aargh.... i wanted this movie to be good but it was soooooo bad.

the storyline (or lack of it), sucks man!

action was okay but i can't get over the motives of their fight. it was suppose to be a competition, mortal kombat. but here we are served with pre-fights instead of the actual competition at all.

even though it's gory but everything feels very silly and cartoonish.

such a let down since i was a major fan looking towards a fresh look for this franchise.

it also lacks the infamous soundtrack. bummer.

PS: and the way they explain about "choosing" candidates and how it can be substituted, meh!

This is like an origin story la, takkan they stuff everything into one movie. Saving the competition for the sequel

Story was better than expected, the original mortal kombat film's plot was sillier and stupider

Finally got to watch it, not in the cinema though because I heard some parts were censored/zoomed in. I thought it was pretty good for a video game movie. The characters were pretty spot on and the fighting was well executed. What I didn't quite like is some of the cringey dialogues and the thing about finding their arcana which I thought was kinda ridiculous (Kano found his because of some eggrolls!) but hey I just roll with it. Oh and they completely butchered the theme song! Overall I think Mortal Kombat fans will have a blast watching this. I still prefer the dumb first movie because I watched it as a kid and it has a special place in my heart.
