Reptile's aggression was just on another level. No exposition, no talking. The beat drops and he kicks you through a wall.
He fighting out of rage
Don't forget the "reptile"part.
Yo right? This dude is, like "okay...I'm alive, who am I gonna dead now?
Don’t forget, in MK1 when you fight him at the bottom of the pit, he’s twice as fast as you.
Round O--
Reptile Wins....Double Flawless...Fatality.
Player: "Wait, what?!"
The new generation will never know how iconic the "Reptile" announcement is.
Without a doubt. Im 32 and I still watch this at least a few times a year, partially because of the "Reptile".
Its just cool as fuck
@@SilverSurfar finally spme1 who appreciates the art of that scene.
@@SilverSurfarme too ! 35 😂
Right, most younger kids probably started on MK11. That game was awesome, but leaving Reptile out was a mortal sin.
Я с тобой на 100 % согласен дружище…!) молодежь сыкливая, от одной мысли от драки, ссут в сапоги…! Спрашиваю!? Смотрели ли вы сериал бригада?! Они отвечают - нет!🤣
The person in the production team that included the “Reptile,” name in the audio is a genius.
i think that was in the 2nd game in 1993
@@CrazyChris622 It was. The audio is taken from the game. Steve Ritchie provided the voice of the announcer, and thus the "Reptile" audio.
I love that part just like how the characters are announced in the game
@@LegionIvoryyou hear "reptile" dratz you roll a 4! The worms and bugs roll a 21😭
@@victorpettusii9612reptile's stance in game is also untouched
One of the most intense scenes in the movie. I always get goosebumps whenever I hear the announcer say "Reptile". Good old days.
Classic I still hyped and I'm 37
Right? And the music just multiplies it into more
@@kingyo1986same exact position.
Damn Reptile came to life, didn’t monologue, didn’t ask any questions... just went straight to business.
Man is on the clock and has no time for chit chat
@@justiceistheanswer facts 🤣
So we’re not gonna talk about when reptile just becomes a ballerina halfway through the fight?
The savage nature stayed within him.
That was funny my friend lmao he owned lu easy thou...
Man this Liu Kang was absolutely crazy.
Probably the most perfect casting we will ever get.
No, the most perfect casting is the Ghanaian Mortal Kombat movie.
@@carlost856 what?? Who??
Same with Shang Tsung and Raiden.
@Vorshack agreed alot of people think raiden is asian but hes a white guy
@@matthewlugo2417
Nope in the new gameplay trailer he is an asian dude
Can we appreciate the fact that out of every fight in this movie Reptile got the closest to putting one of the protagonists in a body bag? Dude put in fucking work
He wasnt Shang Tsung's bodyguard for nothing
I'm still disappointed Reptile lost here. No way in hell Lui would have stood a chance. Main character BS lol.
The way they announce “Reptile” was perfect.. Techno music, Iconic Mortal Kombat characters, and cool catch phrases! The video games laid the ingredients to make a great movie franchise and the new one blew it!
The new one has SO much potential and totally blew it with absolute shit writing and story telling. I thought all the fight scenes were awesome, but holy shit did the storyline suck balls.
@@Firefighter5475exactly why it shouldn’t have been remade, the original 2 should have been left alone. But that’s my opinion.
Reptile is a straight savage. He wakes up and dropkicks the first dude he sees through a brick wall. DAMN!
He real life broke Liu Kang's ribs too. When he chucked him into that pillar, that crunch sound was legit Robin's (act who plays Liu Kang) ribs cracking.
Another cool thing, both Reptile and Scorpion fights weren't in the original movie cut. Test groups said there wasn't enough fightings so those two fights got added and arguably are the best fights of the whole movie.
@@RazielTheUnborn no the scorpion fight was always in the movie. Reptiles fight WAS added after dissatisfaction
@@DarkSymphony777 and it was THE best fight imo
RazielTheUnborn I too watch 616 entertainment lol
Hahaha I know right, I fucking love reptile... such a badass.
Somehow they completely captured the embodiment of what I'd expect "Reptile" to be. Ruthless, not talking, no bullshit, just go straight for the attack.
and to be named "reptile", be supernatural and somehow manage to not have a single unique trait that separates him from a random human martial artist throughout the whole fight.
the embodiment of having nothing to do with reptile, i.e. failing to belong into this movie.
