"It was okay............." This Movie was good, the fights scenes are, in my opinion, nicely done and the story is interesting. But my only fault with this movie is that it didn't develop around any other characters besides Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Sakura. Oh well I guess since it was only 90 minutes and not a whole series that has to be forgiven. Oh and Charlie isn't in it like I'd expected and he is one my second favorite character aside from Ryu, oh well, all in all a decent movie. "a worthy continuation" "Street Fighter Alpha: the movie" is a no hold free for all filled with beautiful animation, incredible fight scenes and decent music. Where the film falls short is in a sometimes overpredictable story. The voice cast does a good job. Yet I was dissapointed that Ryu never fought Akuma in this film. Compared to "Street Fighter II: THE MOVIE" this film is quite a few steps down. Yet for those of us whom have loved the game and the anime since it arrived this is a fun film that is a worth watching. Note only diehard Street Fighter fans should buy the DVD. Anyone else woulf\d be better renting this movie. This film contain no rating yet I would rate it PG-13 for non-stop martial arts violence, and some gore. "Original and a new beginning" Fist of all if you are a die hard ryu fan it's not a mistake to buy this.. i'm pleased with it, and it's not mean to be compared with the other street fighter series.. alpha has it's own story line .. why expect bison in there ? it's a fresh attempt to define a new style of SF taken from the alpha version of the game (utilizing the art style) which must develop.. it's not an all out every sf fighter from the game in a game style tournament.. just a particular time and even in the life of ryu and ken..there is also going to be a sequel this is 1 of 2 parts .the artwork is beautiful.. the emotion is real.. if you are not a serious anime fan who gets into your films and feel the charachter's (particularly why it's suited for ryu fans)identity then u should just rent.. this is for real ryu fans ..and the movie builds the charachter of ryu.. i hope more series will follow.. it would be good to grow with ruy. "Good anime for anime fans." I personally liked this movie a lot. I know some Street Fighter fanatics will most likely be turned off by the unrelated story line and focus on only several of the characters, but despite some minor gripes - the movie was fun to watch. I'm a general anime fan, and from what I have seen, SFAlpha has some excellent animation. Character design is simple (just like the Aplha games) and the signature character moves are generally faithful to their digital counterparts. There was way more talking than I expected, but the fighting scenes were up to par with the original movie (if not better). I thought they should've focused more on the Alpha characters instead of these new people (the kid and the villan). Akuma is also severly underplayed - but nevertheless, he's hella cool looking when he's on the screen. Dan is also around for the comic relief (gettin' his rear kicked). Again, this is my opinion - but I really liked the movie and I think that the money put into the DVD was worth it. If you're an anime fan, check it out. If you're a street fighter fan... rent it before you buy it. "THE BEST ANIME MOVI EVER MADE" This is the best anime i have ever seen all the characters are perfect the story line is great. This movie is about ken and ryu. Their master mystirously died and ryu has a dark hadou inside of him and if the dark hadou takes over him he will lose his soul. Ryu and ken have 2 face akuma the master of the dark hadou. FIND OUT THE REST YOURSELF ITS A MUST SEE VIDEO U GOTTA GET IT |
