The fighting is good, well choreographed and quite brutal in places without going too gory with it. A few are okay, but most are… well, suited for such a low-budget movie, let’s put it that way) and you can shut your brain off for an hour and a half and it will pass the time quite harmlessly. Go in with those low expectations (because trust me, nobody is acting well here. Ignoring the frankly damn near lying marketing for this film and looking at it as a low-budget martial arts action film then it’s perfectly fine. He is brought to a crazy religious cult led by someone only known as “The Minister”, who gives him the letter “K” as his codename and has an explosive surgically implanted in his chest that should he fail his mission or attempt to leave the organization he would detonate…Īll things being fair, some of the fighting is perfectly…. Is there any point in mentioning the game series in this post? I felt stupid reviewing Tekken 7 alongside this… Well, ignoring all that, is this clearly stand-alone non-Tekken film worth watching anyway? Let’s see…Ī man with no recollection of his past wakes up in an apartment in a district outside Tekken City before he is chased by armed men and nabbed by a female assassin. Hell, Kazuya doesn’t even get his revenge in the film, mostly because it’s a prequel rather than a sequel! Even in the confines of what happens to him in this film his revenge goes unfulfilled. Beyond three character names and two returning actors it’s clearly another script they just slapped “Tekken 2” on top of. So… What on Earth is this? Tekken 2 is no more a Tekken film than I’m a chicken.
