Somehow the Japanese narration works well for this movie.
Kristin Kreuk is really pretty, but can she pull off kicking ass while wearing the goofy Chinese outfit? From the trailer, it looks like she doesn't even wear the outfit?

Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I was hoping to see some spinning bird kicking action from her in that outfit

As much as a fan as i am of Street Fighter, I didn't much like the live action movies. So i am in no particular hurry to see this movie. Still can't my head around the idea that the smallville chick is playing Chun-Li, she lacks the personality to play this role. She is way too wholesome and too "soft" for this role.
Will definitely watch it, but when there is a proper release and when I have time.

I'm having flashbacks of the first SF movie, it was good in a cheesy way. Not that the entire movie stunk, but there were so many debates about how they strayed a bit from the game. I like Jean Claude as an actor, but it was weird seeing him as Guile, the all American badass with his French accent (even had the flag tattoo on the arm). "who wants to go home...and who wants to go with ME!"
Anyhow here's a throwback
Hope they took some notes from this one.

I agree. I mean, would bad guys really take her seriously?Originally Posted by dragonrage
You need a cute girl who can also pull off seriousness. Kris's seriousness comes off as drama.
I have a feeling this might just be fanservice. They probably figure 'Hey, we have a hot chick in the lead. What can go wrong?'
EVERYTHING! Just came back from the cinemas... It was hideous. Some very, very, VERY bad acting, Spinning Birdshit, Liu Kang teaching Chun-Li the Kamehameha, Nash telling everyone; "Follow me!" with an surf dude pose and voice... He, the writer and the director of this movie should all be shot. Hands down this is the most horrible movie this year. I want my 7 euros back. And my lost braincells.
Now... we can click as warriors... button to button, it is the basis of all internet.

Liked it, it had 2 parts meh, 1 part somewhat dislike and 1 part really lame.
I can't actually remember the stuff that I thought was meh, but the dislike was definitly the spinning bird kick, the execution was just wrong, they should've just let that out.
The really lame part had to be vega, not only was his character completely wrong, his fight against chunners was incredibly short/lame/anti-climactic, whatever word comes to mind. I mean Vega almost destroyed chun in the anime ( such an awesome fight), and she only won because she put every single drop of willpower left in her to use. Here ......well it just plain sucked.
Other then those points ( I really have to go and remember what the meh were) I liked it >_>.
Now the real question must be asked. How were the tits? Kreuk doesn't have the assets.
Well, there were tits.. Not hers though, but from this chick. I think she'd have probably pulled off a better Chun-Li than Kreuk also.
The reason why it's lame is because Vega is that monkey-alien from Black Eyed Peas, Taboo I thought his name was...
But wait, you summed it in 4 parts; 2 parts "meh", 1 dislike and 1 lame, right? And you still say you liked the movie?

Damn, the movie was so bad, it seems to have scrambled KE's posting ability!
I'm not a big Kristin Kreuk fan, but she looked so good in the posters for this movie that I was going to rent it. Then I saw all the 1-star reviews and decided against it. Sounds like I made the right choice.

Yeh, this wasnt worth the time it took me to download it, except perhaps for the reason of being able to warn others of how truly horrendous it really is.
