No Surrender [1986]

However the plot has a more serious darker side to it aswell, the night club is run by gangsters and there are numerous incidents and references to the paramilitary organisations (although these are never actually named). Although the film seems to have two sides to it a funny and a serious dark side, I believe it is meant to be a comedy. It's the laughs that I remember.

A very enjoyable film, but don't take it too seriously.

this film is bad and not in the literal sense. corey feldman is a mean mother karate student, they steal cars and tv's and stuff. coreys in a group of bad dudes called the scorpions. they kill some little squirts brother by accident in a house burglery and make it look like a suicide by hanging the guy up on a basketball post(aided with about 50 basketballs below him?) so this little guy seeks revenge and joins the scorpions to go under cover and find out about his brothers death, along the way befriending one of the bad guys turned good, who was tony the black drummer from california dreams. thats about it apart from a death match between mako and feldman at the end and not to forget a high speed chase. this film could'nt be anymore 80's and a corey classic despite the fact it was made in the 90's. finally the same dojo from the karate kid film is used by the lions(good guys) dojo!
