I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

... View MoreYesterday I saw "Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist" on DVD with my wife and two friends and two of us have taken a nap along the movie. We all find it very boring with tedious story and screenplay. There are two parallel similar stories of Ken, Riy and their master Gôken in the present days and young Gôken, Gôki and their master Gôtetsu in the 50's while learning to fight "Ansatsuken" with different conclusions.Reading IMDb Ihave just found that "Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist" is indeed a TV Mini- Series. Based on the IMDb User Rating, it seems that out opinion it might be based on a problem with the compilation. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Street Fighter: Punho Assassino" ("Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist")
... View MoreI liked the game. I had good memories of the game. This movie however has ruined the cognitive object in my mind that is Street Fighter, and destroyed it forever. I can't believe the number of people here giving this disaster any form of positive review. It went on and on and on. I felt like I had been sucked into a vortex where time no longer had any meaning. I feel like I have literally been trolled by the creators of this movie, for 2 and a half hours. It wasn't immediately obvious that this was the case. It sucks you in and holds and then disappoints you beyond belief. The punchline however was when the credits finally come up and you are left thinking "what in the actual *expletive removed*!".Where was the ending? What happened to the big bad guy in the mountain? Wasn't the first 2 hours all about the inevitable fight with his brother? Why was the ending the two students going on holiday ? It's like the writers are saying "HAHAHAHA NOW YOU HAVE TO WATCH THE SEQUEL".Not me. Not this critic. I would rather battle with registration on this website, laboriously fathom the changing of my display name to Ghey Ken, and pontificate for the next hour, than waste another moment of my life being trolled by Hollywood.Furthermore, where the hell was Chun Lee ? What's the point of making a Street Figther movie if you aren't going to have the spinning bird kick. It would have been more realistic also, if the movie had stopped half way through and pretended to crash, tricking me into taking the disc out and blowing on it a few times.In conclusion, this movie is a joke. They are trolling you especially when u pay for it. Don't let them ruin your childhood memories by tricking you into watching this junk. Ken was cool. This guy needs his mommy and a hair brush. And as for balls of magic Chi whizzing thought the air, it worked better in the game. I almost turned it off the first time it happened in the movie. I wish had.Trust me, this review is far better than the movie. Thank you for reading it to the end, but save yourselves. Don't make the same mistake with this movie.
... View MoreI never thought the trailers were serious. Well I didn't think that could be an actual movie. And yet I serendipitously watched this series today, and I can assure you that this is a great series.Possibly the best adaptation that I have seen so far ! The art, the technique, the philosophy, the cast, the story, everything came out perfectly. It evens surpasses the fan's expectations.The series begins slowly, we don't care about the introduction of the character, and fine, because there is none. The martial art approach was well thought out. From climax to final battle I was glued on my seat watching this.This series is so good, there is no word to explain it further, just watch and enjoy!
... View MoreI am 36 years old, since the age of 8 or 9 years old I love Street Fighter. I'm good at playing Street Fighter in my town ding dong. I also love martial arts and studied several martial arts. I thank you finally someone who can make a story in a comic martial arts into a great movie once without losing any detail. It is a video game that lifted the film to the best movies I've ever seen. Thank you for making the film as good as this, hopefully in the future will be a lot of people who can make a film that is the origin story of the video game to a movie as good as this movie. Once again thank you. Greetings from Indonesia.
