What did /v/ think?
>>750200996Eh. It was kind of a mess, but it was a mostly fun mess. I felt like the fighting should have been more visually impressive. Also, modern cinematography is shit. Really suffered from building up this fighting tournament that we didn't get to see any of, then following it up with a total non-ending. I knew that Ryu and Ken singing "What's Going On" was going to happen at a crucial point, but I didn't expect it to be the literal climax, which they totally fumbled the tone of anyway.Basically, it's what happens if you try and make an anime movie (tournament arc+power of friendship) while being too ashamed to actually embrace those concepts.

It was basically MCU-tier cringification. It was clear the writers were insecure about having a straight bro-moment where literal singing brings ryu back to life, so they added in cutaways to Don Sauvage to break the cringe-tension. I'm tired of nutless directors who are afraid to platter up a genuine emotional beat.