@inappropriately aligned metaphorical nourishment Well Reptile did look like that in the first three MK games which this movie is based of. Sure they could use some toxic ball or sth but for me it would ruin the perfect choreography with poor CGI at that times. Moreover the directors state that they almost run out of budget because of Goro.
@@CaptainObvious0000 Tell us how you really feel.
@@CoralCopperHead I'm slightly hungry, a sandwich wouldn't hurt.
Reptile bout that life man
In 1995 i was 15, today i am 43...and still love it!
A year younger here. This movie was huge at the time and the movie theater collapsing in several of the scenes was one of the coolest experiences of my life.
I was 6 years old. Huge MK fan
Im 44 and still love this movie lol
I was 4, turning 5. Now I'm 33, still loving Mortal Kombat
I was 1 in 1995. I'm 30 and I still love this.
20+ years later the music and "Reptile" voice still give me goosebumps.
I love how for that entire fight Johnny Cage was probably just outside like, "Eh, Liu's fine, he's got this."
Kitana saw him on her way to Liu Kang
He didn't have credit to be Player 2
You must not interfere with the kombat
He makes that music in a background
@@mattriddle2516you're right.
From TV Tropes:
"This is admittedly trying to patch over a gaping hole, but who is the first person Liu Kang sees after defeating Reptile?
Kitana.
It's entirely possible that she trailed Johnny and Liu Kang when they entered Outworld, and when Liu and Reptile threw down she grabbed Johnny and told him "It's still Mortal Kombat, you can't interfere.""
Reptile is the definition of “woke up and chose violence”
he wasnt asleep
@@jonmarsh7914 you missed the joke
Thanks had a crappy day until I read your comment. Thank you
@@oldfart9153 no problem bro glad i made you day
He really just said "Reptile" then went to drop kicking mfers he a whole mood
I’m 34 now and this fight scene is still mint. REPTILE 🗣️
I'm 31 about to be 32 in 2 months I enjoyed watching this fight scene when I was a little kid
Liu Kang & Reptile hardly knew each other.
But man, was this fight ever Personal!
Yessa
Verdade, gostei muito dessa cena 🎬
I’m 34 too! When I first seen this as a kid I was soo amazed and still am 🔥
This was always my favorite fight in the movie. The pumping soundtrack plus Reptile's sheer aggression plus the fantastic choreography all came together to create several minutes of pure adrenaline.
Keith Cook playing reptile, great martial artist.
Same Here
This was my child hood
This scene was originally not in the finished movie. Test screenings came back that people wanted more fights. This was done really quick and ends up being one of the best moments in the movie.
It’s the best moment. This fight is pure adrenaline and honestly outshined the Shang Tsung fight.
I guess that explains the “disappearance” of Cage.
@@jesuslovessatan yeah, good ol reshoots
Things go well for Hollywood when they give the audience what they want.
What a f-*-ing novel concept!
@@KingCraze22it’s the best fight scene in the movie
Imagine walking into an empty building and hearing a random voice saying "Reptile"
LmAo. 😂😂😂 and now you gotta worry about someone running after you with hyper aggression for no dam reason
🏃♂️💨💨
@@hb-dc3170 hahhaha
I'd shit my pants
At this point let’s go bucko!
Petrified the whole way thru
That two-kick combo after Liu Kang gets sent through wall - So epic.
There are no words to describe how it felt to watch this as a kid in the 90s in a packed theater. My friends talked about this movie for MONTHS
Same here.
I saw this during the summer of '95, and when I got back to school, my friends and I were talking about this fight. I mistakenly thought this was Sub-Zero. My eyes weren't as good then as they are now.
Plus, I didn't hear Shao Khans voice saying, "Reptile." I think the sound drowned out the voice at the start because the speakers at the theater were very loud. I did eventually hear it when this came on TV a year later.
Good times. I miss the 90s.
I was 14 at the time, and when i tell yall the line at the theater was wrapped around the freakin corner for this movie!!! And the 1st 2 showings were sold out lol
This is epic
Love how Reptile awakes and imediately presses down-foward-X
Lmmfao god I love this comment 😂.
