Okay, so I think this was actually pretty good. First, the visual design is great, A+ work across the board. The anime sections/choice also made a lot of sense and was very good. Second, I love the tone? It's campy, it's silly, it's very much about the power of friendship. Third, everyone is horny for Chun Li and I respect that a lot. M. Bison being more just generally horned up was also a great choice. Bring horndogs back to movies. Also, Chun Li gets fucked up this movie! Let people be hot, let people be horny, let hot people get disfigured, just great work in this regard. Now, the bad. The plot was too spread out, and too many threads for a 2 hour movie (though I'm glad it wasn't longer). It felt like the main plot thread wasn't resolved, while the secondary one was kinda resolved? Also, Dastmalchian didn't really pull of M. Bison. I think this is partly on him (a lack of physicality) and partly on the writing, with Bison's first scene being pretty silly, and not in the good way. It improves as the film goes on. I hope this gets the sequel this sets up but I'm not holding my breath. I think this movie is a little bit of a miss on a very big swing.
