Dunno. Watched it online. Wiki says: "The film was screened at the Mann's Criterion Theatre in Santa Monica on November 5, 2009, as part of the AFM Film Festival in order to find a solid distributor. It was released in Japan on March 20, 2010 through Warner Bros. Pictures (Japan). The film also premiered on July 27, 2010 in Singapore and August 4, 2010 in the Philippines. One week prior to the Philippine premiere, Jon Foo visited Manila to promote the film. The film will hit United States theaters in 2011 through Anchor Bay Films."

I've seen it...was ok I s'pose but not as good as a tekken movie could have been

are you talking about the, Tekken movie? I only ask because if you are we must have been watching two different movies. The fight scenes were garbage. 😂 Everything about this movie was god awful but thats why it's so good. It's not quite as cheesy as Street Fighter, but it's still a cheesy turd worth sniffing. I liked how they made Jin a whiny, borderline teenager because that's definitely being faithful to how Jin was portrayed in the games 😆 If you have some drugs or a group of friends this is a fun movie to watch to make fun of.

What exactly didn't you like about the fight? No flashy lights? 😕 h2h, acrobatics, + UFC style wrestling and grabs. Doesnt get better than that.

I liked the fight scenes too. Sure there were issues with it, but it wasn't a turd or anything like that.

How were the other characters? King? Paul Phoenix? Nina Willams?

I just want to see Lateef Crowder as Eddy Gordo. Dude has some serious Capoeira skills.

Doubtful he looks any better than he did in The Protector. He looked badass.

I know, but this is from a VG fanboy perspective.

For something like, Tekken, i expected something more than stock choreography.

Yeah I know, loosen up a bit.

"'Tekken' has a great storyline. Hopefully it won't be changed."

You said Tekken, that is a cool storyline. I really love it too.

🍺 I seen this last night,pretty average but what can you really expect from a movie based on a beat em up game, The fights were ok,nothing too flash though,Too much shooting,not enough fighting in my opinion,I were disappointed that ''King'' Was left out of the movie,I would of liked to have seen him.All in all 5.5/10

Had a look at the plot for this movie

"In the year 2039, after World Wars have destroyed much of civilization as we know it, territories are no longer run by governments, but by corporations"

da ****??

as usual with this video game to movie adaption change the plot.

Its true. I watched it a while back.

Spoiler:

No Paul Phoenix in it either. 🙁
Law wasn't especially convincing resemblance wise.
No Gon. No Boschonavich. The Jacks are just regular humanoid fodder.
Jack is a rank in it.

Overall I'd give it 6 out of ten as a movie.
4 out of ten for a Tekken movie.
