The opening scene and then the first fight between Hanzo and Bi-Han was pretty dope and I loved how Hanzo tried to die touching his family but didn’t quite make it

[@badmotherfucker6328]

İ wish it was him and Sub Zero alone in the climax.

[@brezzendorf]

You can die by touching ice? 🤔

[@aidenpearce3287]

Ice doesn't work that way and i am sure Hanzo knows about that since their clans are against each other.

[@aidenpearce3287]

@Miguel Messina Ice doesn't spread like disease . Bi-Han frostfreezed them then left , he wasn't mantaining the cryomancy power for it to continue spreading the ice . The Ice that struck both Hanzo's wife and son are losing its cold and release excess energy every seconds .

@@aidenpearce3287 OP didn't say Hanzo tried dying by touching his family. They said he tried dying while touching his family.

The scene where Bi Han freezes Jax’s gun could be a reference to the scene in the 1995 film where Sub Zero froze Sonya’s gun

@@AttackShadow3463 YES!! Raiden knew that no one by themselves could beat Sub-Zero. They needed Hanzo

[@garcher7169]

Raiden didn’t teleport Scorpion or anything like that. He ‘got involved’ when he gave Cole the kunai with Scorpions blood on it because he knew that mixing Coles blood with Scorpions he could summon Scorpion because theyre from the same bloodline.

[@marioalt9420]

Cole being a punching bag kinda makes me think that at some level he's the movie adaptation of Meat :D His arm weapons could be a nod to Baraka's blades. And the crowbar is a nice, probably unplanned, Half-Life reference :D

[@waitaminutevids]

@6:26 you can see several Kamidogu symbols and significant organization symbols from within mk lore on the pillars i.e. the netherrealm kamidogu on the left middle pillar, the edenia/outworld kamidogu on the right middle pillar, the earthrealm kamidogu in the bottom right of the screen on that first pillar, etc.

[@darkvengeance2086]

The only reason I watched this movie is because it had Hiroyuki Sanada as scorpion ❤🔥

[@thisnewnamesystemisdumb]

6:36 Goro is ripping Kung Lao in half. Notice the same wristbands and headband.

[@tinyrecluse3142]

yeah i thought that was a really good nod to the actual storyline, not sure how many others caught it.

[@Zam_from_NerdTube]

I never thought of The Miz to play Cage but as soon as you mentioned him, I thought "perfect casting"

[@angelr6818]

The only reason people didn't like the movie is probably because there favorite character isn't in it or died

[@Avemor93]

My favorite characters were in the game and they didn't die. I disliked the movie because it felt rushed and it spat at the face of mortal kombat and pulled a star wars the force awakens on the mortal kombat franchise. An useless "hero" who suddenly becomes OP and beats the shit out of a legend? Arcanas, and dragon "tattoos"? All that training nonsense in the middle of the movie? They were supposed to be earthrealm champions, who fight relentlessly to defend earth, not some underdog nobodies who looked like they had no idea what they were doing..... Overll, that movie may appeal to the mainstream yound audience with all its contemporary tropes but for a true fan of the series, it's nothing short of a joke. P.S The combat choreography was done really nice though.

[@BoiseyMusic]

I liked the movie but the acting for the most part was not that great and the writing was terrible. The pacing was way too quick. Just seemed very rushed.

[@realxjosh8298]

Nope people criticized for the characters that were in it and the story

[@rogerskitt1542]

Only took almost 30years for a legit mortal kombat live action movie. Thank god

[@J.O.R.D]

Was the way Scorpion said “get over here” more clearer than it was in the trailer ? And his signature chain attack looks amazinggg and so does the way it just slicks back into his hand or sleeve! I did however want a teleport kick and we just didn’t get it 🙄

[@MythicSushi]

I do think it was redone compared to the trailer. Not sure if they ripped it straight from the latest game or not though

[@FlipGuitarist80]

I personally liked the trailer version

[@RagnarokFLyTuT]

it was because the trailer version is more realistic since Hanzo is from Japan and likely only could do some broken english but at the same time fans wanna have at least the similar "GET OVER HERE" one from the game. So the director heard us fans and did a redone for us to make that sounds similar to the game =)

[@TravionMusic]

0:02 Idk wtf Sub-Zero did right there, when that blood turned into a knife and he spun and stabbed him. But my God, I love that part.

The Kano in this movie acted more like Captain Boomerang and less like a weapons dealer who becomes the General of Kahn's army.

Technically he was only the Kano we know from the games for like one week I don’t even think he killed anybody on screen with his laser eye lol

Everyone is totally sleeping on Joel McHale being the perfect Johnny Cage! He even voiced him in scorpions revenge. Joel has the build, the comedy background and the all around attitude that’s perfect for Johnny Cage
