Liu Kang - All Fight & Abilities Scenes
Part of Lord Raiden's team of champions, Liu Kang has dedicated his life to serving as a guide and counselor in Mortal Kombat for the forces of Earthrealm. A Shaolin monk, he knows everything there is to know about the tournament and has unlocked his own arcana, able to manifest and manipulate fire. Pure of heart, even when Raiden himself has lost faith in Earthrealm's forces, he still believes. He earned his dragon marking and arcana by slaying another man with the marking, one who trafficked orphaned children.
Portrayed by: Ludi Lin
Whoever did the fire animation in Lui Kang's introduction scene deserves a raise. It doesn't even look CG.
Plot twist... the actor can actually create fire like that IRL :D
@@zxKAOS1 nah he just need a green hand gautlet and he can make real fire tho
The fact that Liu Kang, and Kung Lao were just disrespected like this and them being together is a deadly fucking combo I mean come on.
I thought Kung Lao was pretty bad ass. Liu Kang though...looks like he should be in boy band
Yeah they take their characters seriously terrible writing
They killed off Kung Lao so easily
@@themusicman2005 what do you expect he is power ranger🤣🤣
Just goes to show the director and writers had no idea what they were doing
Liu kang and kung lao are easily the coolest characters in this
Right? I feel the same way.
They did kung lao dirty tho-
I definitely know who I am going as for Halloween Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat
@@HazardCerberus1942 That is a badass costume. You can't go wrong with Mortal Kombat
Actually Subzero is literally the coolest or rather coldest ❄️🥶
Liu Kang deserves better! He should’ve had his moment in this movie becoming the champion of EarthRealm.
Justin Pullin
Liu Kang became champion after beating Shang Tsung, then Shao Khan so there may be hope yet.
That’s why they’re making a 2nd movie
That’s what I want and that’s what I expected but wtf who the hell is the Character they put in the movie to the main character 🤬 I should just stick with #MKShaolinMonk
Which he has been for years and years
3:55 i love when he does the iconic bicycle kick from the game
a lot of people think that scorpion is the protagonist of mk , but the reality says that liu kang is the real protagonist alongside with raiden in history of mk
I think I would have enjoyed this movie More if Liu was the protagonist instead of Cole. Yeah I know it's treading familiar water but if it ain't broke don't fix it.
I feel like everyone must know this
@RaVeeSS the logo of the game studio not the game lol
@RaVeeSS that's literally just the cover 🤣
@RaVeeSS because he is the mascot of mk not the protagonist
I laughed out loud in the movie theater when Kabal said "He's about to get his soul sucked" 🤣😂🤣
We all knew its gonna happened 😅😅
The dialogue in this movie was so bad 😂😂
I wish they just made a Netflix series out of this Game already. The lore is so deep and it would give all the characters an actual ark
Warner Bros owns Mortal Kombat. Only HBO could make a series
@@AimForMyHead81that’s good. HBO makes much better shows than netflix (except for some exceptions of course)
Why Netflix they would only fuck it up worse at least if it’s on HBO max and given to some writers is actually probably give a shit you probably have a better Mortal Kombat show
If it was Netflix half of the cast would be black and rest lgbt, trans etc. So no thank you
Why would you want to curse Mortal Kombat with a Netflix adaptation?
I don't understand why they couldn't have just focused on Liu Kang and Kung Lao. The Shaolin Monks are more dangerous than Scorpion and Sub-Zero
True, but those two or more iconic
The biggest problem was Cole Young. I like his actor, but the role was just bad
He should have just been Johnny Cage
@@darkservantofheaven Honestly if he was just Johnny Cage. I might have been able to except the treatment of those two. Even if just a little. As Johnny Cage has proven time and time again. That when he steps up. He actually has more latent potential than even Kung Lao. Peak Liu Kang vs Peak Johnny is a bit of a toss up though. Really depends on what they are fighting for.
