Street Fighter




 I grew up with Street Fighter. I played the hell out of the SNES game. I watched anything Street Fighter I could and had all the figures. The OG film is disastrous, really nothing redeeming other than nostalgia for some. My teens and some of my 20s I would attend Marvel vs Capcom tournaments at the arcade. While Mortal Kombat has stuck with me more I will always have a spot for the fighters of the street, hell I even bought the Ultimate Warrior Blanka figure. The new film has a huge cast, a great cast, and this cast is having a blast ...as was i.....even as bad as it was. This is not a good film, it's not a bad film, it's a good Street Fighter film though. The plot is all over the place and it is full of plot holes, fights randomly break out characters disappear, it makes no sense but it felt fitting and by time the cliff hanger ending happened, I wanted a sequel. This is a visual film with an amazing albeit not time accurate soundtrack. I'll take round 2.
