Movie Reviews of Street Fighter -- Collector's Edition

Movie Review: One of the Worst Movies Ever! Literally!
Summary: 1 Stars

The humiliating label of "worst movie ever" gets thrown around a lot, but Street Fighter truly deserves to be included in the list of worst movies ever. It's so bad, it's its own unique brand of bad. I mean, not only is it inept and stupid, it's just plain strange. From beginning to end, everything about this movie is strange, stupid and inept. Bewilderingly strange and bewilderingly stupid. A "what were they thinking?" curiousness pervades this whole movie. It's a movie that can only be tolerated in small doses it's so bad. I've never watched this movie once straight through from beginning to end. I think if I did I would end up looking like Blanka. Someone please put this film out of its misery and quite re-releasing it on DVD.

Summary of Street Fighter -- Collector's Edition

This action-packed film features great f/x directors commentary deleted scenes and more. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 01/06/2004 Starring: Jean-claude Van Damme Run time: 102 minutes Rating: Pg13
Despite remaining the subject of intense debate by fans of the Capcom video game on which it's based, the Jean-Claude Van Damme punch-em-up Street Fighter returns to DVD with an array of supplemental features, many of which may seem very familiar to anyone who's owned previous DVD releases of this title. The film itself, directed by screenwriter Steven (Die Hard) de Souza, remains an amusing camp exercise, buoyed largely by the presence of Raul Julia in his final film role as mad dictator General Bison, who holds a trio of soldiers for ransom. Coming to the rescue is a bleached-blond Van Damme and a team of fighters, including Chun-Li (Ming-Na), Sagat (Wes Studi), Cammy (Kylie Minogue) and other characters from the Street Fighter rogues' gallery. De Souza's decision to weave humor into the storyline hobbles the impact of the fight scenes, which are largely relegated to the final third of the film, and budgetary restraints render some characters--most notably Robert Mammone's Blanka--as laughable caricatures. The result is probably appalling for Street Fighter die-hards, though most audiences seem to regard it as a camp hoot. That status may account for this Extreme Edition, although the tie-in factor with the 2009 theatrical release Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li should be taken into consideration as well. Those who own the 1999 Collector's Edition DVD of this title will already have most of the extras featured here, including commentary by de Souza, a making-of featurette, outtakes, deleted scenes, storyboard and video game sequences (the latter featuring likenesses of Van Damme and Julia) and a barrage of promotional images. The only features that are new to the Extreme Edition are the sharp anamorphic transfer, which is a vast improvement over the previous release, and a trio of trailers for the Street Fighter IV game and Street Fighter IV feature-length anime. --Paul Gaita