Is that how you unlock reptile in Mortal Kombat I can never figure out which button to push now I feel like a bone head
If you listen carefully to the scene reptile appears you hear someone say reptile Ed Boomer provide the voice for that sequence in this part of the movie listen carefully to see you hear what I refer to cuz I know that when you unlocked him that's how you knew you did so I was wasn't able to unlock him I didn't know if what button I was pushing properly
@@leonardmosca6852 Both of your komments are wrong
that would be up forward buddy
I’m pretty sure that hearing the MKII announcer voice declare “REPTILE”, and the CGI creature morphing into Reptile’s classic green ninja form like a hidden character being unlocked - and then immediately going to town on Liu Kang - was far and away the greatest moment of my childhood
YESSSSSSS
literally had to replay it, just so sick
Must have watched it a million times! Pure genius!!
Bro. That soundtrack my man 😭😭👁😭
Damn , lucky you
The absolute NOSTALGIA between the video games and hearing “Reptile” just before he comes to life is what makes this moment one of the best in cinematic history (for me at least).
Favorite fight of the whole movie, the “Reptile” name sound from the game, the costume, the straight to business vibe. I used to rewind the vhs tape over and over to watch this fight lol
Reptile can go invisible, but Johnny Cage can vanish from an entire scene.
I think he play the music outside
There are rules to Mortal Kombat. 1 vs 1. Johnny Cage probably let Liu Kang do his thing without interrupting out of respect for Mortal Kombat. Just my 2 cents.
@@6NightStalker9 he was too busy smoking a J
@@6NightStalker9 yes. MK rules are 1v1
It's a tournament after all! No one can interfere during a fight!
You know a movie is great when it unlocks a hidden character!
LOL classic
Would smoke have been overkill I wonder?
😂😂
@@bodalix18 No I don't think so! You can't go wrong with one more ninja
And that hidden character shoulda whooped Liu’s ass. Saw this in the theater in ‘95 and 26 years later it still pisses me off that Reptile didn’t murder him lol
A perfect example of when movie studios know the source material. Reptile was a hidden character in MK1 and he was treated as such in this. This whole fight feels like a hidden boss fight.
Literally the best Mortal Kombat cinematic seen in history
Лучше пока не видел
I can't express how much I love Reptile's intro to the fight. No words, no banter. Just wakes up and an immediate vibe check for Liu
"Vibe check" nice monkey speech, try to talk like an actual human instead of some conforming freak
I believe the term is "On site"
Exactly!!! 😅😅😅😅😅
1. Turns from an old CGI monster into a human ninja.
2. Has his own announcer (straight from the arcade games) present him as Reptile.
3. Makes an entrance with kickass music and immediately goes ballistic through the wall.
4. Proceeds to kick ass in one of the best action movie fights out there.
5. Gets defeated by some epic bicycle kicking.
6. Refuses to elaborate.
7. Dies, but comes back in later games and still remains a dark horse fan favourite.
*sight@@sarcher332
The newer generation of mortal Kombat players and fans will never know how iconic Reptile is in this movie. He appears as the secret fighter in this sequence just like the first game
Never thought of it like that but you are right, totally secret match unlocked there.
Wow that actually adds up
He actually was just one of Shan shungs many spies. He actually
Told Him to follow them earlier in the film.
@@mr4kgamer yes however, that time, we the audience never thought that he would joined in the fight in human form until this part.
Yeah, Reptile was never the same since mk developers killed the Reptile in human disguise idea just to make a literal reptilian creature. They literally have been killing this character like if they want him to be unpopular. Anyways Reptile still have lot of fans and thats because of first games and this movie.
I remember watching this in the movie theater and the crowd going completely ape when they hear "Reptile!' The bicycle kick was definitely the cherry 🍒 on top.
I wish i was there bro thats cool!
This was probably my favorite part from the whole movie!
I remember the moment "Reptile' was said, damn near everyone in my theater showing lost their minds. Good times.
Bro shuddup with that crap ...we both went cinema together that day half the theatre was empty and the only person who got a little excited was Rebeca who up until that point was bored as hell with the film
Further to the point we was old them and we old now. I'm like 3 years older than you so how are you 44 and coming back to watch clips like this ...fix up Angel ... 24 years later you still trying to relive fiction
@@omalone1169 I don't know who you are, but you definitely have the wrong person.
