Mortal Kombat .......8/10 I signed up for God-tier martial arts skills and gore. And It delivered on its promise. No time wasting energy on plot or storyline. There's other movies meant for this. At least this one doesn't pretend to be such and plays to its strengths. MK is not even a game franchise known for plot, so don't understand the Wailings. If your looking for gaming movie with plot and nuance wait for The Last of Us. Kano is easily the best developed character in this movie. Even his acting was way above average unlike everyone else. 8 Likes 1 Share |

wintersnow: Be careful before you start having nightmares. Most of these movies are written under dark influence. God forbid I see any horror/satanic motivated movies in my life again. |

Just like the expectations for MK was high, what's the next big movie to expect?? |

StPete:They are big, but don’t get your expectations high Fast and Furious 9 Black Widow |

I really don't get why everyone has been rating mortal kombat really low. The movie wasn't bad at all; the fights were on point, the acting wasn't that bad, and Kano added a bit of comedy to the movie. What else do people want from a movie series that is known to be based majorly on fights PS:The movie had a bit of story to it as well. |

About the Oscars. . . I don't understand why Daniel Kaluuya and Lakeith Stanfield were both put into the supporting male role. If they both played supporting roles, so who played the lead roles in the movie? I'm of the opinion that after the excellent performance of Kaluuya in Judas and the Black Messiah, they couldn't afford not rewarding him with an Oscar due to the terrific and brilliant performance of Hopkins in The Father or vice versa, hence placing him the in Best Actor in Supporting Role category. It's all good. Happy for him. |

Mortal Kombat (2021). 5/10 The movie would have been better if they hadn't rushed the characters/movie. They weren't enough room to build the background story of the characters. The whole thing felt so rushed. They'd have made the movie like MCU and DCEU-styled superheroes franchise. Get one or two acts and tell their stories in one film, then other acts in another movie and ultimately bringing them together in one movie for the ultimate showdown. 1 Like 1 Share |

Beorn:I agree with this. That thing really shocked me, I was wondering who's now the lead. Is it Lakeith or Kaluuya? Putting them in same category is disingenuous, an opportunity for another person to win. This year's Oscars is sub par mehn. Imagine an Oscar that I haven't even watched about 90% (if not more) of the movies nominated. Omo I choke. The ratings (viewership) to this year Awards proves hardly much people cared for this. Over 50% less viewers as compared to the last. |

Beorn:WB feared the odds of a black person wining an oscar in a leading role was too high. Instead they pit the two of them in a supporting actor category which they both stood a better chance of winning and it paid off. Then again it shows how "rotten" the Oscar has become, they are all for womans right, sexual abuse, LGBT rights even mental health but when it comes to black rights? Mba. |

abduleez1:Lakeith was the lead. Oscars and grammies are two whitewashed and politicised awards. |

Beorn:This is exactly how I feel. As an avid MK player back in the day, I kinda believe this will be way different from the first two movies. Was really shocked after I finished watching it. They should have spent more time building the story/plot and characters. The only thing I appreciate in the movie was how they explained how the chosen fighters got their special abilities. Mind you, in MK the characters usually have more than one special ability. Let's hope they'll make the sequel more engaging and interesting. They should take a cue from Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpions Revenge. 1 Like |

I was thrilled by Sub-zero's character and also Kung Lao's fatality. Another high point for me was the scene where Cole threw a knife to Sanya as she spinned to catch it and stab reptile. Mortal Kombat is all about violence. Violence in the most gruesome of forms. As much as Kano was funny; fights, fatalities and brutalities are the high points of the game from which the movie was adapted 2 Likes |
