Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: When Ryu is looking around in Bison's fortress, Vega cuts at Ryu with his claw and makes three bloody scratches on the left side of his stomach. However, the blood doesn't drip from the cuts on Ryu's stomach and there is no blood is on Vega's claws after the cut.

Quotes:

Bison: [to the hostages] Your masters at the A.N. call me a wild beast. So be it! You do not deserve the martial dignity of a firing squad! No! You shall be killed BY a wild beast, a beast BORN of my own genius! Raise the incubation chamber!

Bleh!

Alright, when I first saw the trailers as a kid, I was expecting a good movie, I've played the old SNES Street Fighter games, and thought it would be great to see a movie based on the game. But instead I get this, it didn't seem to have the feel of the game, but I was a kid back then, I watched it. Man, this is another one, a game to movie that didn't work, just like that Super Mario Bros. movie. It was a mistake to put Van Damme in it, it probably was embarrassing for him to be in this. Maybe we're better off playing the game instead, because this, this is just plain awful. Avoid this at all cost. This deserves this quote from the game. YOU LOSE
