    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Hiroyuki Sanada tried to prepare for his role as Hanzo Hasashi/Scorpion by playing Mortal Kombat video games. "Of course I was beaten every time, just losing and losing," he laughs. "But I kept at the games to keep learning the stories, the background and the characters. It was so much fun."
    • Goofs
      In the first fighting scene, Bi Han slammed Hanzo Hasashi's head on a huge rock, there's a blood splatter seen on the rock but Hanzo's head seems to be fine. And when they move from the rock, the blood splatter disappeared.

      Scorpion: GET OVER HERE!

      [pulls Sub-Zero to him]

    • Crazy credits
      The Warner Bros logo appears with fire burning beneath it, while the New Line Cinema logo gets covered in ice. Fire and ice are the powers of Mortal Kombat rivals Scorpion and Sub-Zero.

    7/10
    7 is about right.
    Plot was lacking but the violence, gore and fighting choreography made up for it. The editing was a bit choppy and lacked in arrears that needed more detail. With all that being said, it was overall enjoyable if you're an MK fan.

    FAQ8

    • Will this be connected in any way to the Mortal Kombat: Legacy series?
    • The MK video game series is famed for its over-the-top gory finishing moves. Can the audience expect/hope to finally get a properly R-rated film adaption that properly represents this trademark?
    • Can someone tell if there is any post credits scene?