I remember it like it was yesterday, and I was 8 when I had seen it in the theatres. The entire place exploded like one big 'HOLY SH*T' moment, because up until this point, we hadn't seen him in the trailers, we all thought he was gonna be some CG lizard for the whole movie. Then the music hits, you hear the name, you see him in his traditional form and MAN we were sooooo f*cking hyped. Literally the best moment in the entire movie, and that's saying alot since there was alot of great moments in it.
Angelo Sena This guy is f**king with you. He ain’t being serious at all. But it’s really funny.
No one lost their mind, bro. Cool story though.
Hearing "REPTILE" 26 years later still gives me goosebumps. Epic moment in cinematic history!
The new movie better do this with character intros!
@@TheProphegy The new movie better have the original soundtracks,Hiroyuki Sanada as Scorpion was a very damn pleasant surprise though
The timing! The Music! It was everything!
@@EckoUntitl I really wanted Hiroyuki Sanada to Play Shang Tsung he would be the next Great version of Shang Tsung, but i'm glad he's getting Justice as Scorpion.
@@nerdygameraddicts861 Sanada is underrated actor,i'd love to see him as lead but sadly he plays B roles mostly(Last samurai,westworld,avengers etc)
This reptile was all business. Spawns and immediately puts both feet on your chest. This movie is still up there as one of my classic go-to’s!
No Mortal Kombat movie can compare to this one. To me, this movie reigns supreme over all that came after.
I agree my friend
This damn instrumental....still makes me fight 7 invisible ninjas...
I felt that in my soul🤣🤣
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You should check out the full version of this song with Traci Lords doing vocals.
Me too😅😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
omgg ,3
26 years later, and I still get the chills when the announcer says "Reptile"...The MK we deserved in 2021
I think it’s Steve Ritchie’s voice? The OG voice for Shao Khan, there’s a few interviews of him on RUclips. But yes I agree, I get chills on that part.
Reptile in 2021 was a joke.
Yessssirrr
So do I
The new one sucks ass.
DAMN! when the music says "Reptile" and he starts kicking ass! i get goosebumps with this..
Постановка боя просто идеальная, самая лучшая за весь фильм!!
согласен полностью
Согласен. Стиль боя Рептильи классный. Первые два удара вообще эпичные
Поддерживаю. Отличный бой, не такой, что один лупит другого на протяжении всей драки, тут сначала было преимущество у одного, потом у другого. Ну и то, что фирменные удары ногами Лю Кана создатели не забыли - большой плюс! Правда, Лю Кан мне всегда самым скучным бойцом казался )
ну незнаю, меня всегда бесило, рептилия просто зае***ся его бить а тому хоть бы что
Особенно эпичное представление "Reptile". Музыка и это самое "Reptile" вот уже 23 года откликается в сердце)
I always loved how there was a voice announcing 'Reptile' and the music that followed just hit you in the chest. No talking, straight up fighting for your life, and you had to do it on your own, which is why Johnny Cage didn't intervene. Their martial arts pride wouldn't let them gang up on Reptile. These 1990s directors really knew how to entertain us.
Sadly, for almost all of groups now, ENTERTAINMENT is not the goal.
Agenda pushing is
Iove it 🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥
Or maybe they just forgot that Johnny was in the script 😂😂😂
But honestly it was told by Raiden that interference will null the fight and people saying Johnny was invisible didn't pay attention to the movie.
@@DOI_ARTS nah in every encounter Earth’s fighters would face their opponents one against one. Shao Kahn being the exception.
Nothing beats that klassic announcer voice... "Reptile".
Still the best scene from this movie.
I remember being a pre-teen seeing this in the theater, and the crowd wouldn't shut up!
I miss the 90s!
Well krap. Can't disagree kause dis was a kickass fight scene! Kan't disagree with dat. It's a kwik yet intense fight, and konsiderably more entertaining than the fight against Sub Zero. I like how they did all the ninjas. Skorpion, Sub-Zero & Reptile. 👊👌
@@Ridley_Lockhart All? That's only 3 of them XD. You're forgetting Ermac, Noob Saibot, Smoke, Rain lol there's more
@@vincentdimitri169 i didn't forget i was referring to the ones in the movie. Duh. I like those other ninjas too. I had MK3 Ultimate which all of them. And the best fatalities. 👊👍
Funny that it was added to give the movie another "badass fight sequence" that the studio thought the film was lacking. One of the few times studio intervention actually helped a film.
