One thing I love about their fight is the fact they don't confine it to one room like Guile vs bison or Ryu and Ken Vs Vega and Sagat. They start in the main room, move to the labs, pour out into a hallway, then move into the Bisonopolis room and then into another hallway. Also the way their costumes degrade as the fight goes on is a cool touch too. As if to say the off screen fighting was intense.
I just noticed Honda even got blood on his face making him look more like his videogame counterpart. One thing I love about this movie is how most of the Characters slowly change their look to become more accurate.
@@gabrielallen8256 the movie wasn't that bad but it's a classic the movie wasn't that great but it's a 90s classic. childhood memories Van Damme should have done Mortal Kombat instead.
Its technically wrong? Hawaii people native to land migrated there years ago, its possible but unlikely they had similar ancestors But let's be fair this film had Jean claude on c0ke and they paid for it
This was around the time that Akebono was racing up the ranks, so the producers wanted to tie the character to a guy who was getting a lot of attention in the real world.
If that's the one mistake you noticed in this atrocity of a movie, I envy you. Up until RUclips recommended this, I had happily pushed this film to the deepest corner of my memory and not looked back.
To this day, they tried to match as much as they could to the video game. Probably the most accurate character portrayals of any movie adaptation of any game.
This. Sawada Kenya (Captain Sawada in the movie, the character was made so late in production that they just used the actor's surname) said all his lines phonetically.
@@katherineberger6329 I just read about this yesterday. Something I wish I had known before now. I wonder how come they didn't get him for a Japanese version of the film. I also feel like they could've dubbed over his voice since he looks the part.
In Street Fighter 6, every character has an equal amount of hp… except those two and the big Italian woman Marisa who all have higher hp. So yeah, I wouldn’t want to mess with them either!
I kinda like how Honda did the head tilt in a circle thing from the game. lol Looked like 'gief was about to go into a spinning lariat after taking the slaps, but they cut away.
Zangief had a worthy opponent with E. Honda who gave him a good fight so he was disappointed when E. Honda left which is why he wanted him to come back. Not that he'd admit it at the time but he found a good friend through a worthy opponent.
@@rexrabbiteer A little known tip about making a film adaptation of Street Fighter II: It takes realistic CGI to bring freakish dudes such as *Blanka, Zangief, Dhalsim, T. Hawk, Sagat,* and *Gouki (Akuma)* to the dimension of live-action with voice actors and motion capture; Because those street fighters are way to unrealistic looking as well as being able to do unrealistic things enough to be impossible for actors alone to pull off, much like *Colossus & Juggernaut* in Deadpool 2, or *Hulk & Thanos* in Avengers - Infinity War. But all I can say about *Zangief* is he's one of the only street fighters that they actually put effort into alongside the not-so-buff *Chun Li, Balrog,* and *M. Bison* respectively.
@@battub7384 Yeah Blade to. Most modern superhero movies like that one usually involves CGI starting with another film in 1994 called The Mask, they also pulled off that character with Jim Carrey better than how Blanka came to life with Robert Mammone.
@@KEN-1991 It's difficult portrayed M. Bison (Vega). He must be the perfect final boss and go throw Ryu and Sagat (the perfect martial artists). And Raul Julia. He was a legendary actor (maybe not the best of the movie's history but a great and dedicated) and he did all can do with the script and his personal situation (he was dying like Yusaku Matsuda, Sato in Black Rain)
I watched Street Fighter 3 - 4 times in the theater as a kid. It was such an epic movie to me and Van Damme being French still symbolized what it was to be American.
Legend speaks of a rematch, which lasts 16 days and 5 hours. Amidst their battle, damages to local property exceeded $53,000,000 and rumbles of their slams could be felt several miles away.
In the original Street Fighter II, if you finish with Zangief there's a clip of him dancing with a sprite that is clearly intended to be Mikhail Gorbachev. The late 80s were a weird, weird time.
@@ubuu7 Don't miss Zangief with Dee Jay. Zangief left out Bishon's army when see dishonour among his comrades (maybe the few that believes the Bison's speech)
It would have been better if Honda had had his 100 hand slap move. And then Zangief pile-drived him. Then Chun Li could have yelled: "Honda, it's time to go." And still spinning from the pain, Honda could have said: "Sorry man. Can't play no more."