@@mee091000 id quite like to see that explored. Especially since in the MK9 Johnny Cage epilogue, he was said to have descendent from people who trained and bred super humans to kill gods. With Lui Kang as a fire god now, this could be an interesting match up
@@darkservantofheaven Well they are warrior race bred to fight alongside the gods. Not necessarily to kill them. I don't think full power MKX Johnny vs Liu Kang would be a particularly close fight anymore. As Liu Kang has the power of two Liu Kangs AND Raiden. Who was strong enough to like low mid diff him even while amped. Not even factoring the sands of time. As Johnny has no resistance to it unlike Raiden. When I say peak Johnny and Liu Kang. I am referring to a fully prepared and experienced Champion of Earthrealm vs a Johnny who has unlocked his latent potential and trained with the monks.
Good point. Still wondering what neatherealm has in store for mk12
It's regrettable they made him a side character, but even had they not, it's tough to beat Robin Shou. He IS liu kang for me, as Cary Tagawa is shang tsung
You're damn right CARY TAGAWA will always be SHANG TSUNG
The one thing ill say this Liu has over Robins is that he uses his fire powers much more which I really liked. They didn't have Robin use his powers nearly enough. Beyond that tho, he could use more work.
@@datboy174good point!
Despite being made into a side character, Liu Kang was still a really cool and likable character in the movie.
He is not Liu Kang, he is lost member of BTS. Real Liu is Robin Shou.
@@scorpionkobra grow up
@@eduardosalinas7872 If you are trying to defend BTS then you havent grow up yet
I actually prefer him as a side character. Playing the games, seeing the OG movies back in the day, it was sort of nice to see this from someone else's perspective.
@@scorpionkobra fr even tho robin shou's Liu Kang barely uses his powers, he can still kick the shit out of this liu kang.
Throws a fireball. "I'm not your enemy" LMFAO
This Liu Kang may not be Robin Shou, but he certainly gives us that Fire Effort.
How is lui kang a side character in a mortal kombat movie is hilarious to me
Really shit is dumb
threw a fireball in your face
also Liu Kang : i''m not your enemy
That soldier falling for the leg sweep lmao "put a shirt on, magic mike." Too funny
Poor Liu Kang was downgraded because those writers wanted to push their own made up trash named Cole Young instead of focusing on the main hero of the franchise! I do however love how accurate the casting and costume were(actually except Mileena all the others were very well cast)!
terjerumus
I hate that this movie exists. Look what they did to Kano as well. He's supposed to have his laser beam from his cybernetic eye plate put in surgically. In this garbage, he gets his eye laser from getting too mad during a meal. Fuck this movie. Also, Nathan Jones was a horrible casting choice for Reiko. I'm not even gonna bother ranting about Cole Young who was never in any game.
@@UltimateShadow10 the movie is indeed a failure! All they needed to do is just stick to the original material
Thank you!
Cole Young could’ve been featured later on within the series yet he becomes the main character in the movie? Nothing against the Cole but I wish they develop his character more.
@@emari9826 Cole shouldn’t have been featured at all
Ludi Lin is actually great as Lui Kang but so sad he's not the main character of the movie
Hes Terrible as liu kang way too small and skinny
He’s an awful Liu Kang. He just doesn’t have that it factor to pull it off
These 2 comments here are dumb af lmao
Dumbest decision they dont understand he the main mc of the damn series
@@mando11488Bro was freaking jacked, did you not see him when he fought Kano
0:00
Liu Kang's intro is awesome.
Lets be honest, Cabal was probably one of the best parts about this movie
Yeah he was. His character was awesome for a villain
@@sarahibbshibbs1138 Right!? Every time he was on screen it was cool because the character was just a badass and believable villain
He cracked me right up! "did you see a guy down there? complete fucking asshole. Answers to Kano" …"yea he's the reason I live in an iron lung. He's a lowlife, piece of shit, scum bag. You're gonna love him"! lmfao!!
“He’s about to get his soul sucked”😏
"Oh, I'm sorry, did I cut ya?"
the
Mortal Kombat movie was amazing the producers and people who helped create the movie are so talented
I personally loved it
Liu Kang and Kung Lao Are The Greatest Duo of All Time
Kole yeng: main character
Liu kang: side character
Poor Liu kang
Liu Kang and Kung Lao might be young but they are the core for Earthrealm champions. They made them into side characters
They should've just made Liu Kang the main character like how MK is supposed to be.
