    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 fighting scene with sub zero and Cole when the floor is frozen, it can be seen that due to characters moving there are wrinkles in the fake sheet of snow.
    • Quotes

      [Kung Lao cuts Nitara in half with his hat]

      Kung Lao: Flawless victory!

    • 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.

    Fun, gory but could be better!
    I don't really play Mortal Kombat or even follow the concept behind it. But even so, I enjoyed this movie. The fighting choreography is top notch! The costume, the cgi is also worth the hype. I love that they decided to make it rated R. But there's also some things that bothered me, like some bad cinematography, cheesy dialogues, and the somehow boring protagonist. The act 3 of the movie really felt rushed like the writers only had 5 minutes left to finish the script. I hope the sequel will have a better act 3.

    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?
