STREET FIGHTER: THE LEGEND OF CHUN-LI movie review

Before you start reading this review, let me just tell you in as few words as possible what I think of this movie…..IT SUCKS!!
You will have a hard time deciding who is the worst actor of them all. I personally vote for Chris Klein. He can’t act for nuts. Horrible dialogue delivery, bad facial expressions and overall had no role except to be an american man on an all- asian movie.
Anyway, it all explodes in Bangkok, where Bison (who even has a Bison art on the wall) starts taking over the crime empire killing all the crime bosses in the country (Why? and How did he get away with it?) and then goes looking for his daughter who he personally “dug” out of her mom’s stomach killing her mom in the process (Pure HOGWASH…as the britishers like to say!!) His partner-in-crime: Michael Clark Duncan (WHY would he take on a FLOP when he has been doing all those good movies??) Then he drives everyone out of a major slum district, grabbing power and land no matter what the costs to its residents (and has the government on his side……….but where will the slum dwellers go? No thinking please…..if you want to watch this movie!) Chun-Li, a kid that saw her father being kidnapped by Bison, is out to get him alongwith help from her kung fu master, Gen, who was once Bison’s partner, who now fights for the forces of good and Interpol cop Charlie Nash, who has tracked the crime boss all over the world but cannot catch him nor can he act, and finally Nash’s local partner, homicide detective Maya Sunee, who can’t act either but flirts a lot.
