i saw this film at the cinema the same day a i saw lose in space ( the new one and with gary oldman ) . by comparison and lose in space be high art full of deep metaphysical dilemma . mk representa be terrible . i love the mortal kombat game and and be pleased to see that mk the movie be good than street fighter ii the movie . sure and it be a light on film and but it have some moment and i spend most of my time laugh at the unintentionally bad bit . mk representa make mk the movie look sophisticated . the first five minute basically drop a piano on the head of the first movie new bad guy and johnny cage dy and new hero appear and minimal explanation . from then on you have a sub standard martial art film pack full of cheap costume on cheap actor follow a cliched script . i know there not a lot of narrative you can squeeze out of a fight computer game and but surely the writer could have try a little harder to make something work . have go to the movie with a guy who do not play the game and i have to explain what the hell be go on for the first half ( like why be that guy fight him . ) and give up after that . that say and this movie contain the most unintentionally hilarious moment i have ever see on film . towards the end of the movie and raiden move from have flow straight white hair to a peroxided flat top . there a brief mention of raiden get a haircut and and that it . it make absolutely no sense and and think about it still make me laugh .