He better be the jacked main character out for blood in the next movie or I'm starting a riot.
Yea you and me about to riot my friends. The 2nd movie has been confirm and they still push for Cole Young as the main protagonist with Johnny Cage seem to have a big role as well...they really just shaft Liu Kang in this live action version
@@shawziiz5031 they have awoken the dragon 😤
“Yeah yeah put a fucking shirt one” I feel like that would be my line if I ever got beat in a fight. 😂😂
I found Ludi Lin’s portrayal of Liu Kang pretty enjoyable imo but I still like the Robin Shou version
He really bulked up for the next moral kombat movie, that they are currently filming. And he is there from the day one, still shooting.
I really think he's gonna be 1 of the leads (if not THE lead this time) in the sequel
Mortal Kombat dont need a movie but a series that'll explore the lore, with lots of seasons and episodes and introducing/adding lots of characters, the potential is huge with better writers, directors, producer's and loyal fans, we'll hopefully get it one day😢.
It’s like ed boom walked into a barbershop and said “fuck my shit up”
Kabal would've never laid a hand on the real Liu Kang
Robin shou was such a good Liu kang because he was also a great shit talker, as well as one of the greatest fighters to back it up! The scene where he throws cages luggage in the water is still fantastic lol they made him too stiff in this film
90's version was born and raised in the US. This version is more like MK9's, who was raised in the Temple, which is probably why he's more formal.
Kano did a short hop exactly like it is done in MK11 lol
His fatality was great
Lamp’s easily my favorite character purely on comedic value alone.
Liu Kang and Kung Lao are always the best characters, I thought the movie was amazing, the fighting and everything but the story was a bit of uhh, but still very good movie can’t wait for the next one ☺️.
They did my boy Kung Lao dirty by killing him off so quickly. They did Liu Kang dirty by creating a "original OC do not steal" that is basically just him but shitty.
I really liked Liu Kang and Kung Lao in the movie. This is one of my favorite movies. Even though it's super violent it's good. I have to cover my eyes a few times in the movie.
Next movie, the real heros better have their spot back
This movie was not that bad but definitely could've been better, if there's a sequel i hope it'll have better writers, lore and show more character backstories and growth.🤞🏼
I want the old Liu Kant back he was badass
Liu Cunt 😭😂😂
Kabal looks awesome
Awesome
I like how they did the sweeps the same way ppl cheat on the game. Now throw those dramatic uppercuts in
Love the dragon fatality
Why cant they give liu kang the accurate battle cries lol
I guess it's because of Bruce Lee's trademark, I don't know
Kung Lao is an accurate character
I kinda like that he’s still developing as a fighter in combat in this one. Gives him somewhere to go in the next film to emerge as the chosen one.
the casting was spot on
“Fatality… For Kung Lao.”
😆 I can see why Phelous laughed at this
Liu Kang is suppose to be the main character of this movie, who’s Cole Young? He’s not even part of the game. It really would’ve been nice if we saw a Liu Kang vs Shang Tsung fight.
I think Cole young is Shirai Ryu in my theory
They love doing this smh same thing with resident evil like who tf is Alice. They love ruining story lines
Don't worry Save Liu Kang for MK2
@@chaosandstuff3519 Alice is awesome
@@drakedy2145 Exactly. They are building up Liu Kang. I liked it
Kano was 100% the best fucking part of this movie. If they make a sequel, I do hope he gets pop back in again.
This very first scene and everything after it feel like from two different movies. Sunset shot and elevating epic music promised the second coming of kung-fu Jesus, and the rest was like B-movie at best. Id wish the rest of the movie was like that introduction scene.
3:55 that nostalgic bicycle kick
Kabal is so mean when he said “want me to slow down a little”
the tournament didnt even started yet but kung lao is already died SMH
Those who made this movie made the same mistake as those who made the first animated Mortal Kombat Legends movie (Scorpion's Revenge) in not giving Raiden and Liu Kang the prominence that was rightfully theirs.