What would the horrible cast be if they made a SF2 movie today? Dwayne Johnson = Ryu Zoe Saldana = Chun Li Brad Pitt = Ken Oscar Isaac = Guile Willem Dafoe = Bison
Zoe Saldana and Dwayne Johnson i don't see that. Dwayne Johnson is better option to Guile (but i don't know Oscar Isaac) and i put Zoe Saldana like Cammy (not is bad but When you saw Saldana did a soft character? Chun Li was very childish from the beginning [There was the firsts 80s, there be to thanks that a had a woman character]) Ryu can't be giant (and is very huge in the game). He must be very muscle but medium size. Like the leader of young expendables in The Expendables III Brad Pitt is good option to be Ken (some old but it could be good) And if put that cast i go to Street Fighter Alpha. Why? Sakura Kasugano. Think of it. If Ken is older the rest same. And Ryu could be a bitter and older warrior who needs to recover the balance. I said more. Mixed Ken with Dan Hibiki (Brad Pitt shows he can do in Bullet Train) But obviously you need a Sagat (Wes Studi hadn't his best role here but he was so good for the film) In more games and cartoons he was how help Ryu to return to the right way. The problem, out of reunite that cast, is you need a very good actor to play Ryu.
echolot No lol XD. Its only in this movie. It has a different timeline where Guile is the main character. This is the Van Dam timeline, not the canoncial Street Fighter timeline.
That said, Hawaiians of Japanese descent are pretty common. Lots of Japanese folks settled there for the same reasons that everyone tries to go to Hawaii. Hawaiian Sumo Wrestlers aren't all that rare.
Also, Fei Long didn't appear in the movie because the producers thought he was too generic and for this reason they replaced him with Captain Sawada. Rumor has it that the producers didn't want to have any legal problems with the Lee family if Fei Long was included in the movie since the character was modelled after Bruce Lee.
Mrenderkid Vega didn't have enough screentime to count and was the wrong nationality, Guile was Jean Claude Van Damme so he is horrifically inaccurate to the main series Guile on principal.
I didn’t see any banishing fist, corkscrew pile drivers or any 360 lariats lol. No command grabs by any of the characters. Just the flying headbutt and 1000 hand slap. Lol
One of the worst films ever, the only actor that made me watch this a few times was Raul Julia (M.Bison), he's outstanding. But the characters weren't even accurate: Chun-li was never a reporter, she was a police officer Balrog was never a cameraman, he was a crooked boxer that worked for Shadowloo Ryu and Ken were never criminals Dhalsim was never a scientist and Charlie and Blanka are two different beings
Zangief starts the fight wearing a uniform. Then topless. Then a tank top. Then topless again. One of my favorite fight scenes ever.
One thing I love about their fight is the fact they don't confine it to one room like Guile vs bison or Ryu and Ken Vs Vega and Sagat.
They start in the main room, move to the labs, pour out into a hallway, then move into the Bisonopolis room and then into another hallway. Also the way their costumes degrade as the fight goes on is a cool touch too. As if to say the off screen fighting was intense.
That's one thing to love. One thing to hate is that there are only four (4) fights in the whole movie and this one is mainly offcreen. Worthless.
I just noticed Honda even got blood on his face making him look more like his videogame counterpart. One thing I love about this movie is how most of the Characters slowly change their look to become more accurate.
That's not blood, that's war paint.
Oddly enough, Zangief and Edmond Honda seemed like they were legitimately having fun
Yeah, if I was strong enough to go toe to toe with either zangief or honda then I would be having fun aswell
Zangief was the MOST accurate character.
But he didn't crush man's skull like sparrow's egg between thighs
Vega too
@@Nobody11111 hell yeah man Van Damme couldn't help himself.
This whole movie is 100% garbage. Absolute bullshit. The animated versions were better than this.
@@gabrielallen8256 the movie wasn't that bad but it's a classic the movie wasn't that great but it's a 90s classic. childhood memories Van Damme should have done Mortal Kombat instead.
The kaiju roars are truly priceless!
Mostly the iconic Godzilla roar.
They were fighting on a city model. :P
😂😂😂😂😂😂
In the game, Honda is Japanese but in the film he’s Hawaiian
Its technically wrong?
Hawaii people native to land migrated there years ago, its possible but unlikely they had similar ancestors
But let's be fair this film had Jean claude on c0ke and they paid for it
This was around the time that Akebono was racing up the ranks, so the producers wanted to tie the character to a guy who was getting a lot of attention in the real world.

