Such a frustrating disappointment

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Blistering performances.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Video fighting games never seem to adapt well to the big screen. In the past we've had the likes of STREET FIGHTER and MORTAL KOMBAT crash and burn and remaining totally forgotten about these days apart from all but the most die-hard action lovers. TEKKEN is another low rent addition to this sub-genre of film-making, a high intensity and noisily violent fighting film without much in the way of story or originality to bother it.The film is based on a Japanese video game and is a Japanese/US co-production. It stars the little-known Jon Foo as Jin Kazama, a poor young fighter who enters a futuristic fighting tournament in order to win glory and riches for himself. What follows is a film chock-full of hard-hitting action which is nevertheless let down by some choppy editing and poor fight choreography. You know the routine in these Hollywood films: the actors never get a real chance to show off their unadulterated skills because the editor is too busy cutting the fights with super-fast editing. It's a shame, but little surprise given director Dwight H. Little's pedigree (which includes HALLOWEEN 4).Still, if you like nondescript action with plenty of added-in special effects, TEKKEN passes the time, just about. Foo is probably the weakest link to me here; I only know him for his brief cameo in WARRIOR KING, but he seems entirely to lack gravitas and depth, even if he does look like the character he plays. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa stars as the tournament director and the ever-scary Cung Le plays one of the rival fighters. Gary Daniels is here too in a typical bad guy part although he's sorely underutilised, which is a shame because he looks fantastic. I was surprised to see Luke Goss on board given that he doesn't take part in much of the action. Lateef Crowder, also from WARRIOR KING, also has a cameo pretty much exactly the same as in that movie.

From Dwight Little, a somewhat inconsistent but generally good director, comes a brave attempt to transform a rather one-dimensional (story-wise) subject into a feature film. I remember playing all the Tekken games when I was younger - I absolutely loved the fighting mechanics, and also had an appreciation for the typically over-the-top story introductions for each character. While not expecting much from the film (there seems to be an urge to cash-in on game popularity with poor movie adaptations), I was hoping some of my favourite characters would make an appearance...but was unfortunately let down a little in this area. However, I quite enjoyed the film as a simple fighting/tournament action movie.The Tekken storyline in the games is sparse at best, but I appreciate the efforts made to tell a decent story here. It's actually more pertinent than you might think, and has an element of social commentary also (Gil Scott Heron quote included). In the future, giant corporations run the world - the biggest of which is Tekken. The story follows Jin as he struggles to make a living in the slums outside of Tekken City. He ultimately finds his way into Tekken's Iron Fist tournament on a quest for vengeance but the impact he has, alongside family feuds and quests for truth, is more than he could have ever imagined.So the story is adequately told, but most people will come for the fighting and there's plenty here. I am a little numb to fighting films these days since I watched so many when I was younger (including Little's 'Rapid Fire'), and I certainly don't believe that this film breaks new ground in this area, but it ultimately achieves what it sets out to do - entertain. There are other action pieces not involving fighting, with the film starting out well thanks to a well choreographed chase scene.With regards to the acting, Luke Goss is very good once again (see 'Blade 2' for another great performance from him); the girls are unfortunately cast a little (no pun intended) one-dimensional and lack the fluidity of the male fighters when fighting; John Foo is likable as Jin, the guy we're all cheering for; and the bad guy (Ian Anthony Dale) is suitably menacing. The other fighters in the tournament are lacking depth, but they serve their purpose. It's great to see Lateef Crowder showing his great Capoeira fighting style as Eddie Gordo - check out 'Warrior King' for better choreographed fights from him.The music is fitting for the subject matter, with plenty of rocky, aggressive tunes, and more chilled notes for the quieter parts. Ultimately nothing to write home about. Overall the sound is good, with accented blasts of sounds to match the explosive action on screen.Overall, I would recommend this for fighting fans ('Bloodsport' is a fairly good comparison), but with the omission of key Tekken fighters like Paul, King, Jack and Lei Wulong, and an absence of focus on key moves from the series that gamers know and love, I'm not sure I could recommend it to avid Tekken fans...*Note: Review is of the Blu-Ray version*

After Blood Rayne, Dead or Alive and Doom i gave up hope that the video game to movie adaptation could not be done successfully. In theory this movie should never have been watched by myself however as a long standing fan of NAMCO and the TEKKEN series i hunted high and low to find and see this movie.(i wrote a longer comment but felt so let down and despondent that i deleted it and concluding with this as my final verdict) ADVENT CHILDREN is the greatest game to movie adaptation, there is no other let us stop wasting money! Production companies should be sued for false advertising and time wasting (1hour and 24mins i will not be getting back this year!)