They should learn from the Mortal Kombat video game series and movies in the 90s.
Not to mention the Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate video game and the second Mortal Kombat Legends animated movie (Battle of the Realms).
Kung lao was the real mvp of this film hope they bring him back
Lmaoo this is like nerfing the shit out of goku in any dragon ball movie, smh
I thought goku was always nerfed, until the last 5 minutes of the story where he pulls something out of his arse that he could of done 20 episodes ago to win the fight, but waited until everyone is dead to use it so they can use the dragon balls to bring everyone back because they have to work the balls into it some how
@@kaylariley9941 that's a good point its always like that
How did I, the best, missed this MK movie. ..lol
Sifu Ku^
This movie was so underrated by MK fans. They did the game justice with fights and moves, followed most of mk storyline, and had decent actors. I was disappointed in fans tbh.
I could not disagree more
- Liu Kang is a side character instead of main protagonist.
- The Chosen One thing for Liu Kang seem doesn't even exist in this version.
- Raiden is soulless.
- No dynamic father/son or even mentor/pupil relationship between Liu Kang and Raiden. Here Liu Kang act like a total servant to Raiden.
- Kung Lao got killed too early. The tournament wasn't even begin. And he was killed by Shang Tsung, not Shao Kahn.
- Kung Lao also seem to portray stronger than Liu Kang. Liu Kang really look a bit weaker in this version.
- Mileena got introduced first before Kitana, completely ruined the whole mystery about Mileena.
- Mileena is also soulless, not a hyper/seducing like her game counterpart.
- The entire lore of Scorpion and Sub-Zero got butchered. In this version, both of them live during the edo period instead of modern days. Because of this, Sub-Zero basically live thousand of years. Sub-Zero aka Bi-Han actually kill Scorpion aka Hanzo instead of Quan Chi. No Quan Chi at all in this. So no manipulation between the hatred of Shirai Ryu and Lin Kuei. Instead of all Shirai Ryu got kill, Scorpion child survive thus lead to the biggest mistake of this version of MK.
- Cole Young, this is the biggest mistake of this MK. He was an original character, a descendant of Scorpion and was make as the main protagonist.
- Because of this Cole Young character got make, Liu Kang got shaft into a side character, Scorpion become nothing but an avatar to be summon and no Johnny Cage role in this movie.
- Speaking of Scorpion become an avatar, he really just appear in the last act of the movie.
- Scorpion was summon to earth because of Cole's blood summon him. Really no such thing as Quan Chi in all of this.
- Shang Tsung can casually enter Earthrealm and enact a mini-war against Raiden's warrior. In the game lore, all of this are forbidden to do before the tournament.
- All of their power come from Arcana. Even the tech stuff power from Kano, Jax and Sonya is also create because of this Arcana. This is soo bullshit and funny. Is like them become sort of like X-men or something.
- Like Kung Lao, Goro also got killed too early. He was killed before the tournament even happen. Goro was major character in the very first tournament as he is the undisputed champion and someone that Liu Kang's must face. And he was killed by Cole Young.
- Goro also soulless. Instead of warrior-like figure in the lore, here he seem like a generic huge "orc" style monster depicted in many western fantasy movie.
So...how all this make the game justice and followed "most" of it storyline??? Fun fact, the team behind this movie, I forgot either the director, producer or writer...they really state the reason why they create this Cole Young character is because they doesn't want to make white guy as the main protagonist...Who the heck is Liu Kang to do them??? Liu Kang is clearly not a white guy character. Dude was asian...the only thing good about this movie is indeed the actors, they all good cast...well except for Mileena...she should have been cast as Jade instead
I’m so disappointed how they made Ludi Kin’s Liu Kang as just a side character 😤
I think the writers still respected the cousins. The only 1 on 1 matches they lost were against guys that were honestly a bit above their level
This guy plays Liu Kang better than the guy in the old MK movie and whoever played him in MK9 and X
I agree!
