Mortal Kombet movie is a cinematic reboot of a fighting video game and the past movies as well. It’s one of the most popular fighting games, which most of us have played. Also we all must have seen the old movies of this fantasy series.
From a video game to the movies, journey of this franchise is quite awesome, creating fans all around the world.
The story as we all know is about the war between different worlds and if earth loose Shang Tsung will rule as a God killing and torturing everyone.
To stop that earth greatest heroes need to gather around and win under the guidance of Lord Raiden.
The reboot story shows us a different storyline with a few similarities then the previous movies with some amazing on screen effects, action and characters. It even has a glimpse of recently released Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge (Animation).
But if you are a big Mortal Kombat fan, then you might find the movie disappointing, as the previous movies made our expectations so high. And the last animated move (Scorpion’s Revenge) was actually amazing.
But a few things in the movie will still surprise you and also the performance of Sub-Zero is quite astounding. This franchise will be having two more parts coming up may cover all the loose ends.
If you will be watching this for the first time you might love the movie. With mixed reviews and reactions I would suggest not to have high hopes and just sit back, relax and enjoy a good action packed fantasy movie.
Rating : 6.5/10
