| My Second favorite movie of all time (by cyntax2000) |
| Once again. you guys need to learn how to have fun with cool cheesy movies. Ans once again to all you video game junkies, my sympathies i guess this movie rocked and ruled beyond any words could possibly say. first the casting. sooooooo much better than the original. Sandra Hess did a much more warm and believable Sonia Blade. and common James Remar, deadpan and srait performance make him the ultimate Rayden. The only fault is the untimely death of Johnny Cage, masterfully played by Chris Conrad this go around. Brian Thompson is also very impressive as Shao Khan. I loved the Biblical <more> |
| A very COOL MK adaptation! Interesting, fun and specular! (by dainton9) |
| Many people complain that this movie is "bad" "worst ever" and such things, but it's maybe because they haven't play the game, or for them the budget is too low. But all this is damn, the real thing that the movie is perfect in adaptation. Almost all players have appeared in the movie, their movements and even their special abilities: Smoke- launches rockets with the same movement as in game, Jax returns, but now with his METAL ARMS ! , Cyrax- launches acid web, Sub-zero- freezes. Yeah I know that the budget's not too big, 40$ millions, but that's not the <more> |
| So Bad Its Pure Genius. (by OrangeClown) |
| Plan 9 seems to be everyones favorite Bad But Good film, but mine is right here. This movie is so blatantly stupid, Ex. the ending, that its terrific! I've never laughed harder than that one part where Kitana explains how Liu Kang must defeat Sub Zero using water!!! And Jax coming out of the blue, from this hospital it looked like for no reason.Gotta love it. 10/10. |
| This movie is better then it looks . (by I_Was_Incepted) |
| It's been a while since i saw the movie so I pulled it out of my DVD closet and watch it ones more . I agree that Johnny Cage his death is a little strange but look , they had a real good storyline ! The actors where great and so was the fighting scenes . I think this movie is better then the first one . I really do . There are more characters , Robin Shou's acting is way better then the first movie .What more can you expect of a movie !! it had it's ups and downs i agree , but it sticks to the video game right , the video game never killed Johnny Cage , because the video game <more> |
| MKA Comments The Movie (by baby_titch2) |
| I reckon that the movie was awesome! I am not really a MK fan and i am definitely not a play-station fan. Sure the graphics are a bit crappy but i think that over all the movie was good! And the portrayal of James Remar playing Rayden like a wuss is completely unacceptable, the fact that he seems more...soft shall we say. Makes it a lot more humanizing of the thunder god. I really enjoyed MKA a lot more compared to the first. Also the fact that Rayden is faced with a difficult decision shows just how serious the situation is. Well there's my 5cents worth!! Enjoy. So my summary is this: If <more> |
| A film that kicked some ass, but was kicked back too. (by LordHolocaust) |
| Now, for those people that say this is a crap film, hold your horses. This film did lack something that the first film had, but this one had something the other one didn't; Shao Kahn and Motaro! I'll admit, the effects on this film were no Reptile statue transformation, or purple blob transporter, but the monsters that kept pouncing out from corners did a good job. The overall rating for this film would get a 6 from me, but I give it a 3 point addition due to animality transformation sequences, leaving my vote to a solid 9. Hopefully, the good power-punching action from this film and <more> |
| Awesome! (by atomicmajor) |
| I love the original Mortal Kombat movies. They always bring me some strange pleasant kind of mood, and you just sit and enjoy them.Yes, the budget is low, special effects are cheap and actors aren't well-known. So what? If you understand, that the movie is a video game adaptation, you'll see, that most of the game characters appear and they have game-like moves and tricks. You feel that it's made with the same spirit! And this is very unlike most adaptations, which look like different stories.Seeing so many bad reviews and ratings makes me think that these people just didn't <more> |
| Not as good as MK1, but not the worst film ever (by elpaz79903) |
| This movie shouldn't even be in the worst 100 list on any website. OK, maybe it wasn't as good as part 1, but it did introduce new characters, the plot somewhat went along with the game, and it was good to see old actors from part 1 come back and reprise their roles. Two things that made me give this movie an 8 rating: 1 Would have love to see Chris Lambert reprise his role of Rayden instead of this other guy.2 Lame CGI when it came to the Animality scene toward the end, would have worked better with showing somewhat real animals.Other than that, this movie is OK in my book.8/10 <more> |
| Pretty good sequel to the first Mortal Kombat (by mwcrunner) |
| This sequel to the first Mortal Kombat is pretty good, but I did not like it that Johnny Cage had to die at the beginning. He's one of the very important characters in the Mortal Kombat franchise. Now this sequel includes more characters from the franchise and it also includes the return of Sub-Zero and Scorpion. Of course they did appear only for a couple of minutes but still it was worth seeing them in this. In this movie Liu Kang has to fight Shao Khan Raiden's brother in order to save the world and all other realms. With the help of Sonya, Jax, Katana and Raiden they defeat Shao <more> |
