"Street Fighter: The Movie" was on ITV4 last night.

It's universally accepted that the film is the worst of all time, and as far as bad videogame adaptations go it's at the top of that list, but despite this still I decided to watch it, and it was pure nostaligic fun throughout. From the double-act hilarity of Ryu & Ken, to the transformation of Blanka and with bad production and dialogue in between it really is a bad film that should never have been released. It's hardly the film you want to see if you're a fan of the series, but for complete nonsense and joy, it's a really good film, albeit one that shouldn't be taken too seriously. I mean, it's got explosions, good vs evil, humour, speedboats and fighting. That's a twelve year old's dream come true!

Like all videogame adaptations, Street Fighter: The Movie could have been good with the right production and thinking behind it, but unfortunately, like all other vg adaptations, it fails miserably. From what I hear Dead or Alive isn't much better...
