Critic Reviews

  • Simon Abrams, Slant Magazine

    Neither Gon nor Doctor B make cameo appearances in Tekken the movie. You do not want to see Tekken the movie.

  • Brian Orndorf, BrianOrndorf.com

    It does make a plucky attempt to replicate the flippy-floppy nature of the fighting elements, creating a limb-snapping effort of escapism surrounded by bland writing and sleepy performances.

  • Simon Miraudo, Quickflix

    The fight-sequences -- dreamlike and almost-spiritual in the original game -- are relegated to UFC-style octagons, shot like shaky-cam snuff and soundtracked by Insane Clown Posse-wannabees. It'd be headache inducing if it weren't so damn boring.

  • Clint Morris, Mediasharx

    It's not that McElroy hasn't crafted an interesting-enough storyline (in some respects, it's quite an OK plot) but more that he doesn't know how to engage his audience

  • Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed

    If fodder like "Best of the Best" is your bag, give this a shot, it's not the worst game movie ever made...

    "You will fight, the world will watch, and my legacy will be written with your blood." Tekken actually wasn't half-bad. I'm as surprised to be saying that as you probably are to be reading it. It probably helped that the bar is so low for video game adaptations,… More

    Not played the games, but I do like fighting games and martial arts films. This is ok as a film of a 1 on 1 fighting game. Reasonable budget, some good fight scenes and crazy characters. It didn't quite seem to have the polish of the recent Dead or Alive film though, which is… More

    Survival is no game. It was good to see but this movie was missing so many details, I think the director made so many mistakes in the story and I'm not even a fan of Tekken or know the story but I know this was badly made. Anyone fan of this would probably tell you this movie… More

    Wow this movie is flat-out awful beyond imagination even thow it's probably the most true to the material video game movie ever conceived but it just sucks big time. Even the charisma of Luke Goss. Gary Daniels and Ian Anthony Dale cant save the complete mess which is this film.… More
