Barry becomes sick of getting picked on by the bigger guys, and decides to learn karate, in hopes of one day meeting the great Chuck Norris.
Motion Picture Rating (MPAA)
Rated PG for mild violence and some language.
User review:
Aaron Norris delivers a wonderful blend of kung fu fighting, daydreams and high school angst in this underrated family film. Jonathan Brandis (who was having a banner year in ’92 with this and Ladybugs) dreams of being Chuck Norris’ ‘sidekick’ in fighting terrorists, evil dictators and various other cardboard cutouts. Why Norris you ask? Probably because they couldn’t get Stallone or Schwarzenegger. This is surprisingly watchable if you don’t let logic get in the way.
