I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Crappy film

brilliant actors, brilliant editing

The acting in this movie is really good.

If you love Street Fighter, this movie is for you. Raul Julia is fun in this film and gives some hilariously quotable lines... "For me, it was Tuesday..." Watch it as a 90's comedy and don't take it serious. It is a fun film.

The late, great Raul Julia plays an insane dictator named M. Bison who rules the roost in "Shadaloo", a fictional South Asian country. Currently he's holding a bunch of hostages for a staggering 20 billion dollars, and is at work on a process of turning ordinary soldiers into inhuman fighting beasts. Fortunately, he is opposed by the dedicated heroes of the "Allied Nations", led by Colonel Guile (Jean-Claude Van Damme). Other characters caught up in the melee include hustlers Ken (Damian Chapa) & Ryu (Byron Mann), and a reporter named Chun-Li (eternally gorgeous Ming-Na Wen) who can't be taken at face value.Big budget adaptation of the popular Capcom video game throws in everything but the kitchen sink for the sake of an entertaining show. Don't even bother attempting to watch it if you want to be intellectually stimulated or want anything resembling "high art". It's purely for action fans who want to be dazzled by spectacle (although not necessarily fans of the game). It's got plenty to keep it lively: hilariously tacky sets, an over the top nature, tons of explosions, vibrant widescreen photography, and some colourful characters. Subtle it ain't, but it is amusing, even if lacking the real wit one would expect from debuting director Steven E. de Souza, whose credits as a screenwriter include "48 Hrs." and "Commando". As you can see, de Souza gives it some semblance of a story, instead of just having one fight after another, which is what you might expect of a video game adaptation.The international cast features some classy thespians like Julia, Simon Callow, and Roshan Seth, in addition to familiar faces like Australian songbird Kylie Minogue, Grand L. Bush of "Die Hard", Miguel A. Nunez Jr. of "The Return of the Living Dead", and Andrew Bryniarski (Leatherface in two of the more recent "Texas Chain Saw" pictures). Ordinarily it would be depressing to watch an esteemed actor like Julia in their cinematic swan song (especially since Julia clearly looks ill), but he definitely seemed determined to go out in a blaze of glory, and he makes M. Bison a wonderfully grandiose, scenery devouring bad guy. Van Damme is good, and charismatic, as usual, but he can't help but look bland in comparison. Ms. Wen is a delight.Is this a "good" movie? This viewer is not going to go out of his way to make a case for it being one, but it's damn entertaining. Sometimes that's all that matters.Eight out of 10.

First of, this is an adaptation of the Street Fighter video games. Listen, how you make a game of two guys or gals fighting and then one die... eh? Make a storyline as you can. I think anything could work. And after seeing what they make with street fighter after this movie, and that include the mini-series with zero budget everyone is saying it's good... no it's not. This movie is by no way a masterpiece but it delivers.Why it is a success and make 100 mil at the BOX-OFFICE when it cost barely 35. The kids like it at that time, i know, i was 11 ! It was not PG or G, but it was suitable for children. I was there alone between Christmas and new year's eve. One awesome gift my father gives to me. I also had tons of action figures and vehicules that year. You know what... it's 2017 and I still have them. It was based on the GI Joe.The way they built Guile was right. He need to be strong and look good. Cammy was MILF all the way ! Chun-Li OK a reporter but when she fights, she is a beast. Bullrog, E. Honda are fun and have chemistry. Ken and Ryu are right on target ! Always see them as friends just like the Double Dragon team of Billy and Jimmy Lee.The villains are fun as hell. I remember hating so much Raul Julia because he was right on target with his Bison performance. The man deliver his last live performance before passing away and that's sad. Truly a highlight here.The only storyline I found a big boring is the one with Carlos Blanka and Dhalsim. They have chemistry, it's just that it's bland and a bit bad. Blanka should have become that huge beast and kill tons of people at the end.Andrew Bryniarski is the only Zangief i will believe. Jay Tavare was made for Vega role. Too bad there is no sequels or spin off. That man will have made a perfect Vega live film. Imagine him fighting Wolverine/Logan ! oooh ! Maybe the film has not aged too well, many complains about the change... try to make a good film out of a Street Fighter game when there is NO storyline... good luck ! Don't be too hard on theses movies, even if Mortal Kombat as a higher score.... watch Mortal Kombat 2 you will see what a true bad video game adaptation truly is. This movie, is not !

Video game movies are still more often disappointments than successes, but at least we've moved on from the era of crud like Street Fighter. Movies like this were made in such a way that they didn't appeal to the fans of the games or the casual movie audience.My primary complaint is the laughable casting. It's like the makers of the movie knew absolutely nothing about the games except for the sex, names, and races of the various characters. They make a huge effort to work the names of every character into the movie, just so the audience will (presumably) think it's cool to see their favorites on the big screen. But, Van Damme as an American soldier? Kylie Minogue as Cammy? Oh, and let's briefly mention the story. Balrog is a cameraman and Ryu and Ken (with brown hair!!) are some type of lovable con-men? Shadaloo City? Ugh. Actual street fighting wouldn't give me enough brain damage to want to ever see this again.
