You can watch it after the break or click here to see it in resolutions up to 1080p.

We're happy to report that Joey Ansah, Owen Trevor and Streetlight Films have figured out the secret formula for making a good Street Fighter movie: make it really short. There's no time for terrible dialogue, shoehorned character cameos or questionable characterization in this three-minute film. There's just time for one beautifully shot fight sequence between Ryu and Ken ... which makes sense for a movie based on a fighting game.

Street Fighter Legacy, a short film co-written, co-directed and choreographed by Ansah, is an attempt to treat Capcom's fighting franchise the right way, with an emphasis on a grown-up story and faithful visuals. Apparently, the project is promising enough to receive Capcom's "blessing," according to Ansah.

A few poster images and two (very) brief teaser trailers, which you can see after the break, reveal just how faithful Street Fighter Legacy's look is. Ken's eyebrows are accurate, we'll say that much.
