So where is this high school, Sparta? Nuremberg in the '30s? Italy under Mussolini? No, actually it's in nice liberal Boston, where such a thing wouldn't be tolerated for more than a second. It seems that the school in which poor Julie is isolated is dominated by a para-fascist group called the Alpha-Elite, under the leadership of a right-wing ex-soldier (Michael Ironsides) who counsels his followers to "destroy the enemy when he is weakest" and practices full-contact, padless karate exercises in the schoolyard, that is, when he's not bristling with crude bigotry and sexism. What, am I a fool? Did I think this was a real movie and not "The Next Karate Kid"? And soon enough, "The Next Karate Kid" had yielded to the melodramatic impulse and turned to junk. Noriyuki "Pat" Morita always brings a restrained dignity to this role and he never calls anyone "Grasshopper." Swank is a reasonably talented young actress, and her bitter rebelliousness is nicely felt and projected. Now I'm thinking: This looks like it might be OK.
