m_roberts_07 I had a blast watching this movie. Yes, it's cheesy action from the 80's...but you know what? It is martial arts orientated so the movie fits into my criteria of what I grew up with and love. I just had to put in a review because the only reviewer here bags this movie with unnecessary intentions. If you like your karate/martial arts 80's movies without all this CGI bullshit then this is for you.Without spoiling - My favorite scene is when the angry student attacks his teacher on the street trying to land a punch or kick, but miserably fails to do so. There are some entertaining features here. Don't take the movie so seriously and you'll get some enjoyment out of Karate Wars.

Seymour Asses Even for a low budget straight to video release this movie is terrible. Karate Wars gives a new meaning to the words "low budget." All the scenes are shot in very isolated people, with almost no extras. Hell, the gymnasium looks like a bedroom in someone's house!The plot of Karate Wars is simple and cliche'd. Not even worth explaining really. At the end the two karate groups involved are supposed to do battle at the upcoming tournament, but the tournament gets canceled, so they fight in a gym somewhere. My guess is the tournament was canceled because it would have cost alot of money fill an auditorium with people. Way more money than was spent on this piece of garbage.This movie is boring and stupid. I paid $1.99 for it and I consider it a waste of money.
