This week, we review Street Fighter (1994), Steven E. de Souza's over-the-top action-adventure adaptation of the legendary arcade fighting game. Jean-Claude Van Damme stars as Colonel William F. Guile, with Raul Julia as the scenery-chewing dictator M. Bison, Kylie Minogue as Cammy, Ming-Na Wen as Chun-Li, and Byron Mann as Ryu, in a story that explores the clash between military heroism and megalomaniacal tyranny. With a warlord holding a global hostage crisis and a ragtag team of fighters racing to take him down, this film raises intriguing questions about video game adaptations, cult-classic status, and whether "so bad it's good" is a legitimate art form.

Is Street Fighter a Guile-ty pleasure or a total K.O. flop? Listen on to find out, and catch more from your favourite movie podcast and film review show, packed with honest movie reviews every week!
