“Cocaine, Chaos, and Capcom!!” - In 1995, Capcom’s smash-hit video game made the leap to the big screen, and promptly punched itself in the face... With Jean-Claude Van Damme delivering some of his most unintentionally hilarious line readings ever, and Raul Julia turning in a gloriously over-the-top farewell performance, Street Fighter became a chaotic cocktail of corporate meddling, rushed shooting schedules, and script changes, resulting in a campy, bizarre action-comedy that’s remembered less for its martial arts, and more for the sheer fact it even exists.
