" Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun-Li, the latest live action adaptation of the iconic fighting game series, has already received a number of negative reviews. The film was released in the US on February 27, with a wave of less-than-complimentary reviews immediately appearing on Metacritic. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s an anonymous soup of pan-Asian action cliches slopped into the story of a fast-kicking hottie out to avenge her kidnapped father,&amp;quot; wrote Entertainment Weekly&amp;#039;s Adam Markovitz. &amp;quot;The fight scenes are saggy, the actors are stiff, and the sleepiness of it all is enough to make you nostalgic for the simple smackdown charms of the movie&amp;#039;s namesake videogame.&amp;quot; The Hollywood Reporter&amp;#039;s Frank Scheck was equally critical. &amp;quot;Yet another video game crashes and burns upon its translation to the big screen with this cinematic rendition of the venerable franchise,&amp;quot; he said. The game was previously adapted for the big screen in 1994, starring Jean-Claude Van Damme and Raul Julia. It was also slated by critics.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
