'Chun-Li' lacks punch, common sense

There was no press screening for "Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li" so I got in my car and made the 30-minute trek up to Westminster Promenade for their midnight showing of the movie.

I wish I just stayed in saved my $10 for something better. Here are my thoughts:
"While there are a couple of fun action sequences, the overwhelming majority of the movie is a bevy of nonsensical story progressions, awkward acting and utter pain."
Read the rest of the review on aurorasentinel.com.

I'm confused why it has a 5.6/10 rating on imdb. Horrible action, big plot holes and the simple fact that it wasn't fun to watch should have dropped this down to the 3, 3.5 range.

I came into this movie with low expectations, but I still expected to be mildly entertained. But it failed — completely.

And how do you have a "Street Fighter" flick that takes place in Thailand WITHOUT Sagat?
