I found this very entertaining! You have gained a subscriber. I look forward to more. This was the very first movie that I saw more than once in the theater (3 times, in fact). It truly was an awesome experience! When I get a hankerin', I put on the theme song and yell "MORTAL KOMBAT!" at the top of my lungs until The Wife tells me to "Knock it off!" Then I tell her that "It has begun!" and she starts going on and on about how I'm driving her insane, but now it's time for the roll call and I can't stop now...
Robin Shou is the one and only Liu Kang. Not that guy Brian Tee. Not the black Power Ranger. Robin Shou is THE Liu Kang and he is the only one I think of when Liu Kang comes to mind.
Not true, he's just the Liu Kang actor that was chosen to play the character at the time when the movie was made. If it wasn't Robin, it would've been someone else.
Instead of “Use the element that brings life,” Kitana should have said “Use the element that melts ice… which is fire… which you’re supposed to be able to shoot but don’t do so at any point in this movie.”
This movie is solid. It actually has heart. The actors are obviously having a good time, but then can actually drop in to the characters with sincerity. Man that scene with Lui Kang and his brother at the end, can actually choke you up! His brother has that wise because he has died vibe too, fukn perfect!
So many good things about this movie. I loved the part where Shang Tsung had a bloody nose, and it was the only blood in the movie, and Tsung looked offended by that little blood. Felt like a commentary on how this was a PG13 movie and also about how people over reacted to the blood in the franchise.
The 2nd half of the fight in hell with johnny and scorpion and the reptile fight were not even in the original test screening. They were added in, and they made the movie fantasitc.
I agree and have ALWAYS felt that reptile was the best part of the movie. From his name being said once he becomes human to the actual fight to the end of the fight!!
The only really serious injury that happened was to linden ashby during the scorpion fight linden was kicked so hard in the kidney that he peed blood for 3 days straight and it was while wearing a protective pad on his back and somehow chris casamasa kicked him in the wrong place
Here's a plot point AND some character growth for Johnny they missed, and it would have just been one line from Shang to Johnny: "you're no fighter, you're an actor; YOU aer here to lose Earth Realm." THEN it edits to the start of Johnny vs Goro (with Johnny looking worried, a little scared, but determined NOT TO LOSE = ACTUALLY FIGHT.
I LOVE THIS FILM!!!!!!!!!!!!! You forgot the part that's it's SOOOOOO COLOURFUL...... It's a beautiful movie to watch. Also, if they could have kept the quality as high as it was, I could watch this if it was 4 hours long!!!!!!!!!!
me and my pops watched this and annihilation after several years and was expecting a shit show but we were strongly corrected. their was alot of imagination and they had a great cast
As far as I know everyone did their own stunts including injuries linden ashby got injured during the scorpion fight and robin shou bruised 3 of his ribs while being thrown into the pillar during the reptile fight
While I never got to see this in the theater I did at some point that year and it was awesome I saw it on cable TV and loved it the martial arts was great and the comedy was great when it was needed and Bridget wilson was quite something as sonya
This Liu Kang is the best Liu Kang we have had in every media. What a total badass
Yeah, I really can't imagine a better Liu Kang
Out of ALL the Mortal Kombat movie reviews on this platform, THIS ONE IS ENTERTAINING AF!
Liu Kang was protected by plot armor cause Reptile won that fight.
Maaaaaaan, right!?

Thats really cool, I bet this movie would be amazing to see in a theater.

This made me realize that Paul Anderson HAS made a movie that I do enjoy, non-ironically.
Still the best video game movie of all time 🙌
"While they're celebrating, some shit starts happening in the sky"
I don't know why this line made me laugh so hard 😂
Amazing review!
I like when Liu kang gets mad and just starts beating down on reptile it's robin shou

You’re entertaining af
I appreciate the kind words

Well I'm glad they added it lmao that shit was peak
“Who gives af, 💩s happening” SUBSCRIBED based off that line alone 🤣🤣🤣 this man is a treasure!
First time I’ve seen your vid. Awesome lol. Going to sub now. You def have to make more like this.
This was great. Annihilation perhaps?
I agree and have ALWAYS felt that reptile was the best part of the movie.
From his name being said once he becomes human to the actual fight to the end of the fight!!
“Get down here!!” Is a line I will use when the moment calls for it.
And is also a line that should be referenced by Scorpion in a future game
Love this video annihilation is a flawed masterpiece in my eyes especially as a kid growing up i just love all mortal kombat overall
1995>2019
I NEED YOU TO SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!
Dude you're funny af 😂😂 u understood the assignment 👏🏾👏🏾
Great video! 😂💯
Cameron diaz was the original choice for sonya blade but during filming she injured her wrist so she was recast
That was Jax
Where do you get these guys!! Haha I love this movie
The only really serious injury that happened was to linden ashby during the scorpion fight linden was kicked so hard in the kidney that he peed blood for 3 days straight and it was while wearing a protective pad on his back and somehow chris casamasa kicked him in the wrong place
You forgot to mention that Robin Shou broke ribs while being throwed on the pilar while fighting Reptile
@FekalistaGrzybowory-lz8lh I did thanks for the reminder haha 😂

Small channel with really great content
You will NOT be small for much longer, pal
Thankyou for the kind words
Lui kang shang tsung sonya and katana were all perfect perfect looking for the rolls theyre who i see when i imagine them in real life
One of the best original soundtracks EVER ☠️🖤
Subscribed! Fantastic content, hope you glow up big time!
Johnny is the ONLY 100% conversion of the game in this movie = he did TWO special moves from the game, did AN ACTUAL fatality AND a FREINDSHIP. 😅😅
it kinda makes me mad, like George can go back in and McClunky the hell out of Star Wars but someone can't go back and touch up Reptile???
This movie was flawed, but it kicked ass regardless. Street fighter made this movie look like a masterpiece.
Great stuff I’m subscribing
I LOVE THIS FILM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You forgot the part that's it's SOOOOOO COLOURFUL......
It's a beautiful movie to watch.
Also, if they could have kept the quality as high as it was, I could watch this if it was 4 hours long!!!!!!!!!!
Greatest MK review
Great review. Strangely, the newer version was worse in every way.
me and my pops watched this and annihilation after several years and was expecting a shit show but we were strongly corrected. their was alot of imagination and they had a great cast
He always had a weird alive lizard thing and no fire as powers. It wasn't till like mk9 that he got an actual kunai.
Well, of course it would be "Death Race 2000" and "The Warriors".
"Phantasm".
This and Street Fighter are my favorite video game movies (the Street Fighter is also amazing)
As far as I know everyone did their own stunts including injuries linden ashby got injured during the scorpion fight and robin shou bruised 3 of his ribs while being thrown into the pillar during the reptile fight
More recaps please lol too fuckin funny
While I never got to see this in the theater I did at some point that year and it was awesome I saw it on cable TV and loved it the martial arts was great and the comedy was great when it was needed and Bridget wilson was quite something as sonya
Best MK film .. Best Soundtrack , that year..
6:31 Facts , str8 dog water.. 😂
12:05 Exactly 😅
I like this movie the best of all mks
Do annihilation now lol
Street Fighter was better. Raul absolutely killed that movie.
I've never actually seen the street fighter movie but I've heard it's fun might have to check it out
Only flaw is Art Lean getting washed
MORTAL FUNBAT!!!
Morda w Kombajn!
So Bad at kcking
