The evil warlord General M. Bison and his troops have kidnapped Allied Nations relief workers along with three U.N soldiers that were assigned to protect them. M. Bison demands that the United Nations pay him ransom money in exchange for the hostages, where M. Bison has given the United Nations 3 days and he threatens to kill the hostages if the United Nations fails to pay the ransom. Learning his best friend, Carlos "Charlie" Blanka is one of the hostages, U.N military commanding officer Colonel William F. Guile leads his army of troops against M. Bison. But Guile isn't the only man after M. Bison. Guile sends low-life martial artists Ryu and Ken Masters to infiltrate M. Bilson's one-eyed arms dealer Victor Sagat and his masked Spanish cage fighter Vega and discover the location of M. Bison's jungle fortress. News journalist Chun-Li Zang and her crew, former boxer Balrog and former sumo-wrestler Edmond Honda are out to settle their scores with M. Bison. M. Bison's unwilling chief scientist Dr. Dhalsim is transforming Blanka into a genetic mutated super soldier, in M. Bison's goal for world domination. Joined by martial artists and fighters from around the world, Guile and his troops engage in combat as they set out to defeat the evil warlord and rescue the hostages from his jungle fortress, before the 72 hours up, as Guile and M. Bison faces off in the ultimate showdown. Col. Guile and various other martial arts heroes fight against the tyranny of Dictator M. Bison and his cohorts. when this was first coming out i was really excited because i (also my dad) was a big fan of the street fighter game and the advert for the cinema was revealing it was a 12 i was upset (mind you i was 9)but i finally rented it on video. after the film was over i felt somewhat cheated i mean this film was crap bad special fx,bad acting (apart from Raul Julia).but what got me was the most was since when has guile been the hero of street fighter i always thought it was Ryu or Ken also i was disappointed at Dahlsim cause on the game he is a witch doctor but on this he's a god damn scientist (since when) also he didnt do his stretch attack which he is best known for. But one good thing i can say about this film is that some of the characters where close to the game i.e Vega. If you have to watch a film based on a game watch mortal kombat or if you want to see a street fighter film watch the manga version that is a good take off of the game. Out of 10 = 2 I agree with everyone that said this movie is good for street fighter fans. I simply LOVE street fighter the game, and the reason you should see the movie is for the CASTING. the characters are so fun to watch because they look exactly like the people in the game.<br/><br/> But then again, I also liked AI.
