Synopsis

Based on the iconic Capcom video game, Street Fighter follows Colonel William Guile as he assembles a team of fighters to take down the megalomaniacal General M. Bison in the fictional nation of Shadaloo. The film features an all-star ensemble cast bringing beloved game characters to life, including Raul Julia delivering a memorably theatrical performance as the villainous Bison. Despite receiving largely negative reviews, it has since gained cult status and is celebrated for its campy, over-the-top entertainment value.
