Gripped by the same wave excitement that hit me when I first heard the theme music playing as the MK logo came up on screen. The film is pure action entertainment, closer to Whasango (Volcano High) than Fist of Legend in terms of fight value. One of those movies where you can't take it just for the action, nor just for the cheesy story line, nor the nerd-thrilling presentation. Gotta take it as a whole package while you're chilling with your buddies coz it can do nothing but ROCK YOUR WORLD!

When you take a video game where the whole game is simply one-on-one fighting, there is not much story to go with. Apparently the makers of this movie simply accepted that fact and said "so what?"
The action scenes are at times enjoyable, at times laughable, and at times boring. But more importantly, there are other ways they could have worked the use of fight scenes into this movie. That's one of the (few) things that they did better in the second film. Simply saying "we're here for ... Read More

Hello folks.
I persoanlly think this is the best video game movie ever made. not that many video game movies even come close with the exception of final fantasy VII advent children.

Love him or hate him, we video game fans need to tip our caps to director Paul Anderson: regardless of whether you enjoyed his adaptation of "Resident Evil", he gave us our first decent game-to-movie outing when he pioneered "Mortal Kombat" - still considered by some to be the best movie-ization of a video game, period. Indeed, "Kombat" came as a breath of fresh air after the stiflingly insipid attempts that were "Super Mario Bros.", "Double Dragon", and "Street Fighter: The Movie", for not only did it ... Read More

As a Mortal Kombat fan I couldn't ask for a better movie. Locations, characters, moves are just like the game. And this package comes with a decent plot, too. Only downside is the lack of gore in fatalities but in order to get a PG-13 rating they had to tone the fatalities down, but no complaints, they still look good.
I loved it, I own it and I watched it maybe 20 times and still enjoy it.
