Movies

This movie was terrible to put it simply. I wasn't expecting it to be great, but I wasn't expecting it to be as bad as it was. It seemed that they took a really bad, wannabe Kung-Fu movie added some Street Fighter names and thought that would good enough to pass it off as a Street Fighter movie. Horrible, almost nonexistent plot, bad acting, and terrible fight scenes make this movie not worth the time it takes to watch it. At times it was funny though, but not intentionally. When certain characters try to be serious or they throw out some line they think would be good catch phrase you can't help but laugh at how poor the acting was.

This movie obviously angered a bunch of "Street Fighter The Game" fans who all gave the movie a knee-jerk rating of 1. I won't speak to any of the SF mythology but as a stand alone movie "Chun-Li" is okay.Is it awesome? No. But it's no where near a "1" just on production quality alone. The story is basic, but that's not why you watch this kind of movie. The stunts and fighting are pretty good. I like the Kristin Kreuk seemed to do most of her own stunts. If she didn't then that's another kudos to the film makers. The music is good, as are the set and costumes.I also like to see Neal McDonough in pretty much anything he does. Moon Bloodgood was also nice to watch. I wasn't that crazy about Chris Klein or Robin Shou.

i've seen this movie last night and all i can say is that it is pure mindless fun. there are parts of the movie that you'll laugh because of the stupid and crappy lines in the film, the fight scenes are also somewhat OK in a sense that it wasn't that really dragging. the real drag in the movie is that chris klein acted really bad as nash, and nash's character was a letdown, by the way nash never died in the film. i do hope that if they make a ryu backstory, it would be better than this.street fighter: the legend of chun-li is for the fans of the game series but it would also come out as a disappointment for the gamers too.
