Sister Street Fighter - 1974

One more Street Fighter movie down... This one I'd for sure not seen before.  At this point in the series I believe it really went off the rails, though I'll have to check imdb later to be sure.

From my memory, Karate Bear Fighter and Karate Bull Fighter remain. But this was a departure by taking Sonny Chiba and putting him in more of a cameo role, as the main character is clearly the "Sister".

Sister Street Fighter has this innocent enough girl go against bad guys and seek revenge, but the plot takes too much dialogue as we wait for shit to happen. I fell asleep the entire film the first watching.

Gone are the cool effects and editing, gone is the charismatic main hero, gone is the music (mostly) and instead this sorta becomes a rape and revenge standard 70s grab bag.

Sonny Chiba appears in the very ass end and helps save the day, as if to cement the point that even though this is Sister Street Fighter, she can't actually defeat the baddies alone.

half a star.
