THATS ENOUGH!

So we are taking it back a bit today! Remember this song!?


OH YEAH! MORTAL KOMBAT! One of the most epic video games of our time! Mortal Kombat became an icon in the video game world and remains one to this day. BUT, did you know there are TWO Mortal Kombat movies?

Everything about them screams "This movie suck!" yet at the same time you can't help but think "This is the best thing I've ever seen!" Acting, terrible. Graphics, dear lord terrible. Scrip, god help us. Nothing about this movie is well done, but they do bring to life the most iconic video game characters ever such as the trio of Scorpion, Reptile, and Sub-Zero.

Mortal Kombat is so bad that even the fighting looks cheesy! How does someone do that!? Ironic enough, one character, Johnny Cage, is an actor who complains about other actors bad acting...yeah.

You also get to hear the best lines ever in video game history such as "Prepare to fight!" "Finish him!" "Get over here!" and "MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!"

The first Mortal Kombat movie was released in 1995 and focused around the character of Liu Kang. Liu joins together with the thunder and lightning god, Lord Raiden, to overthrow a war lord who steals the souls of fighters that lose. This war lord just happened to steal the soul of Liu's brother, but that doesn't matter at all.


The second Mortal Kombat movie, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, was released in 1997 and leaves off where the first movie ends. This movie is how the good guys try to stop Shao Kahn and his army from overthrowing the earth. Shao Kahn how ever has NO relation to Lord Rayden....(yes the spelling changed for some reason) and they are NOT brothers....


Not to mention, in the second movie, though 60% of the characters are the same...only two of the actors are the same! New actors were brought in for this films for reasons I cant't seem to understand.

So again, all together two horrible movies. But if you want to see a video game come to life and have fun with it, WATCH MORTAL KOMBAT!