A simpler less clownworld time
Meanwhile, Johnny out there roaming around Outworld looking for 500$ sunglasses
i don't understand why a lot of people dislike 90s Mortal Kombat movies...for me,good background music like video games,good casting/costume,good sound effect..🔥🔥
I enjoyed the first one, particularly this and the Scorpion - Johnny fight. The second is kinda trash though
The first one is really good😊, the second is a disgrace😢
In my experience people generally don't tend to dislike the original film, sure people may have some complaints on certain artistic liberties that were taken (for example, one liberty I disagree with was the severe lack of copious amounts of blood and bodily mutilation 2 of the defining traits that made MK what it is, granted such things might've caused the movie to get a higher rating and honestly I'd happily accept that if it meant more accuracy to the source material but I digress) but most can still enjoy the movie for what it is nonetheless. The sequel on the other hand imho gets tons of its hate for good reason, the quality of the sequel falls short and spits on the standard of quality set by the original.
Nobody disliked it. Stop spreading false shit.
Everybody gangsta until the modern piece of art says "Reptile"
I remember back in 1995 watching this scene at the movie theater. When the announcer said "Reptile" everybody in the movie theater went super crazy.
^_^
Gave me goosebumps reading this. I was born barely too late to be old enough to see it in theatres. Long live Reptile and Mortal Kombat
I didn't watch it in theaters but remember watching the movie after a few months later on pay-per-view or HBO back in 1995. I was like 7.
Saw it in the theater by myself at 9 years old. Made my MK2 gameplay come to life.
I was 7 and my brother was 8. Reptile was my favorite. I remember loving this movie and at the same time being furious that reptile wasn’t a Ninja! Then, this scene started to unfold and I went absolutely ballistic. The best.
I mean the vision the Director had for this movie was so perfect ! From the music choices to the fighting style oh and the back round settings to the sound effects, it was all superb!
was only 5 years old when I saw this flick and still you can't deny when you see it again, you feel the chill and hype when Reptile came on just fight and start kicking ass. Never got old and still does put the spine tingle seeing it again.
I agree this was was my favorite movie when I was 5
Just like in the game, reptile’s fight came from absolutely fucking nowhere and was awesome
Was expected actually.
I liked how the narrator say his name as he turns into Reptile
@@nathanalexandre9043shut up
Watched this in theatres in '95. Audience lost their shit at 1:41 when we heard MK2 Shao Khan voice say "Reptile", people were cheering and clapping and jumping up as it was a big surprise as he wasn't advertised any where and was kept a secret. Wish more movies were like this. Nowadays they show you everything in trailers.
Wow, awesome. How I'd like to wath this fight in theater as well!
Not every movie has it's own game ya know
I remember the exact same thing. Now they'd have 10 minute pre-release clips where you could see each scene Reptile was in, and how they did the effects for him as well, and an interview with the actor.
U lucky person u i didn't get a chance to see it in the movies
I mean all you got to do is not watch it
Say what you want about this movie, but this fight scene alone went hard. Great choreography, great music, and such a nod to the original MK game. The production team did their homework.
I still remember watching this in the theater for the first time. The audience stood and clapped when Liu bicycle kicked.
Dam Reptile front kicked Liu Kang so dam hard he went to the next stage.
HAHAHAHA!!!
Injustice in this shit XD
MK Trilogy style.

When they say "Reptile" still gives me chills. And most likely always will. Iconic!
I know omg
Johnny Cage is outside playing the music
Oh man.. I had that question for so many years (what the hell he was doing?) And here is the answer twenty years later.
But I also heard that this scene wasnt planned initially. When the whole movie was almost finished they thought it lacked memorable fights. Two iconic scenes (Johny Cage vs Scorpion and this) was shot and pasted to the movie with almost no connection to previous scenes. And they actually were right. We notice it only now
@@ma-tanicabesti wins
LMAO 😂

bee boo lmao right?
yeah Reptile is coming :D
no I was wrong, its the green goblin
gave me goosebumps when i was 6, still gives me goosebumps at age 30
Best fight in cinematic history! The “Reptile” was icing on the cake! And the bicycle kick was the cherry on top! 👌

@@Noksivsno argument, speaking from Gen Z my dude. But yes I agree there is way better fight scenes, but this was my shit back when I was a kid lol. But I get what you mean dude!
