Gary Daniels, Darrin Dewitt Henson, Candice Hillebrand, Kelly Overton, Marian Zapico, Jon Foo, Lateef Crowder, Roger Huerta, and Anton Kasabov in Tekken (2010)

The year is 2039. World wars have destroyed everything and territories are run by corporations, the mightiest -- and cruelest -- of which is Tekken. Jin Kazama (John Foo) witnesses the death of his mother Jun (Tomita) by Tekken in the slums known as Anvil. Vowing vengeance, and armed only with his street smarts and raw fighting skills, he enters a dangerous and potentially deadly combat tournament, where he must defeat the world's most elite fighters to become the "King of the Iron Fist."

Trivia
Because production kept getting delayed, the shooting of Cung Le's fight scene overlapped with the actor's training for an upcoming MMA match. While filming, Jon Foo accidentally cut Le above his lip, but Le insisted they keep shooting so he could return to training as soon as possible. The blood seen on Le's face in his scene is real.

Goofs
There are 10 fighters participating in the Iron Fist tournament. This can't lead to a conventional tournament because after the first round there would be 5 people left and there is no real format to make that work as semi-finals.

Quotes
Eddy Gordo: Bring it on, boy!

Crazy credits
After the film's end, there's an additional scene, showing Kazuya Mishima in a jail, then Heihachi Mishima with a Tekken soldier about to execute him. Heihachi Mishima repeats that he is Tekken and that the soldier should obey him. The soldier does just that and Heihachi Mishima is spared execution.

Actually not that bad

I was surprised positively. Yes, it's a video game adaption and from what I can tell it doesn't stick too much too it story wise, but for me it was quite entertaining. It's stupid, but not yet on a level where you want to face palm yourself all the time. It's much more serious than DOA and I still like that one better, but that's mostly because of its all-out- trash-appeal and because the fight choreography is a million times better. In Tekken many fights look like training exercises, many cuts can't hide, that you're not watching one fight, but many separate actions. Plus, there are some shots that are supposed to look dramatic or cool, but the just look badly done.

But all in all, it's mildly entertaining, it does look more expensive than it was, the cos-play-factor is bearable and some ideas in the fights are nice to see. I would never buy it, but for rent it's entertaining 90 minutes of mindless fun.
