Reviews
"...STREET FIGHTER has great in-built playability, and the cast and film-makers play it for all its worth, keeping the tone right on the cusp between straight-faced shoot-'em-up and self-parodying kitsch..." (Sight and Sound)
"...STREET FIGHTER does have a sense of humor about itself..." (Chicago Sun-Times)