Reptile ain't here to chat, he's here to kick some ass
This scene alone worth more than the entire 2021 Mortal Kombat. Everything is correct. The characters, the music, the scenery.. the real deal.
Tho my question still stands unanswered, what was that statue that snatched the actual reptile up which it clearly is trying to get away from, wrapping him up in tendrils and he became OG reptile, then by the end it turns back into a statue and the creature was released?
*Reptile*
They failed so bad with the 2021 movie 🤦🏾♂️ Scorpion & Sub-Zero was the only good thing about the movie & they were in there for barely an hour smh.
million times better then 2021 garbage
@@RoyalCam9 I'd argue Sonya was kind of cool though too.
I always like the way reptile just got up and started kicking his ass without any dialogue or questions asked. Straight to business. Very funny.
Reptiles don't talk lol
REPTILE BRAIN
He just growls as he’s smashing away at Liu Kang 👊🏻🤜🏻😵🤛🏻 😂
I feel like they gave Reptile a much better fight scene than either Sub Zero or Scorpion.
They fucked 2021 up! Strong characters, but bad writing and editing.
Absolutely epic fight scene in the history of action movies for all time!! Every episode, every move, every look, every sound is PERFECT! JUST GENIUS!!
This fight scene goes so hard. The music is paired so well with it
Reptile- comes in fighting and skips the whole bad guy speech.
Every villain in history - he can't do that, stop him.
Lmao fact even Kang was like is he about to kick my face
F.A.C.T.S
Reptile in a 90's action movie take on the franchise : cool ninja dude that comes out swinging
Reptile in the official canon games : Last time he did any damage was when Onaga took his body, has literally been a jobber since this movie came out.
@Hd34 Hd34 Ha, that is true. 😁
😭😭😭
Can we have a moment of appreciation for seeing two trained martial artists who clearly have spent a long time working on the choreography for this scene. For seeing a movie that backs the camera off so we can see every punch and kick thrown and seeing the expressions on the fighters faces. For seeing real actors being in a real room with real props for them to interact with. This movie clearly has a passion that movies today don’t for action.
This movie did its job as far as Adaptation goes. Backed off camera shots really capture the Side View of a Fighting Game.
Very passionate
damn.
But not every kick was seen though.
Actually it would have been so satisfying to see more of the fight from that far, wide angle. Loved the scene, the lighting, the costumes and the choreocgraphy.
This movie is a gem
Loved it since it came out and still do
Especially the part where he transformed and it goes "...reptile..."
Ahead of its time...
I remember laughing hysterically in the theater at this.
Reptile was beating the brakes off Liu Kang and I loved it
Johnny Cage is busy outside remembering Liu Kang threw his suitcase into the water.
Lmao that's probably why he chilled outside
Lol
I'm in walmart cackling reading this 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol, I know right.
so true
The IMMEDIATE chest kick really set the tone for this fight. One of the greatest movie fights ever!
Is no one going to say anything about reptile getting kick in mide air?!
The music 👍🏽
I'm sure I'm not the only one but I went from loving this movie as a kid, mocking at how bad it was as a late teen / young adult, and back to loving it as a grown adult. I'll defend this movie until I die.
Подписываюсь под каждым словом 👍👍👍
i love how reptile gets a human body and IMMEDIATELY goes to work.
TBF, my cat would also immediately drop kick me after getting human form, if I ever hold her like that.
And then the Narrator immediately say his Reptile 🤣
It’s on sight...
@@jessemihayo986 lmfao xD
Agreed. They never did explain how he got a "body" though lol. Reptile did not mess around here and its BS the outcome of this fight. He gets the badass music, moveset, but because Kang is the hero. This is one of my favorite moments but also most hated. In fact every Kang victory is lol. Love Reptile's theme regardless.
