1:31:00 - There is no shame is being emotional at the end of Mortal Kombat lol. Halcyon on and on is a beautiful song and that ending was just perfect with Liu getting to say goodbye to his brother for a final time. Just perfect. - Let's go home.
51:04 Shang Tsung's island is in-between realms. So they are not on Earth and not in Outworld (they do go to Outworld at the end). That's why Sonya's compass was going crazy and the radio stopped working when they arrived to the island, because they weren't on Earth anymore
26:42 Kung Lao was in MK2. He wasn't in the movie but they made a reference to the Original Kung Lao (aka The Great Kung Lao). There was a live action TV series called Mortal Kombat Conquest in 1998 about The Great Kung Lao which takes place 500 years before the 1st movie. The series was supposed to lead up to the events of the first movie but unfortunately was cancelled after the 1st season
I love watching the progression of the guys backgrounds. Tim obviously set the bar high with his amazing room and lighting. But Andy and Bless color matching the series now is 🔥 Also Nick has a couch 🙌
Raiden was actually spelled Rayden in the home console versions of the game up until MK 4. It was spelled Raiden in the arcade versions. So they actually spelled it correctly for the movie at the time.
To be fair though... Tim was also shocked about them not utilizing more of the roster when there was really only 2 Mortal Kombat games at the time of productions and they basically exhausted the entire earthrealm roster, except Kung Lao and I guess Jax who was in that one scene. Tim is not the best historian lol. The weird part is he is totally aware of Mortal Kombat 3 not being out yet.
MK: The Movie is perfect to me. Cheesy and totally B-movie, but it’s legitimately one of the better martial arts films ever and easily the best videogame adaptation of all-time. The cast has a good time with it, especially Cary as Shang Tsung and Linden as Cage. The effects for their time, except for Reptile, were solid and the soundtrack is iconic. This movie is pure 90s gold and I watch, at least, once a month. Endlessly rewatchable.
Uwe Boll did not direct Dead or Alive. It was Corey Yuen. Uwe Boll has never made a movie as good as Dead or Alive which is saying something since Dead or Alive is not very good.
Pray for these poor boys next week...I don't think they understand just how bad Annihilation actually is. 40 years, and it's still the one and only movie I have ever walked out of.
@@TheAndyCortez I will say that, after you guys watch it, it's worth doing a little digging because there are a handful of great yt vids and written pieces about just what the hell happened. The whole thing is a fascinating disaster.
Watched it back a few weeks ago, awesome nostalgia, probably my most watched movie of all time! Last night I started Annihilation, and I had to turn it off... oh man, it's worse than I remembered. Lol.
The reason this movie succeeded is because it stayed true to the source material. The plot is dumb, the lore makes no sense, and the characters are cardboard cut-outs. This is exactly what Mortal Kombat was in the 90s and I love it!
THAT. INTRO.
Yeah...
So good
So damn good
I watched the movie before this In Review and as soon as the theme started I knew the intro for this was gonna go so hard
We need Greg-go with four arms, holding 4 Portillos !
And Portillo should have glowing eyes and hat like Raiden.
BEST. FRIENDS. WIN!! That’s it. That’s the winner!
That INTRO is tooo fire🥵
My condolences in advance for when you have to watch Annihilation.
Andy's Raiden impression is definitely the best he's ever done lmao
THAT INTRO 🔥🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪💪💪👏👏👏👏👏. GOD DAM I wasn't ready for that
By far my favorite intro! That was amazing
Man the character stats in the intro are gold :D
I just gotta say, I love all the movies and franchises we gotten in Review. Keep up the amazing work guys.
the content never stops gotta love it
I told myself I would rewatch MK vicariously through this episode but I’m 20 min in and now I need to pause and re-see this for myself. Brb
1:31:00 - There is no shame is being emotional at the end of Mortal Kombat lol. Halcyon on and on is a beautiful song and that ending was just perfect with Liu getting to say goodbye to his brother for a final time. Just perfect.

that's so creepy!
Blessing is a real FGC fan. You can tell by the bobbing and weaving he was doing in that intro, perfect form. Good job blessing!
26:42 Kung Lao was in MK2. He wasn't in the movie but they made a reference to the Original Kung Lao (aka The Great Kung Lao).

