This movie is very terrible in many ways.

First off, the choice of characters is the worst possible ever for a
game movie. Chun Li is meant to be Chinese yet you've chosen an actress
who has problem speaking the language in the movie (when for example
she asks for help which she asked in a terrible accent).

Game movies are not really easy to be pulled off along with good
reviews, not many are out there. The reason is shown very clear in this
movie. The director ALWAYS misses the point of what the movie should be
about; I mean fair enough you don't want a movie about Ryu fighting Ken
or Bison, and want a Legend of Chun Li, But you could've put a better
story in it, or give the movie better actors (I can't believe the
acting in this movie). Take Marvel for example, their world interacts a
lot of different marvel characters, but when it comes to their own
movie/cartoon, they actually make the story relevant to the characters
life(e.g just because Bison was the boss, it doesn't mean that Chun
Li's life has to be revolved around killing him (which is what Ryu
does)).

The choice of camera shots used to try and show the story was also done
badly. For example when Bison was trying to show the camera that he had
a picture of his wife and daughter, which were dear to him; First off,
would Bison do this? Secondly, this is very very corny.

This movie had made me dislike street fighter. I would highly recommend
better actors and directors AND story writers if another street fighter
movie comes out.

P.S Didn't finish the movie, it was that bad.