The voice saying “REPTILE” makes this scene go from amazing to next fucking level 🦎🦎🦎❤️
1:42 when the in-game narrator says Reptile bro, that was hype
2:16 In an interview, Robin Shou revealed this is where he fractured a couple of ribs. Got thrown in a pillar 10 times and they used the take where he hurt his ribs and kept going. THAT is dedication to your craft and I have mad respect for Robin Shou for making this fight scene great.
Bro Robin Shou is what made mortal Kombat I know there’s a remake next year he better have a cameo because this movie here is bad ass
Nice info drop. Robin Shou will always be legendary in my book.
love all these mk trivial facta. so sick
This whole fight is badass because it almost feels like there's real animosity, like Reptile is really trying to kill him. Maybe it was a real fight caught on screen? ;)
TheXabl0 ....it’s funny there really wasn’t animosity between them but Robin Shou wanted to get the fight right and unfortunately he did the scene with like 4 broken ribs ....so really reptile was really kicking his ass for real even though he didn’t want to. Still the fight is awesome
Reptile didn’t waste no time. Dude straight up went “Reptile” and gave Liu Kang those hands.
And feet lmao
Rated E for everyone
He straight whipped his ass
this isnt wrestling
That was hilarious and he went flying to 😂
Such an amazing fast paced fight.
Reptile was such a badass in this film.
My only gripe about the fight was Reptile absolutely kicking the shit out of Lui Kang and then it only took one throw to turn Reptile into a staggering mess that turns the fight completely around.
I just feel they could of done that a little better. But still a great fight with alot of respect to Reptile as a badass.
I don't think it was JUST the throw, Liu gets his legs there. Keep in mind he got absolutely ambushed here and kicked through a brick wall, not surprising that it took him a moment to get in the swing. You also see Liu start using his anger/emotion as a motivator in the second half of the fight - keep in mind this guy is MAD as hell, he literally showed up to this tournament to kill Shang Tsung.
That's the point though. Reptile is an assassin, not a 1vs1 brawler like Lui Kang. Reptile relies on ending fights quick and almost succeeded here, but Lui outlasted him.
All these years later. This fight is still better than most cinematic battles. Thing is so fire.
Saw this in theatres back in '95 and I cannot even tell you how epic this scene was 🔥
tears, was in tears, didn't expect it, then boom pure MK fight right out the game.
"Reptile"
@@TheBlackCat1337 YES! Back in the day of no internet and no spoilers. It was awesome!
ME 2!! Nostalgia
Crowd went crazy remember like it was yesterday! Best scene in movie
Yo my dad took me to see this when I was 9 and the pop when you heard reptile was deafening. Didn’t even hear liu scream when he kicked him through a wall
Lets all be real: Liu Kang just made the *entire situation* harder on himself by accidently unlocking the Reptile secret boss fight with that throw into the statue.
Lets all be real: This Liu Kang makes the best representation of *Liu Kang* unlike the one in the 2021 movie.
@@Altered-Beast I don't like Liu Kang in the last games either. By the way, talking about the other characters, the story of turning people into robots, new era, etcetera... No.
Let's all be real. Reptile won that fight. Only plot armor saved that man from permanent damage being kicked through a brick wall, and then into what I believe is a concrete one
@@Altered-Beast 2021 Liu Kang was good, he just didn’t have enough time to redeem himself due to the fact that he was a supporting character and not one of the main characters.
@@SebChavez which is disrespectful to the character
Saw this in theaters. As a 10 year old Whippersnapper that was obsessed with Mortal Kombat. This fight scene was SO epic. I was on the edge of my seat the whole movie but this fight stuck with me the most for some reason, I remember getting excitement chills when the voice say's "REPTILE".
What an Epic battle with Reptile. Great memories from back in 1995.
If I ever hear "REPTILE" out of nowhere, I'm just going to start running
😂😂😂
Lol fast as hell huh!
I'll just have to do a bicycle kicks like Liu, problem solve
lmfaoooo
Legendary comment.
I love how Reptile doesn't waste any time after he revives. Lol
Just gets right up and double kicked the man through the wall
@@acewilliams6146 Right! Lol
Afro Shinobi Liu kang had enough of his shit at the end lmfao
Reptile only talks with his hands, feet, elbows and knees lol
@@acewilliams6146 As you do.
