Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from a random, uncalled-for sequel to Van Damme's Street Fighter (1994), but I actually relatively enjoyed this movie.
The fight sequences were good, the acting was good enough, and overall the film worked.
Weird though, I didn't expect to see Kristen Kreuk in an action movie like this. She can really move!
And do you see that cast?! How did they get a Mortal Kombat star to appear in this?!?!
And of course actors Neal McDonough and Michael Clarke Duncan add their super-star legitimacy to the film. I wouldn't have guessed they'd appear in what I thought would be a B-quality movie sequel.
Good movie. Not the best, but better than I'd expected.
Factoid: Kristen Kreuk's trainers and choreographers didn't speak English, and mostly taught her without the aid of verbal communication. She describes that experience as "rare and wonderful" (www.girl.com.au).