@@Catjuggler Atrocity? I think you mean underrated work of comedic genius.
I think it because the movie using Yokozuna as reference, in WWE, they billed Yokozuna from Japan not Hawaii or Fiji.
This movie was part of my childhood 1994. Van Damme best martial arts actor.
0:59
zang kong vs hondzilla
PERFECT
Underrated
Valeu amigo, desde criança q tenho a curiosidade em saber a origem desses sons de rugido
Kkkkkkk
XD XD XD
Those Godzilla sounds killed me as a kid🤣😂
24 years later, and they still kill me. This movie was and still is awesome.
The reason I come back to this video. 😂
Fun Fact The Guy Who Plays Zangief Played Leatherface In The 2003 Remake Of Texas Chainsaw Massacre
That IS fun!
Would be more appropriate if he played Leatherback in Pacific Rim.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
Was also in Batman Returns. Never realized all three were the same guy.
and scooby doo
To this day, they tried to match as much as they could to the video game. Probably the most accurate character portrayals of any movie adaptation of any game.
fun fact: the guy at 0:52 was supposed to be Ryu but because he didnt speak english his role was reduced to a new character not from the games.
This. Sawada Kenya (Captain Sawada in the movie, the character was made so late in production that they just used the actor's surname) said all his lines phonetically.
According to Byron Mann this was the main reason him and Sawada didn’t get along on set.
Yeah he looked the part more. Too bad they didn't go with him.
Well, we gain a new character. I didn't play with Sawada (or T-Hawk or Dee Jay) but people say there are very good characters.
@@katherineberger6329 I just read about this yesterday. Something I wish I had known before now. I wonder how come they didn't get him for a Japanese version of the film. I also feel like they could've dubbed over his voice since he looks the part.
So this is why Zangief was in the Villain meeting in Wreck It Ralph
1:09 100 hand slap!
That shit was 🔥
Their whole fight scene is 🔥
When was the last time you saw two fighters that are so powerful that when they fought each other the building they were in couldn't take it?
This movie is a masterpiece
No it isn't. Stop jumping on the bandwagon of calling POS retro movies good.
@@champchamp3075 stop jumping on the bandwagon of calling fun and intentionally campy movies bad, kthnx
Street Fighter: The Animated Movie is the masterpiece.
While this movie is just two joysticks short of a six-button layout.
@@jtsleazeball2548 agreed it's a masterpiece and enjoyable to me.
It was shit mortal kombat movie was far better.
E Honda was in the Jamie Foxx show
Atmosphere! 🤣
Zangief should have been a lot taller. Other than that, the actor portrayed him quite well.
Fun fact,
The guy who played Zangeif was the same guy that played Jackson in bloodsport with Jean-Claude.
Andrew Bryniarski, the guy who plays Zangief is 6'5". Not many actors a lot taller than him.
Sagat should have been way taller as well, but he was portrayed by Wes Studi, who is 6'0". Way shorter than Sagat actually is.
@@jonpowell4246, no, it was Donald Gibb who portrayed Jackson in Bloodsport.
It's not that easy to get a 7ft man
There is no way in hell I would bother trying to fight either of those characters.