I always eventually find my way back here to appreciate this masterpiece. Iconic.
same :) super epic
This is actually a good representation of what it was like fighting Reptile in MK1 on the hardest difficulty. Just getting F***Ed up for most of the fight lol
This is hands down the best fight in the whole movie. The music, the fight, the "REPTILE", bicycle kick, all of it.
Agreed
the level is sick, pretty much like mk2. where is you uppercut in the end, you punch them into the acid
Couldn’t have said it any better
@@tceltic27 Actually it's the flying room level
Facts 💯
Fun Fact: In the original MK game, to unlock the Reptile fight, you must perform a double flawless victory and perform a fatality in the end. It turns out, Johnny Cage did this by beating Goro twice and performed a stage Fatality on him.
Holy shit, you're right
And he never blocked.
That said, ironically the stage fatality doesn't count as far as the game is concerned.
They keep it accurate by also having Reptile just comepletely beat your ass out of nowhere with all the speed and dmg buffs 😂
Crazy if true
Keith cooke and robin shou still the best fight and best music for the fight. It went perfect for the fight scene. I loved how keith cooke returned as subzero in the second.
I have seen this movie maybe 100+ times, this is the best intro and fight sequence for any character they have ever done IMO... Scorp and Johnny will always be a classic as well.
Everytime I hear him say “ REPTILE” I get chills and then the techno music gets me hype lol
The whole theater went nuts back in the day!
Still fucking hyped!!!🦎
1:45 And this epic somersault
Liu Kang like: Aaaa
The announcer is dope
I remember cheering when Reptile showed up. It was a complete surprise! Damn, the 90's was the best time to grow up!
Yup.. I kinda feel bad for young people nowadays, aka generation Z. All their childhood is focused on Facebook and Instragram bullshit. What a crappy way to grow up.
Sami Tabbakh a little disconnected there bud but close enough
@@samitabbakh8409 right?
@@samitabbakh8409 Dusty old fucks
@@Forossa Yup.. And so are you in few years ;)
One of the best fight scenes in movie history. The choreography of this was insanely good and smooth.
Came back to watch this fight after seeing the 2021 film. This holds up. Choreography and FX keep it grounded in and it feels real... well as much as it can for being a video game adaptation.
Fun trivia: This fight wasn't part of the original cut of the movie, neither the Scorpion x Cage in Scorpion's Lair. It was reshot and both fights were coreographed by Robin Shou (Liu Kang actor) and both were considered by far the best fights in the movie.
that is so cool
Thank you Robin Shou these were def 2 of the best fights
Yep, reptile's fight was the best of the movie.
Oh if it wasn't for these two scenes the movie would have suuuucked. They were the main events!
Even more reason to love Robin Shou. Wasn't the cast great? Bridgette Wilson, Christopher Lambert, Talisa Soto, Lindon Ashby...
Even after all these years, Liu Kang vs Reptile is still the best fight ever.
I agree. Most people think that Scorpion vs Johnny Cage scene was the best fight. But I personally think this one was the best in this film
The awesome track to this fight makes it worth it 👌
100%. The announcer saying reptile is the cherry on the cake
@@shwickid222 Agreed! When you hear that voice say "Reptile" you know it's about to go down!!! Get's me hype everytime!
I still Give to Johnny and Scorpion. Come on they threw in 2 fatalities in that one!
This is one of the best fight scenes of all-time
Still one of my favorite fights 20+ years later.
When he said “REPTILE” you knew it’s time to get busy and throw some hands 😂😂 my favorite part
He said "REPTILE" music starts, and starts goosebumps on my hands too
@@ukrainepower835 Followed by that front flip kick. Tss shit was bad 🔥
that's probably the best entrance ever than kicks him through the wall
Definitely my favorite part!
My niggatela
This movie has so much rewatch value. Cant count how many times I've seen it. Truly epic
Yea it does. Annihilation though....not so much...lol
“Those were $500(not adjusted to ‘95 $$$) sunglasses asshole!”
@@thisisyou420 annihilation has some annoying scenes but it does have its redeeming moments too, like the jax and cyrax fight was cool and the smoke and liu kang fight was sick, especially the music in that scene.
Facts
The movie? No way. The fights? Mostly meh. Johnny Vs Scorpion and Lui vs Reptile. HELL YES!!!!!
