Check out this freeper IMDB reviewer - what a freak!

Basically I realized something very simple - anyone that rates the "Streetfighter" film highly is a freak.


A few gems from his "reviews":

--------------------------------------------------------------------
"I don't like when people have unilateral opinion that "Street Fighter" movie is bad.

I saw it when I was 15 yers old, and I absolutley loved it; why is everyone so critical of acting and plot. Did the game had plot at all? I agree that it is certainly not the type of film for movie goers or amture audience; but it is descent for the fans of the game.

I mean late Raul Julia takes excellently on the role of the game villain Mr.Bison, who kills A.N. soldeirs; van Damme is adequate in his depiction of Guile; other notable performances are Miguel A. Núñez Jr. (he is actually funny in every scene), Wes Studi (i had him pictured for the role of Saggat before movie came out), and Andrew Bryniarski as Zangieff. And you got to appreciate Roshan Seth as Dalsim.

I mean, its just a game, and the movie was good treat for game fans, it even produced a game based on the movie; yes the plot is kind of silly especially when it comes to "tragedy" of Blanca turning into beast and van Damme's stealth boat - so what - good action, nice comedy, nostalgic for game fans - don't like it - dont watch it"


On "The House of Sand and Fog":
" a decadent, corrupt, promiscuous, moral-less seductress ruins lives of people crossing their paths with her - representing none other then American nation; and immigrants in this movie are of course Iranian - of all other Muslim nations, director had to choose this Axis of Evil nation aspiring to build nuclear arsenal as we speak; I am sorry, after 9/11 and Beslan School Massacre - I just have no more sympathy for so-called "compassionate Muslims". Ultra-Liberal, anti-American message of this movie is vile piece of implied propaganda; oh and this depressing in misleading take on false illusion of American Dream can only originate from non-American (it just so happens the director is latter) elements. I apologize if these views offend some of you liberal readers out there - but this is heads up for concerned citizens of United States - avoid this depressing peace of cinematography decay."

"F 9/11":

"he leftist political context of the movie overshadows any credibility of facts it might have; Michael Moore is a typical narrow-minded liberal who doesn't seem to understand that anti-American terrorists and regimes don't distinguish between republicans or democrats, neither do they distinguish between who is a president - that was proven on 9/11/2001 - all the terrorists want to do is kill us all. So engaging in anti-governmental propaganda as such in the time of today's turmoil is treason - treason of America - and anyone who watches or endorses this movie is a traitor of USA. Fictitious fabrications, cheesy montages, and fake interviews should make any normal person sick and filled with anger this "documentary""

The Godfather:

"I didnt grow up in the 70s, and I understand that every movie belongs to its generation. After watching this movie, although I cant say I didn't enjoy it, I am far from considering it best movie ever; and certainly it is absolutely preposterous to make it #1 here.

First of all - this movie is not for everyone, it contains subject matter and scenes suitable for rather limited (specific) audiences

Second - although glorification of crime in recent years, especially by rap artists, became a trend - I don't think that values of this movie is exactly "politically correct" – making this movie `best of all times' is equivalent to canonizing John Gotti – RIDICULOUS

Third - as mentioned above, this movie is just too vintage, it is not, how some people here imply - "immortal" - it is rather thematic and I would say monotone to the era it was made in"

1. Godfather > Street Fighter
It disturbs me that this person is my age (roughly).