Aside from acting the problem with this mk movie was that they didn’t build up the powers. They just felt like big words without action behind them.
*shoots fireball to random stranger*
"I'm not your enemy"
Um excuse me ?! Did no one noticed this ?! “ want me to slow down a little “ 😳
2:53
The fk you talking about
JEEEZ! Can this guy get any more jacked?
Can you do mcu vulture next? With the second pair of wings that he uses near the end of spiderman homecoming? Would be cool if you could 🙏
They did my man's dirty in this movie
They better focus on Liu Johnny and Sonya next season. And give us Cole as less as possible.
He’s gotta get killed off first min of the movie like what they did to Johnny in mk 2 smh
Season? It's a movie...
@@MK-vi2cm yes I realized that after writing 😂 but then didn't edit .
Movie should’ve dropped Cole as a character and focused on Liu Kang and King Lao as the main protagonists. With Sub, Scorpion, and Raiden as the side protagonists and antagonist. Didn’t understand why Shang Tsung was introduced so quickly either.
this movie is quite cool but the fact that we know it could be much better makes us quite sad
He was my favourite in the video game
A very stark reminder of how much I appreciate the first Mortal Kombat film. Hands down better than this
Not even close.
Sub zero being killed by a bucket of water
Scorpion getting killed early in the film
Scorpion with a snake coming out of his hand lol
Kano dies in the dumbest way
Goro dies via hide and seek
It's just nostalgia talking
@@jimbeam2299and reptile?
We all know the robin shou Liu Kang wouldn't take no shit or be so weak like the new one
Well that because the director and writer at that time know and appreciate Liu Kang role in the game. You know damn well even if Robin Shou become Liu Kang again, if the director and the writer of this one take control, yea screw even the Robin Shou version too...
This movie felt like a prelogue and the tournament didn’t happen, hopefully it’s in the next movie
You can tell that the director was main kabal XD
Nah his main was Kano :D
More like Sub-Zero
I like Ludi but the script for this movie did him dirty. I can't wait for an improved Liu Kang in MK2 now that Ed Boon is on board. And Ludi atm looks way more like Liu Kang than ever before, he's gotten buff and shredded as hell.
3:56 Bicycle Kick
This scene 😍😩2:18 to 2:31
Liu Kang got severely nerfed.
Fun fact about this film after the test screening. A lot of viewers were actually pissed off that Johnny cage wasn’t in the film. So they had to do a quick reshoot for the ending credit and have the character Cole go seek out Johnny cage in Hollywood.
Robert Shou would always be my Lui Kang. if only they have write that second story in a good way. we would still have him as Lui Kang
Bro used the fatal blow 4:00
why producers always gotta ruin everything?! bro just give the money and let the writers do their job. nothing against Cole Young, I mean, he even looks cool but c'mon Liu Kang is supposed to be the main hero in that first phase. That movie downgraded him so much. It's a shame because that's the best MK movie ever made. Everything was so well done... A made up main characters just doesn't make sense. Yall could've added Cole but not as the main character.
Kano was literally the only entertaining thing about this movie
Lui kang is the main character of mortal kombat period hearing hr dies in second movie if that happens im out
This movie had a lot of continuity errors but I liked it
It was entertaining
They really made it like the game and had liu kang spam sweep kicks 😭😭
3:28, it is Kabal
Kabal must be like: Man, this bullshit again.
I think the cast is perfect, but the execution is questionable. Liu Kang should have been the main character, he's always been the main character of MK and they should've just made Lewis Tan as Kenshi.
that guy should be kano forever
Liu Kang is the best character. He played Zack the black ranger in Power Rangers 2017 movie.
nice
Go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang
Casting is okay, but this characterization of disciplined and meditating Liu Kang was good.
Worst part of the movie was the OC. The only OC that really matters is Shujinko (lol if you know Japanese)
MK: Deception tied Shujinko adeptly into the mythos of the series, in a sense, good guy Scorpion doesn't make sense with out Shujinkos story added to the mix.
Liu Kang firebending
