Street Fighter’s bad reviews even has Uwe Boll taking shots: “Don’t ever bash my movies again”

AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication

The new Street Fighter film, directed by Kitao Sakurai, opened to mixed reactions and now holds a 45% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics describe it as an overstuffed, hyper‑edited mess that fails to deliver a coherent story, earning a 2.5‑star review from the author. The cast includes Andrew Koji, Noah Centineo, Callina Liang, Jason Momoa, 50 Cent, Cody Rhodes, and Roman Reigns. Uwe Boll, known for poorly received game adaptations, shared a negative review on Twitter, joking that his films were not as bad.

💡 Why It Matters

  • · The film’s failure underscores the volatility of the video‑game‑movie market, reminding studios that even high‑profile releases can falter.
  • · It also highlights how past failures, like Boll’s work, still resonate in contemporary discussions of genre adaptations.
