I have no words or anything good I would say to this movie. It's just beyond terrible...
For starters, what do you think of Tekken? It's a 3D Fighting game franchise! And what do you think of this movie that tries to adapt the name of the franchise? Well guess what, NONE OF THIS FILM BARELY HAS ANY SOURCE MATERIAL FROM TEKKEN!! It's so bad it's even more than a migraine for this trashy movie to exist! I'll tell you why this movie is easy to avoid and keep away from watching.
This movie was directed by Wych Kaosayananda, better off known as Kaos, is notorious for directing the worst movie of all-time, Ballistic: Ecks Vs Sever which starred Antonio Banderas and Lucy Liu. Somehow I don't know why would he want to start production on this god forbidden film that barely resembles or has anything in mind with the Tekken franchise. Hell, not even Bandai Namco's license are anywhere on the DVD/Blu-Ray covers or even the Credits. They probably would've knew this movie would be a ginormous bomb for the audience. And honestly for me, they should've never pitched a prequel for the first Tekken movie from 2010 and shouldn't even bother making this one in the first place. But I'm only going to talk about the characters, details and that's it. Alright let's begin.
There are about only three characters from the Tekken games that appear in this movie, Kazuya Mishima played by Kane Kosugi who was Ryu Hayabusa in the DOA: Dead or Alive movie which I don't mind him in that, in this movie however he resemble absolutely zero percent of Kazuya in the games! Let alone he only bears the goatee from the 2010 Tekken movie and that's it. No slick-back Vegeta hairstyle, just Kane Kosugi's regular hairstyle fit for this god-awful movie. Then there's Heihachi Mishima who was played by Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa in the first Tekken movie, he doesn't even sport the hairdo from the fighting games in this film, just completely shaved bald like they just decide to throw him in a few scenes and just have him resume his roles in other films at the time. And lastly there's Bryan Fury previously played by Gary Daniels in the 2010 film. He returns in this movie, but looking more like just Gary Daniels himself without resembling the character from the fighting games. He doesn't sport the hairstyle that Brian had and he never goes around bare-chested, just putting on regular civilian clothes throughout this movie.
The rest of this movie's very own uninspired characters, I really do not even want to know or remember or even understand their names or descriptions, I will just have to make them up myself and describe who they resemble. There is a Milla Jovovich ripoff, a Brittany Spears schoolgirl ripoff, and honestly none of the entire characters resemble anything or anyone from Tekken at all. There's even one character just called "Janitor" who sometimes likes to help Kazuya and then he's just nowhere in the movie after that. It's like they just quickly bring those actors to this movie so they would obtain their paychecks and leave. According to the movie's description on the girl characters, they mentioned that they were inspired by Nina and Anna Williams. I'd say that's absolutely bull because they look nothing like the characters like they're just messing with you having to make you buy this god-awful movie! But this one movie has a girl who helps out Kazuya in this movie and some people would say it's Jun Kazama, but nope, just a regular girl called Laura with no other Tekken appearances. That's all the characters I mentioned who were a part of this garbage movie.
But anyways, ugh I hate this movie so much I don't even want to understand the plot. I'll probably make it quick, It starts with Kazuya who is called "K" in this movie because the writers thought the letter of the alphabet would make the name useful of a protagonist. He's having some sort of dream which are literally footages taken from the 2010 Tekken film. And then he fights down a bunch of guards and is forced to become an assassin after this cult minister implanted a bomb in his chest (doesn't that sound like Ecks Vs Sever anyone?). This Milla Jovovich woman provides him with tasks throughout the movie and SPENDS MORE TIME WALKING AND WALKING AND WALKING! AND IT EVEN GETS WORSE THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE! His flashbacks keep coming back to him, haunting him, and then somehow Heihachi would appear and disappear like they made him teleport which doesn't make any sense. Even the film's characters would sometimes disappear in Batman style, again NOTHING IN THIS MOVIE MAKES ANY MORE SENSE DUE TO THE WRITERS AND PRODUCER'S INEXPERIENCE WITH TEKKEN!!! But sure nothing else could ease it off with this girl named Laura who helps Kazuya in this movie by stitching his wound after saving her from a guy with a knife, and also taking out the bomb from Kazuya's chest, even making him Spaghetti too. They also find Bryan Fury in this movie who Kazuya and Milla ripoff try to assassinate but fail, and then somehow meets the two at an outdoor table giving them info and is never to be scene from again. So towards the end they kill the minister and finds Laura being taken over to GenTek which has just some awful fight scenes. Even the whole movie's fights are just sloppy and never even satisfying. Kazuya finds Heihachi at the end only to realize that his full name is "Kazuya Mishima" and somehow he's snaps at his own father because it's not from when he was thrown from the cliff as a child, it's that his own dad had to brainwash him in order to test his strength. The girl Laura that Heihachi has captured has to seduce her alongside with killing her leaving Kazuya enraged, LIKE HELL YOU ONLY MET THIS GIRL A FEW TIMES THROUGHOUT THIS MOVIE, IT'S NOT LIKE SHE'S YOUR LONG-TIME LOVER OR SOMETHING!!! So at the end he fights two stupidly named fighters Rip and Thorn and Kazuya wins the fight over them and the movie just ends with Kazuya and Milla bootleg walking toward the entrance where Heihachi leads, and closes the movie with Heihachi in a green screen background looking at Tekken City. OH MY GOD THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST TEKKEN MOVIE ADAPTATION OF ALL-TIME!!! THIS INSULTS THE TEKKEN FRANCHISE TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL AND I JUST CAN'T GET OVER HOW EXTREMELY AWFUL THE WRITING, DIRECTING, AND CAST THAT THIS PUTRID MOVIE HAS TO OFFER!!
There's is nothing positive to say about this movie because I have already hated it beyond my watching experience and it shouldn't even exist unlike the first Tekken movie which did ok to me.
But you know in the first movie they shot around Louisiana which is not too bad the fact that the set designs look rather cool, but here they filmed this movie all in Thailand and looks so bland and cheap that it doesn't make you feel like you're watching Tekken. The fighting stadium they used in this movie is more outdoors, abandoned, and rusty compared to how the 2010 Tekken movie used an indoor stadium with a crowd of audience along with the neon "TEKKEN" signs and digital holographic stages. What the hell happened in Kazuya's Revenge?! They hardly even try to adapt Tekken let alone just slap the name on their cover!!
Like I said, the best way to not watch this garbage of a movie is to burn down every copy of this film and leave it all in the incinerator. There's a few other better Fighting game films that I still recommend and STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS FORGOTTEN ASS MOVIE!!
