Plot summary

The Oscar nominated actor best known for his role of Mr. Miyagi, left behind a painfully revealing autobiographical record of his much-too-brief time here on earth. Tracing his journey from being bed bound as a boy to the bright lights and discrimination in Hollywood. Deep inside that sweet, generous, multi-talented performer seethed an army of demons, that even alcohol and drugs couldn't mask.

Opinions by Questionable People on One Person

More than Miyagi 2021 is a documentary about the actor who played the role of Miyagi in The Karate Kid.The documentary is an old interview with the deceased Pat Morita and a couple of people coming together to give their opinions on him. And as I watched it, I was getting a 'how much can we still profit off of this guy' vibeIf somebody disrespects your family in public, I don't care who was in the wrong, your loyalty and love is evident by who you side behind. Pat Morita's wife seemed to have moved on before his deathEvelyn Guerrero then proceeds to paint herself as the victim?There is no interview from Pat Morita's children or his 2 ex-wives (17 and 19 year old marriages). Though, I honestly can't see them on good terms with Evelyn Guerrero. Evelyn is so fake, and I'm not talking about her facePat Morita had a lot to drink about and never got a good and healthy outlet to channel his pain and regret, the people around him failed to offer him that too. That is my impression at least. Hell, after watching this, I need a drink.More than Miyagi 2021 is the video they needed to promote Pat Morita's unfinished manuscript... That will then be finished by Evelyn Guerrero?

Really well done, what an interesting guy

I think anyone who saw the Karate Kid immediately fell in love with Pat Morita. His life story is definitely something of a miracle and this movie told the story really well. The story was told unapologetically but with love.
