(1979) The Street Fighter's Last Revenge
DUBBED
MARTIAL ARTS ACTION
Third and final film of "The Street Fighter" movies starring karate actor Sonny Chiba as Terry retrieving a cassette tape involving the formula for heroin. It is then Terry gets double crossed by the people who hired him. He of course becomes motivated to retrieve the tape back from the people who double cross him but have to face obstacles such as a martial artist from Mexico and a corrupt DA who seems to be a better martial artist then him since he learned some of his techniques was derived from Korea. More bone cracklings and nudity than the first two installments as well the fights are slightly better even though it still looks fake in comparison to what we can get these days but it's still better than most Hong Kong chop sockey movies made in the 70's.

Japan had its Bruce Lee craze just like everywhere else in the early seventies and Sonny Chiba was their answer to Bruce Lee. Along with the vicious action scenes there were some typically Japanese acts of misogyny which seem pretty bizarre to Western audiences when it's the "hero" doing it (When was the last time you saw Chuck Norris or Jackie Chan sell a woman off to a slave ring because she couldn't afford to pay for getting her brother out of jail?). STREET FIGHTER'S LAST REVENGE is somewhat tamer than the first entries into the series. This time around Chiba is more of a James Bond kinda character, donning rubber masks and vampire fangs(!) and is mixed up in a plot involving cassettes with top secret information. There's also some Gong Show-type freak (Who you see a lot of on Japanese TV) who can break chains (He actually uses a laser) who's heard to kill Chiba (Yeah, right!). Along with the awful dubbing there's also the same black and white footage where Chiba, as a kid, sees his father executed to the Chinese which turns up in all the STREET FIGHTER movies.
Well to be fair, matters do at least get off to a cracking start in this, the final chapter in this infamous series of flicks. Sadly however, it has to be said that what follows is tedious at best and moronic at worst.
Fans of the violent excesses that these flicks are most notorious for will be in for a major disappointment here as the said scenes have been well nigh omitted entirely with our hero (the incomparable Sonny Chiba) adopting more of a subtle approach to matters. In fact, our protagonist is now shown adopting multiple disguises in order to accomplice his nefarious ends (a far cry from his head on brutality as displayed in the first two films!)
Easily the least of the series, there's really very little to recommend here other than the rather cool final fight between Chiba and his nemesis (in other words just fast forward to the end)
Overall then, this proves to be a somewhat sad way to end the series. Oh well, one can always re-watch the first two over again I suppose ..

If you love THE STREET FIGHTER (and you probably do if you looked up this entry) don't even bother with this final entry in the series. This one sucks out loud, and has only one decent fight scene which lasts for about a minute. Our hero now has taken on a more "MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE"-type persona since he now is a master of disguise (???). Skip this.
Takuma Tsurugi (Sonny Chiba) (AKA: The Street Fighter"), rather like James Bond, is an assassin for hire, a man who is a master of disguise and the martial arts but don't cross or betray him because if you do, you will pay and pay dearly. He, again rather like James Bond, has a weakness for playing with dangerous women, particularly the most ruthless and cutthroat. Here the villains, who have hired Tsurugi to get two tape cassette recordings that when played in unison provide a formula for creating synthetic heroin potentially worth a fortune in the wrong hands, make that most fatal mistake of crossing Tsurugi. And now they will pay!
This moves at a brisk pace, is exciting and action-packed, and feels like a much darker take on a James Bond type of film. It's not really all that much like the previous "Street Fighter" fare at all but it is fun if you're willing to forgive that fact. The only problem I had with the film was all the betrayals and double-dealings became confusing after a time and I was surprised Tsurugi allowed himself to be put into a position where he could be betrayed by the lead villains on more than one occasion. Also Tsurugi is hardly an heroic male lead, in fact he's every bit as ruthless and unrelenting, if not even more so, that this story's villains. Still the good in terms of entertainment value here I feel far outweighs the bad.

- Versiones alternativasUnlike the previous two Street Fighter films, The Street Fighter's Last Revenge has only been available in America in a cut R-rated version. While the overall uncensored film isn't as violent as the first two films in the series, several segments of violence had to be removed to obtain an R-rating as opposed to an X: -A shot where Tsurugi attacks a mobster, causing him to spit out bile (presumably), and telling him he has only an hour to live -In the shot where Tsurugi crushes Go Owada's neck with his foot, the shot is prolonged in the uncut Japanese version. Tsurugi crushes down further on his neck, plus the shot of the dying Owada's face is longer and is more revealing to the fact that his head is nearly detached. -Near the end of the film when Kunigami ridge-hand chops Seigen Owada in the head, the reaction is longer, showing a stream of blood flowing from his head wound -When Tsurugi defeats Kunigami in the finale, the shot is extended in two segments. The first segment shows blood leaking onto Tsurugi from Kunigami's stomach wound, while the second segment shows the aftermath of what Tsurugi has torn from his stomach. Aside from this, a lot of scenes in the film had been re-arranged for the American release, so the sequence of events are in a different overall order. The original Japanese cut was finally released on Region 2 DVD in England in January of 2005, featuring the above mentioned shots, as well as some extended bits of dialogue, and the original scene order. Prior to this release, the only video version containing this cut was a first-release VHS in Japan. Despite this being the "X rated" cut in America, this version of the film was only given a "15" certificate in England.
