movie review - Street Fighter II

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 1997.02.04

I suspect that you have to be a fan of the game to get this film. It takes the characters from the game and wraps them in a simple plot of good vs. evil. Middling animation.

Not recommended.

Satire is tragedy plus time. You give it enough time, the public, the reviewers will allow you to satirize it. Which is rather ridiculous, when you think about it.
