In this bonus episode of The Red 7 Movie Cast Hemant shares his thoughts on season 1 of the hot new release Cobra Kai, a YouTube Red original series.

As a die-hard Karate Kid fan, Hemant has been looking forward to the release of this series since it was first announced. Being from Canada, where YouTube Red is unavailable, Hemant wasn’t sure if he was going to be able to watch it. But luckily episodes 1 and 2 were free to watch and the additional 8 episodes could be purchased for $2.50 each on YouTube.

He bought them all on the release day of Wednesday, May 2nd, 2018, and stayed up until 2am to binge all 10 episodes. Talk about dedication!

Other than revealing some plot points, and some vague discussion about various scenes, Hemant keeps this review spoiler free.
