 "THE HELL! WHERE IS SAGAT"THE STREET FIGHTER ALPHA IS PRETTY COOL,BECAUSE IT EXPLORES THE DARK SIDE OF OUR HERO RYU.MY FRIEND RONNIE WOULD GIVE THIS MOVIE 5 STARS BUT I WOULD GIVE IT 4,IT MAY HAVE HAD COOL FIGHTING SCENES BUT THEY WERE REALLY SHORT.FOR EXAMPLE THE FIGHTING SCENE WITH VEGA AND DAN,I KNOW NO ONE WANTS TO SEE DAN,BUT COME ON WE WANT TO SEE VEGA, AND WHERE WAS SAGAT WE HEARD HIM BEING MENTIONED BUT WE NEVER SEE HIM.  "Don't buy!!! It's atrocious!!!"I cannot believe I purchased this excuse for an anime. It's terrible with little to no fight sequences and a horrid storyline. The role Akuma plays is nonexistant and I cannot believe people enjoy this drivel. If you want a Street Fighter anime that will keep you interested go buy Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie. That is a bit shallow on plot but at least it's interesting to watch. Other movies to consider are Ghost in the Shell (a classic), Ninja Scroll, Dark City, and if you're big into fantasy and swords try the Record of the Lodoss Wars. BUT DON'T BUY THIS!!!  "OK BUT NOT GREAT"The movie was not what I expected. Needed more action scenes with Akuma and more Arcade storyline and not someone who is out to steal data. Overall it was okay.  "The perfect Street Fighter movie....period !"Street Fighter has been known as one of the bestselling games for multiple systems and one of the most played in the arcades. Years ago, people were so into Street Fighter, they had to make movies based on Street Fighter (Street Fighter the Movie was a disappointment. It didn't follow Capcom's original story) and a Street Fighter animated series on the USA Network (it got cancelled a long time ago). Only two SF movies proved to be the best ones ever created. Street Fighter II: The Animated movie and Street Fighter Alpha. Even the Street Fighter II V series came out great. Street Fighter Alpha tells us about the beginning when Ryu and Ken were still younger. Mainly it revolves around Ryu since he is affected by an evil spell known as the Dark Hadou. Akuma has been swallowed up completely swallowed up by the Dark Hadou a long time ago. Ryu is just about the only one who can stop it all. In this movie, Ryu is paired up with Ken, Chun Li, and Shun his long lost brother to attend a Street Fighting tournament held by the twisted Professor Sadler (never heard of him !). There, Ryu will do everything to break free from the Dark Hadou. In this awesome anime movie, you will experience great animation, tons of surprises, and familiar and new characters and enemies. The only known flaws on this movie are some character animations and worse, the story. Dan Hibiki's head is a bit smaller than his whole body, Akuma looks too buff, and Chun-Li is not wearing her blue suit from the Alpha series. The story is great, but somehow its not really based on Capcom's original story. Some basic SF Alpha elements are placed on this movie to make it sound more like the game's story. Still, even with those flaws, I highly reccomend this anime movie to all Street Fighter fans. You'll definently want to add this to your anime DVD collection. "The best anime ever"The only thing i can say about this movie is thet it was great, and if you are thinking about buying it , don,t listen to rewiews that have 1,2, or 3 stars , because that,s not true and if you buy this movie will not regret it , i know i did,nt. |
