The new Street Fighter hits the big screen

The new Street Fighter has arrived in cinemas, already seen as a knockout for the franchise. More than thirty years after Capcom's first adaptation, the film brings back Ryu (Andrew Koji), Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) and Chun-Li (Callina Liang) at the head of a cast that expands with David Dastmalchian (M. Bison), Jason Momoa (Blanka), 50 Cent (Balrog), Vidyut Jammwal (Dhalsim), Eric André (Don Savage) as well as wrestlers Roman Reigns (Akuma) and Cody Rhodes (Guile). It opens a few months after the box-office flop of Mortal Kombat 2. According to Écran Large, the film does better than the schlock with Jean-Claude Van Damme, but it is not a success.
