Mortal Kombat is one of my favorite movies of all time. Now here is a video where I rip it apart for all the things that don't make sense! Let me know if you want more videos like this.
Thanks to Kieran for the game footage!

I think you missed a very important and very obvious aspect of this movie. Shang Tsung tries to manipulate the best fighters to come to the tournament because he is using Goro to kill them so that he can capture their souls. The souls of great fighters will make Tsung more powerful.

Okay look I pause the video 5 minutes and 33 seconds in to inform you Johnny Cage was based off of Jean-Claude Van Damme and one of John Claude Van Damme's biggest pet peeves was the people did not think he was an actual martial artist it made perfect sense to me that the character in the movie had this issue it was honestly the issue of many 80s action Stars people thought and still think that he was never a real martial artist nowadays you can check facts to a degree that is absolutely unheard of or at least was unheard of back when Mortal Kombat the movie came out yes nowadays you can check and see that he won multiple World Championships in actual martial arts tournaments back then all you had was the word of the person talking possibly an old black-and-white photo and nobody wanted to believe a guy that pretty with obvious background in ballet was a world-class martial artist... Mortal Kombat was originally supposed to be the Bloodsport video game but Van Damme didn't want any part of it so they made their own version of a Bloodsport game with no Bloodsport that kept them from getting sued by the people that made Bloodsport the final move in the movie Bloodsport is the split nut punch which was one of Johnny cages original from the first game special moves and the movie used in the movie to defeat Goro

That is also when Sonya had faced her fear, which Raiden mentioned earlier, trust issues. It was her trust that Liu Kang and Johnny will come and save her, that made her not accept Shang Tsung's challenge. Had she continue to believe that everyone was only going to get in her way then she would've accepted and lost.

12:01 FYI: In the 3.0 version of MK arcade, where Reptile was introduced, a double flawless with fatality and no blocks at The Pit was all that was required to get to Reptile. The problem was that it was impossible to get to him as Sonya because her fatality involved using the block button. In the 4.0 version they reworked the code so that one could push block during the match and still get to Reptile just as long as their life bar isn't damaged. But they also added the detail of it only working if a random silhouette travels across the moon.

from what I understand the Reptile and Scorpion fight were added after test audiences complained that the movie didn't have enough fights, which is why the Reptile fight feels shoehorned in. I could have done without the CG Reptile, but having Shang Tsung have the Humanoid Reptile ambush the heroes in Outworld would have been fine. But, the reptile fight imo, is one of the best fights in the movie, the actors put a lot of hard work into it. The actor who played Liu Kang broke his ribs when he gets thrown into the pillar in that scene.

Great movie essay, loved it -- you raise a lot of good points. I did want to share some insight into some of your qualms. There's a reason Shang Tsung has to seek out the best of the best (and by that I mean, Liu Kang). They are chosen by the Elder Gods as the best representatives of their realms. As host of the tournament, it is Shang Tsung's responsibility to seek out these chosen warriors and extend the tournament invitation to them. How did they know Liu Kang could defeat Shang Tsung but Johnny and Sonya couldn't? They weren't just making brass assumptions. Raiden specifically mentioned, when asked why he wasn't talking to Earthrealm's fighters, "I have looked into their souls, and into yours. One of you three will decide the outcome of the tournament." You can tell he knew which of the three would win, but wasn't ready to disclose that yet. Shang Tsung looked into their souls as well -- and knew which one of them stood a chance of winning (i.e., Liu Kang). So when he challenges Sonya and Johnny, it really is an act of cowardice. Most of this can be inferred from the subtext of the film itself, but it's reinforced elsewhere (i.e., the film's novelization, statements by the film's cast and crew, stuff from the original games, etc.). As your resident MK lore expert I'll by happy to go into more detail about any of this -- any time, anywhere!

I just think that Liu knew that wasn't his brother, but he just got emotional seeing the "ghost" of his brother. I think that when Raiden talked to Sonya about teamwork, he was referring to Sonya constantly saying to Liu and Johnny that she's fine on her own. For Johnny Cage, I can see him needing to prove himself. He does look like a pretty boy. Kitana isn't a waste to me. Since she is the emperor's adoptive, I guess it would just look weird if she was just following Liu. Also, Shang Shung did order Kitana to fight Liu. Shang Shung is a bad guy. He thinks the rules don't apply to him. I have nothing else.

I like to think Reptile’s random fight scene was added as a little fanservice moment referencing when he was an unlockable hidden character in the first game. Still awesome either way.

It always felt like some stuff involving Liu Kang was cut out of the film. A training montage or something where someone explains who he's descended from and that he too has the "power" or something. Maybe if you ever meet Robin Shou, you can ask him.

hey tony , new to your channel , just tought looking up your channel since rental review is down. gotta say i'm a fan of your critics since the first time i saw u on RR. always as a good sense of personnal interpretations along with life experiences and all that stuff i really know i dont have to explain this to you , tho on this FIRST episode i am watching of ur own channel i really feel like i must object in a respecfull way and say : u might have Dropped the ball on this one. u did not seem take the hero journey in consideration!. Yknow the stuff where the player /or the protagonist gets stronger?. Cage ( ok this one is a personnal strech) seemed to me like he was probably wanting to prove his skills to himself, but theres always the possibility that he was just fooled by his fake agent into thinking the tournament was mediatized , as implied strongly into the very intro of cage . etc etc etc . i have a ton of respect for you tony.and seriously i'm not that big of a MK fan. Luv .

Man, I got left out. I only got the cartridge and not the box or manual. Back in the day, you could get the games cheaper without the box and that's what most of my family did when they bought me games back in the Genesis era.

As a kid, we were disappointed because there was almost no blood. Especially, Baraka was my favorite, because TONS OF BLOOD (yes, he was in MK2). Mortal Kombat without blood was so rediculous in our young minds :)

My headcanon for the reptile thing (when I was a kid) was that the statue was an artificial outworld footsoldier. That in this instance, Subzero and Scorpion were made the same way with abilities dependent on whatever was placed inside the statues that made them (say, some sort of ice spirit and a demon as an example). This is why they have the same uniforms (but with the color swap) because they are all made from the same base form.

1. Liu Kang has fans. 2. When Liu Kang answers Johnny Cage about not knowing why he's so special, it's a question about himself. Because his ancestor beat Shang Tsung doesn't necessarily make Liu Kang special. It doesn't mean he doesn't know anything about Kung Lao.

I have a little theory about why Liu Kang says Flawless Victory at the end. Shang Tsung vs Liu Kang fight was divided into 3 rounds, the first round won by Liu Kang after he defeats Shang Tsung's reanimated warriors, the he chases Tsung to the top of the arena where he "tricks" Liu and they start round 2 with Tsung winning after slamming Liu's head to the ground. Then round 3 starts, from what I saw, Liu doesn't take a single hit (blocked hits don't count because movie) and defeats Tsung by finishing him off with the fatality which in the games was a series of kicks followed by an uppercut that could trigger the pit stage fatality, the only difference would be the "fireball" at the end, and more punches than kicks. So, if we go by the 3 rounds format, technically Liu Kang got a flawless victory in round 3.

Nah, I think Sub-Zero gets treated a lot worse than Scorpion in the movie. True, Scorpion doesn't get to kill anyone, but he gets way more screen time than Sub-Zero, and he has a badass fight with Johnny Cage (possibly the best fight in the movie). Meanwhile, Sub-Zero is easily defeated by Liu Kang in a brief and underwhelming fight. I loved Sub-Zero when I was a kid, and I was so disappointed by how he was treated in the movie.
