Mortal Kombat (2021)
5/10
Fatality
27 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Well, it was certainly an MK movie, for better or worse. The script was kinda lame and the fight scenes were a bit stiff but I was weirdly okay with that given the source material. The real fatality for this movie is its choice of main protagonist and the story it chooses to tell.

The whole 'clueless new character as a conduit for the audience' shtick really backfires here. He's so unbelievably boring, you will find yourself relishing every moment this guy isn't on screen. His power is LITERALLY plot armour mixed with a comeback mechanic. I died. They really should have just stuck with the story of Scorpion and Sub-Zero.
