Of all the crappy video game but now its a movie movies I dragged my poor mother to in the 90s Street Fighter was the best. I know that is a fairly fluid definition when you are up agianst Double Dragon and Super Mario brothers but the spirited performance by Raul Julia is what saves it. Not going to win any awards surely but the film is at least watchable because of General Bison.

There is a 1993 Hong Kong film called City Hunter with Jackie Chan in the lead role and a whole sequence in it is Street Fighter II characters becuase Chan gets electrocuted and thinks he sees all these people in real life and the fight ends with him as Chun-Li.

It's....certifiably insane.

Enjoy!

Now I didn't play the game at all but after all the bashing I had read I was surprised how much I liked Street Fighter, it knows not to take itself seriously and there are worse Van Damme movies, even at that time
