The trailer for the upcoming martial arts film "Tekken" is now online. The film is based on the popular video game series of the same name. The trailer doesn't look too bad and the film should be better than "Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li" and "DOA: Dead or Alive".
The film is directed by Dwight H. Little and the written by Alan B. McElroy. Cyril Raffaelli is the film's fight choreographer and this is good news for fans of martial arts films. Raffaelli is a French martial artist and stuntman who co-starred and choreographed the fights in the French action flicks "Banlieue 13" and "Banlieue 13 Ultimatum". You may also remember him as one of the twins who fight Jet Li at the end of "Kiss of the Dragon".
