Right so, same plot as Mortal Kombat, ok fair enough good film. However.... i was a big fan of the game Mortal Kombat and when i heard outside opinions i just didn't listen, now i'm the outsider as i never ventured into the world of 'Soul' whatitsface, thus very interesting from my point of view, another Mortal Kombat regardless

If they could make it as good or better than Mortal Kombat 1 Ill be happy What I want to know is why Max Payne isnt being made into a movie... Or Diablo

I hope that they dont make this movie crap like they did with mortal kombat. Also, they are making the third installment of Mortal kombat. I hope this will be better than the first two movies where.

I'd say Mortal Kombat 1 was decent for an action flick, I agree with MK2 though. Perhaps the recent additions of hollywood actions stars such as of Jet Li and Jackie Chan has dulled the fighting element in MK1. Or perhaps the use of special effects like the matrix played a role too .... either way, at the time it was released I remember going to theathers to go see it and I thought it rocked.