One minute they're fighting, 5 minutes later they're posing for the final shot of the movie!
Hahahaha ikr
I missed the door wasn't hold by both of them
I love that Honda’s like, “Sorry man, can’t play no more.”
Like it’s a game. 😂
Zangief had a worthy opponent with E. Honda who gave him a good fight so he was disappointed when E. Honda left which is why he wanted him to come back.
Not that he'd admit it at the time but he found a good friend through a worthy opponent.
Them falling through the floor never fails to crack me up
"Honda! Come on! Hurry!"
"Sorry man! I can't play no more!"
"Coward! Come back! Dee Jay!"
I know this movie gets a lot of hate but he actors looks like they had a good time.
Remember being pretty upset when I got a 2 week advance on my allowance to see this in the theatre when it first came out.
The sound of Godzilla fighting,,,
E. Honda was one of the only street fighters in the film who's actor bares resemblance to.
The only small difference in that he isn't Japanese.
the guy who played Zangief is spot on and moreso

This fight is the street fighter version of Godzilla vs King Kong🤣
I watched Street Fighter 3 - 4 times in the theater as a kid. It was such an epic movie to me and Van Damme being French still symbolized what it was to be American.
Fighting scenes between the two largest characters in street fighter
T. Hawk, Hugo, Abigail... Just to name a few larger than them.
@@dave9020 you forgot Birdie 40kg heavier and about inch taller than Zangief. Absolute unit
@@earms2949 Right, I haven't played Street Fighter in quite a while, so.

both guys are real life buddies both were in the movie Unnecessary Roughness on the Texas Armadillo team
When I was little I used to rewind the Godzilla part over and over 😂
The first one was a best friend hug lmao
Honda: l've been waiting for this moment my whole life
Zangief: me too.... aaaaaahhhhhhhgre
1:25 Edmond Honda: Sorry man can't be anymore
Can't you do better than that.
I wish they had more screen time when they were doing this Fight.
このシーンめちゃくちゃ好き
All this scenes makes me.cry for.the excitement so.awesome😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
E. Honda from street fighter Matoro's Legacy Ignition Warriors Part 2 Fearless of killer king metru.
A spinning piledriver would have completed the movie.
I love Hondas mannerisms in this scene 🫶
So did Zangief and Honda go down into the laboratory? I'm surprised they didn't run into Blanka and Dhalsim while they were fighting.
just throwing this out thrre Zangief isn't a bad guy all he wants is to prove wrestling is a real martial art and to bring pride to mothet Russia
No, he just wanted to be paid.
In the original Street Fighter II, if you finish with Zangief there's a clip of him dancing with a sprite that is clearly intended to be Mikhail Gorbachev.
The late 80s were a weird, weird time.
@@katherineberger6329
Yeah, the first version of the game was released months before the fall of the Soviet Union.
@@ubuu7 Don't miss Zangief with Dee Jay.
Zangief left out Bishon's army when see dishonour among his comrades (maybe the few that believes the Bison's speech)
As opposed to now? 😂
GOO! GOO! COWARD!!!
Great entrance. I love this movie 😂
E.Honda And Zangief
I guess they added in the Godzilla sounds because they are two guys fighting on a model city minus the Kaiju suits.
EYAHYOOUUUUUUUYAAAAWUUUUU That is all I heard in that whole fight between them two lol.
BEST KAIJU BATTLE
It would have been better if Honda had had his 100 hand slap move. And then Zangief pile-drived him. Then Chun Li could have yelled: "Honda, it's time to go." And still spinning from the pain, Honda could have said: "Sorry man. Can't play no more."
1:09 close enough lol
COWARD!!! COME BACK!!
E. Honda (Godzilla) vs Zangief (King Kong)
Look, Johnny, it's Godzilla!.
What would the horrible cast be if they made a SF2 movie today?
Dwayne Johnson = Ryu
Zoe Saldana = Chun Li
Brad Pitt = Ken
Oscar Isaac = Guile
Willem Dafoe = Bison
Kinda ok with Dafoe as Bison lmao.
Zoe Saldana and Dwayne Johnson i don't see that.
Dwayne Johnson is better option to Guile (but i don't know Oscar Isaac) and i put Zoe Saldana like Cammy (not is bad but When you saw Saldana did a soft character? Chun Li was very childish from the beginning [There was the firsts 80s, there be to thanks that a had a woman character])
Ryu can't be giant (and is very huge in the game). He must be very muscle but medium size. Like the leader of young expendables in The Expendables III
Brad Pitt is good option to be Ken (some old but it could be good)
And if put that cast i go to Street Fighter Alpha.
Why? Sakura Kasugano.
Think of it. If Ken is older the rest same. And Ryu could be a bitter and older warrior who needs to recover the balance.
I said more. Mixed Ken with Dan Hibiki (Brad Pitt shows he can do in Bullet Train)
But obviously you need a Sagat (Wes Studi hadn't his best role here but he was so good for the film) In more games and cartoons he was how help Ryu to return to the right way.
The problem, out of reunite that cast, is you need a very good actor to play Ryu.
Michael B. Jordan as Ken
What did Honda say at 0:13?
Sawada should have been Ryu and Byron Mann should have been Fei Long.
Anyone else feel bad for Zangief at the end? He seemed so disappointed.
1:09 Hundred hand slap
Man this E. Honda looks like Akebono!
Looks like Edgar Vivar.
The mortal kombat didn’t even have as much break aways to other arenas likes this.
Glorious
is honda supposed to be hawaiian?
echolot No lol XD. Its only in this movie. It has a different timeline where Guile is the main character. This is the Van Dam timeline, not the canoncial Street Fighter timeline.

