Street Fighter fans are weighing in on the new live-action movie, and much like the film's Rotten Tomatoes score... the reviews are mixed at best.
The film, directed by Kitato Sakurai, initially debuted to a low score on Rotten Tomatoes, but has since climbed to 45%. The audience score is a much higher 82% (which tends to be the case for live-action video game adaptations). Street Fighter focuses on Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken (Noah Centineo) as they enter the World Warrior Tournament at the insistence of a vengeful Chun-Li (Callina Liang).
Some fans of the video game franchise, namely the ones over on the r/StreetFighter subreddit, loved it, while others left feeling neutral or unimpressed. Don't worry, we won't include any spoiler-y reactions (so you'll just have to go see it yourself).
"Movie left me more confused than excited really," one fan wrote. "No seriously, you don't just end a movie like that, an ACTION movie no less."
"I’m with you on the ending. I was like, you’re serious? It tried so hard to bait a sequel it actually stepped on the finale," someone else said.
"I genuinely enjoyed the movie; I think it did far more good than bad," said another.
"As a video game movie though, ehhhhhh you could do a lot worse," another fan concluded.