Weird, that Katana says the Emperor won't be happy if he cheats. When in the next movie, the first thing the Emperor does is break the rules.
Nothing tops Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa's line delivery in this movie.
Just so we're clear this is not Parliament-Funkadelic George Clinton.
I was just thinking about that hahaha. I was like ‘SURELY not...right??’
the intros just. get. better. It just doesn't stop and I'm here for it.
My friends and I still do Kano in his Cockney accent saying "Hello baby, do you miss me?" :D
Please, please, PLEASEEEEE 🙏🏽. For next week’s episode, you MUST have either Andy or Nick give us their impressions of the Raiden “hair flip” scene 😂
This has been one of my wish-list In Review’s. Thank you ALL 🔥
What a god damn intro!
as soon as i saw the title i knew the intro would ROCK
I love watching the progression of the guys backgrounds. Tim obviously set the bar high with his amazing room and lighting. But Andy and Bless color matching the series now is 🔥
Also Nick has a couch 🙌
One of the best intros, but STILL cannot beat the Transformers in Review Intro. I’m starting to think it will never happen
Killed it with the intro guys! 👌🏾
Holy crap!!!! BEST. INTRO. EVER!!!
i have been bouncing around like an asshole all morning the intro SLAPS
TMNT in review as well as 3 Ninjas in Review (lol maybe throw Surf Ninjas in there for good sport)
0:08 HAHA, Height: 4' 11". Nick GOT GOT!
That intro = automatic like
THAT INTRO WAS FLAWLESS
Congrats on making your way to the info tab of the videos Cameron and Carter, well fucking earned.
That MK intro is by far the best one yet!!!!!
Daddy nicks hair looking fresh
That song is one of the most iconic hype songs to bless this planet
Since the new movie has been delayed a week, can you guys do Scorpion's Revenge between Annihilation and the new one?
Kitana: Use the element which brings life.
Liu: Water!
Kitana: What? No. Carbon you idiot. Did you not pay attention in high school?
I wonder if you just randomly sing the Rank those abs theme in front of nick he will just say: "Ladies and gentlemen....''
I'm not even gonna cap that intro was fire af
YOU KNOW THE RULES, and so do I.
"I don't know what material this is, but it is hard ass material" hahaha
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa is the best part of this... He goes so hard the whole time with his acting. What a ridiculous movie!
Raiden was actually spelled Rayden in the home console versions of the game up until MK 4. It was spelled Raiden in the arcade versions.
So they actually spelled it correctly for the movie at the time.

Haven't watched it yet but the intro meant an immediate like
Nice haircut, Nick. Looking sharp!
Yoooooo! That intro!!!
Amazing Intro!
BEST INTRO EVER?!
This is my favourite of all KF intros
BEST INTRO EVER
Loved the immediate Veronica Vaughn reference
Ive waited so long for this

MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAAT!!
A great episode, Andy killed it specifically hahah
Oh my god, absolutely pissed my pants at that intro.
Intro is HYPE
Where can I find the schedule for MK in review? I have looked on Reddit and both the Kinda Funny twitter as well as individual KF members' twitters.
29:48 Andy rocking out
I love this intro!
Easily Nick's best plot so far!!
That intro is awesome !!!!!
Uwe Boll did not direct Dead or Alive. It was Corey Yuen. Uwe Boll has never made a movie as good as Dead or Alive which is saying something since Dead or Alive is not very good.
How much do I have do donate to get a Balls of Fury addendum to this In Review??
Best In Review intro ever. 4 '11 Hahahaha
this is my favorite thing ever. MK for life. thanks guys
The shang tsung character in balls of fury was played by Christopher Walken... right?
I popped for the Mortal Kombat theme song EVERY time, what a good bad movie
Loving it already!
That Intro was fucking hype. Had to watch it 3 times.
Blessing's mask is awesome. I hope he uses that when he leaves the house
Blessing got that Nigerian standing on the couch in the vip section beard.
This intro 😭🔥
I demand more Blessing on Kinda Funny (Prime) content
Pray for these poor boys next week...I don't think they understand just how bad Annihilation actually is.
40 years, and it's still the one and only movie I have ever walked out of.
Hahahaha oh noooo
@@TheAndyCortez I will say that, after you guys watch it, it's worth doing a little digging because there are a handful of great yt vids and written pieces about just what the hell happened. The whole thing is a fascinating disaster.
Best intro ever
Any chance of the crew doing the Mortal Kombat animated film; Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge
Do you think that since the scorpion hand thing was alive in this movie it had a name? How could it not be named “Hand Job”.
Now I want a Scorpion sat nav voice
Watched it back a few weeks ago, awesome nostalgia, probably my most watched movie of all time! Last night I started Annihilation, and I had to turn it off... oh man, it's worse than I remembered. Lol.
In terms of live action movies based on fighting games, this and the Street Fighter movie are the top two IMO. The new MK looks dope though.
BLESSING! Love that mask.
The reason this movie succeeded is because it stayed true to the source material. The plot is dumb, the lore makes no sense, and the characters are cardboard cut-outs. This is exactly what Mortal Kombat was in the 90s and I love it!
The Secret Delight for me were the set pieces. They looked great.
Greatest theme song in cinema history
Now I really want them to review the double dragon and street fighter movie.
I just wanna say Nick saw this in 1995, I was just a year old lol 😂
I was 3 and a half months away from being born 😂
Is it funny that I pictured Cameron Kennedy's name with two Ks?
Kamron Kennedy 😅
I could have sworn that they confirmed that the OG theme is gonna be in the movie, but I might be mistaken
You are correct. The filmmakers did say the theme will be in the film.
holy shit the intro
How has 007 in review not happened yet?! You'd have content for a year.
The best bad good movie ever
i want the intro to be a real game now
fuckin love that intro
Man. Andy's so cool now.
Throw me in the pile of people who are commenting on how awesome that intro is
Anybody else have to pause for a min when Tim said George Clinton did the soundtrack to check and see if it was THE George Clinton?