not they are not , there are many japeneses and japaneses descent in hawaii but polynesians are their own people
hahaha
The actor who did SATO in "Karate Kid" II was Hawaiian. I didn't see a problem there. What's the problem here?
The most absurd movie ever made
If they made a movie now they could have e Honda played by rikishi fatu the Samoan pro wrestler and levan sangishii play Zangief.
Its sad to think that this is best fight scene from hole movie lol
Yes Sure Gojira😆🤦🏻♂️🐉
This movie have multiple languages?I hear Japanese and Chinese too!
E HONDAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!
0:58 Godzilla vs King Kong 🤣🤣🤣
Epic scene
おや!?途中だけ吹き替えになっているような···?
Stinky rose?
Fei Long was not in the movie because they couldn't find an actor willing to set his pants on fire.
Also, Fei Long didn't appear in the movie because the producers thought he was too generic and for this reason they replaced him with Captain Sawada. Rumor has it that the producers didn't want to have any legal problems with the Lee family if Fei Long was included in the movie since the character was modelled after Bruce Lee.
No. The real reason was that there was no way to resurrect Bruce Lee
1:05 did Russia send a kaiju bear?
Wish this film gets a remake 😀😃😄
Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist was technically a reboot

their fight are better than raiyu use gadoken and ken apparently use shoryuken
0:44 name of the actress?
The only characters the movie got right were Zangief and M.Bison.

Vega didn't have enough screentime to count and was the wrong nationality, Guile was Jean Claude Van Damme so he is horrifically inaccurate to the main series Guile on principal.

Why did they make E Honda Samoan?
How the hell did they get away with this without Toho suing them?
I'm guessing they paid to use the Godzilla roar?
Probably told them what they were gonna use it for, they laughed, signed the contract and boom it happened lol.

“ quick , change the channel”
0:43 Too bad they didn't add Captain Sawada in more Street Fighter game
Dosukoi!
Captain Fei Long Swada
I see Russia The REAL King Kong in This Bitch
One of the worst films ever, the only actor that made me watch this a few times was Raul Julia (M.Bison), he's outstanding. But the characters weren't even accurate:

Balrog was never a cameraman, he was a crooked boxer that worked for Shadowloo
Ryu and Ken were never criminals
Dhalsim was never a scientist and
Charlie and Blanka are two different beings
