Cobra Kai season 3 is the first major streaming hit for Netflix in 2021. With each of the 10 episodes having running time of around a half hour, it makes for a quick binge overall. Dedicated fans inhaled the show in the first weekend and craved more.
Unfortunately, Netflix carries only one other film from the original Karate Kid franchise and it’s the outlier. The Next Karate Kid was Pat Morita’s final appearance as the venerable Mr. Miyagi. The film also introduces two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank in her first lead role as Julie Pierce. However, The Next Karate Kid was a flop. Morita is the only connection to the three previous films and despite Swank’s impressive breakout performance, Julie fails to carry the chemistry that Daniel-san (Ralph Macchio) had with Miyagi.
So where on Netflix can fans get their next Karate Kid fix? How about Indonesia?

Deni Ruso (and not Daniel Larusso) is the heir of one of the richest families in Indonesia, and is pampered through birth, living in privilege and always having people handle his fights, including his fearsome uncle, Oom. After an incident in a club his girlfriend shares on Sns, his mother, Dina, sends him in a remote part of Indonesia where the group is about to build a hotel, completely without support. Deni is completely out of his depth, and things go even more out of hand when he starts flirting with Tenri, a local girl who is also involved in an activist group fighting the building of the hotel...
