen.[1] The series was created by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg, and is distributed by Sony Pictures Television. The series was released on YouTube Red / YouTube Premium for the first two seasons, before moving to Netflix starting with the third. The series stars Ralph Macchio and William Zabka, who reprise their roles as Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence, respectively, from the 1984 film The Karate Kid and its sequels, The Karate Kid Part II (1986) and The Karate Kid Part III (1989).
The first and second seasons launched on YouTube Red/Premium in May 2018 and April 2019. Netflix acquired the series in June 2020 after YouTube decided to stop producing scripted original programming. The third, fourth and fifth seasons were released in January 2021, December 2021, and September 2022, respectively. Production for the final season stopped during the period of the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike and 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, and resumed after January 1, 2024.[2] Season 6 will have 15 episodes, and will appear in three parts on July 18, November 15, and on an unspecified date in 2025.[3]
Cobra Kai re-examines the Karate Kid narrative from Johnny's point of view, beginning with his decision to reopen the Cobra Kai karate dojo, and the rekindling of his old rivalry with Daniel.[4] The series also stars Courtney Henggeler, Xolo Mariduea, Tanner Buchanan, Mary Mouser, Jacob Bertrand, Gianni DeCenzo, Peyton List, Vanessa Rubio and Dallas Dupree Young, with Martin Kove, Yuji Okumoto, Thomas Ian Griffith, and Sean Kanan also reprising their roles from the films. The series takes place between 2017 and 2020.[5][6]
Cobra Kai has attained high viewership on both YouTube and Netflix, and has received critical acclaim for its writing, performances, action sequences, humor, character development, and faithfulness to the previous films. It has received numerous awards and nominations, with the third season being nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series at the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards.
Thirty-four years after being defeated by Daniel LaRusso in the 1984 All-Valley Karate Tournament, Johnny Lawrence, now in his 50s, suffers from alcoholism and depression. He works as a part-time handyman, and lives in an apartment in Reseda, Los Angeles, having fallen far from the wealthy lifestyle in Encino that he had been accustomed to growing up. He has an estranged son named Robby from a previous relationship, whom he has abandoned. In contrast, Daniel is now the owner of a highly successful car dealership chain, and is married to co-owner Amanda with whom he has two children: Samantha and Anthony. Daniel is finally living the wealthy lifestyle he envied as a kid when he and his mother Lucille lived in Reseda. However, after his friend and mentor Mr. Miyagi died, Daniel's struggle to meaningfully connect with his children has disrupted the balance in his life.
