Cool,I never saw that page before.

I had forgotten about the terrible (to me) Chun Li film! Chris Klein is AWFUL in a hilarious way though in this. Every single thing he says is awful! Check it out ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Id7DLq7bpTw

Good Review on the Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie Blu-Ray, but I would like to mention some things related with the review?

It is true about the profanity/nudity/violence for the film was not a problem in Japan because of the cultural differences at that time period, which is why many older Anime release where no stranger to censorship including the Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie.

The tamest version of the movie is not the PG-13 cut, but rather then the Street Fighter Anniversary Collection versions on both the PS2 and Xbox, in which it was more censored compared to the previous PG-13 version, which is rather ironic considering the Game having a T rating in which is similar to the PG-13 in the first place making the censorship rather unnecessary! But even non offensive material was cut out to fit on a 4.7 GB single layer DVD for cost reasons along with compressed FMV footage compared to other releases.

Also the version of the movie included with the Street Fighter Anniversary Collector's box for PS3/Xbox 360 Blu-Ray disc is only presented in Standard definition/has the nudity/other content edits made because it was bundled with T rated titles for the younger audiences!: https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/may ... in-nudity/

The Movie also inspired the later Street Fighter Alpha series of games along with other Street Fighter related games and Media. And the movie according to the streetfighter.wika has been said to have many elements inspired by the popular Dragon Ball franchise, namely Dragon Ball Z, which is ironic considering many can consider the Street Fighter series the best Dragon Ball Video Game ever made without the license right down with the Hadoken being similar to the Kamehameha movie in the Dragon Ball franchise.

If you want more detailed information check wikipedia/the streetfighter.wika for more info as it could help the movie review out.

There was even a PS1/Sega Saturn game based on the film as an FMV title with more info here: http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/Str ... tive_Movie

And the PS1/Sega Saturn game based on the film Animation footage that was exclusive to the movie also appears as a bonus feature just to let you know, more info in the review here along with other things that can be added in the review for usfulness!: http://www.thebigmoviehouse.com/2016/11 ... e-blu.html
