Reviews for Street Fighter
Top Critic...the film has been infused with a myriad of shamelessly over-the-top elements that inevitably become quite tough to take.
05/09/09
Campy video game-derived action-fest.
03/02/09
The story of STREET FIGHTER is a mere trifle, but who cares? The real problem is that...the visceral impact is practically nil.
02/12/09
In its noisy, pointless way, Street Fighter does come close to the frenetic meandering of a video game scenario -- which is precisely the problem.
11/02/08
Far less captivating than the videogame that inspired it.

A dreary, overstuffed hodgepodge of poorly edited martial arts sequences and often unintelligible dialogue.
