Tekken is a 2009 American martial arts film directed by Dwight H. Little and distributed by Warner Bros. and Anchor Bay Entertainment. It was written by Alan B. McElroy and is based on the fighting game series of the same name. Its story follows Jin Kazama in his attempts to enter the Iron Fist Tournament in order to avenge the loss of his mother, Jun Kazama, by confronting his father, Kazuya Mishima and his grandfather, Heihachi Mishima, the latter of whom he thought was responsible for her death. This was followed by a 2014 prequel entitled Tekken 2: Kazuya's Revenge.
In the year of 2039, after World Wars destroy much of the civilization as we know it, territories are no longer run by governments, but by corporations; the mightiest of which is the Mishima Zaibatsu. In order to placate the seething masses of this dystopia, Mishima sponsors Tekken, a tournament in which fighters battle until only one is left standing.

The story follows a dystopian future where evil corporations control the world and throw an ann…
