I Was Fooled!,
By jason (Moreno Valley, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Street Fighter (Widescreen) (DVD)
I was tricked into watching this movie, I swear. My friends told me I was going to see "Forrest Gump", but I saw this in the theaters instead. They taped me to the seat and made me watch "Street Fighter", a movie I want to forget so much. It haunts me when I see E. Honda fighting Zangief like Godzilla monsters in my dreams. I am forever haunted with Van Damme movies.

Laughing at most reviewers,
By Ali Everett (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Street Fighter (Widescreen) (DVD)
This movie ranks as one of my favourite films I have ever seen. I have watched the film over 7 times over the past month and have still enjoyed the work. Reason?People keep viewing this film as a serious VidGame-to-film adaptation. It isn't. This film has a creative license, which has it's own storyline, with a few "game" ideas thrown in. This film isn't supposed to be a serious action flick. It's a light-hearted action spoof, which is meant to entertain the humourful. I disagree with 99% of all reviews i have read all around the internet, in which to say that this movie doesn't suck. People just can't see it for what it really is - a spoof, not unlike Hot-Shots (albeit, not so obvious). Raul Julia is the best, and from what i feel, the Bison I'd imagine to be. Mad, self-opinionated, and damn sure of himself. So sure that he can still joke. People need to stop viewing this film as a straight forward VidGame-to-film adaptation. This is a film, with Street Fighter characters and a couple of Street Fighter backgrounds. I could guaruntee that if all the characters were given different names, people would be complaining that "it was a street fighter ripoff". Take my advice - give the film a go, and view it as a spoof. Something just to laugh at, and not taken seriously. Once you master that, you may begin to see why i love this film so much

Parallel Universe?,
By cousinpaco (Cincinnati, OH United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Street Fighter (Widescreen) (DVD)
The end of Raul Julia's esteemed career is startlingly similar to the late, great Orson Welles'."Street Fighter," a movie based on a toy/video game, was Mr. Julia's final film. He plays Bison, a maniacal super-villain with anti-gravity boots and delusions of godhood. Orson Welles' last appearance (at least, his voice) was "Transformers: the Movie," based on a toy/cartoon. He played Unicron, a maniacal super-villain planet (generating his own gravity) and delusions of godhood. Unicron is destroyed by the Autobot Matrix. Bison is destroyed in a fight-scene reminiscent of "the Matrix." The Autobot girl Arcee, played by Susan Blu, is hot (if you're into that sort of thing). The female Street Fighter Cammy, played by Kylie Minogue, is hot (if you're into that sort of thing). One of the Street Fighter heroes, Guile, has an annoying French-sounding accent. One of the Autobot heroes, Wheelie, is annoying (and may be French). I can watch "TF:TM" over and over again. Hmm....I guess the similarities end there.
