Holy shit Mortal Kombat 2021 was forgettable. It's every Current Year cliché rolled into one big generic time-wasting package.

Remember when they made that dark Power Rangers fanfilm years ago as kind of joke because everything had to be grimdark and edgy, then movie studios decided it wasn't a joke and made a real grimdark Power Rangers movie? That's the same mindset behind Racyst Kombat.

Gay Blows Men and Scottish Plinker hate the 95 movie and hate you for liking it, but it's a masterpiece compared to this bullshit. The old movie was fun and entertaining; this is not fun and not entertaining. Instead of a grand MORTAL KOMBAT techno entrance, it's just some cliched boring family scene with dramatic music before the title appears over black. Characters are introduced with absolutely no energy; they just kind of show up in the scene then quickly disappear out of the scene. The fight scenes are the same overchoreographed bullshit with a thousand moves and none of them memorable that we've been seeing since The Raid. Compare that to the two 90s movies, which were packed with badass power moves that made the audience react (like Sub-Zera running up Scorpion in Annihilation then kicking him in the back of the head as he stepped over him).



Cole Young is a fanfic OC and he never stops feeling like it. This movie never once feels like you're watching a real Mortal Kombat movie. It's the video game cinema version of Picard and Star Trek Discovery; it feels like a cheap ripoff.

And it looks cheap too. Supposedly it cost $100 million but it looks like a Netflix movie where the budget went to tranny hookers and blow. The R-rating doesn't add anything either, since all the blood is obviously CG and whenever someone gets stabbed the blade just kind of disappears and what's left wobbles around like it's pasted on. It's really bad and nothing looks real.

The chick playing Sonya is cute but she's short and has no tits. Mileena is black for no reason at all, despite all of Outworld being Asian.

Holy shit this is movie is really Asian. Like impossibly, offensively Asian. Aside from Cole Young, all the Asian actors suck at English, some only a little while others sound like their first time speaking English was in the take the director used. The director, btw, is a virtue signaling white cuck, as are the producers. Johnny Cage wasn't included in the movie out of pure racism. Instead, they ignored the 70s kung-fu exploitation vibe the original game had going for it to make an ultra-serious racist movie filled with Asians and negroes and women with no tits.

tl;dr - If you ever wondered what a Netflix version of Mortal Kombat would be like, MK 2021 is it. Kitana will probably be black in the sequel since money no longer matters and Get Woke Go Broke is a fantasy.

I really don't think that Patrick Stewart would have to pretend to be heterosexual, given the crowd he runs with.

Of course it was. Everything these days is "deep", "dark" and "serious".
Wait, that's what the fight looked like :lol: ?
Aww, look at this boring CGI in a boring set, with lame slow-mo "action" for the trailer.
And really? Magical tattoos that give you superpowers at dramatically convenient moments? Is that really how they explain special moves?

Now look at how they did it in the 90s:


Technically not much of a fight, but tell me what's more entertaining: Having a main character use speed, wits and coolness to troll a much stronger foe, or having him get ragdolled all over the place until he starts pulling out power-ups straight out of his ass as if this was some overly generic capeshit movie?

Nice, CGI from 2007. Now, while the ending is as gruesome as you would expect from Mortal Kombat, it still is pretty fucking pathetic.

That Goro fight is literally his only scene in the movie. He shows up as a shadow a few seconds earlier. It's also cut to hell in that clip because like every fight in this movie it's intercut with like three other fights happening elsewhere. It's really irritating and even happens in the final battle when Scorpion and Sub-Zero are battling it out and the movie keeps cutting to Cole punching some ice to free his family. Just awful editing.

There's also this weird attempt to ground everything by having them fight in normal places, like Cole's driveway. Sonya and Kano have their big fight inside her house, which looks like a hillbilly's trailer. They smash around in the bathroom and choke each other and slug it out before rolling around in the dirt outside before she kills him with a garden gnome to the eye. It doesn't feel like Mortal Kombat at all.

Raiden is fucking awful. Miscast to hell and back and looks like some old Chinese guy cosplayer.

To be fair, Washington Redskin's quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is great as Kano, who's funny and lightens up every scene he's in except the dumbass Sonya fight at the end. He's the 1995 Johnny Cage of this movie. Kabal is great too, but he gets clowned pretty easily.

The fatalities are ass and obviously designed to be toned down for China. Kabal gets eaten by a giant dragon flame then kind of just falls over. Sub-Zero gets burned to death by Scorpion at the end but only gets a little singed before falling over dead. The costumes are ass, too. Only Jax and Kung Lao look like their video game counterparts.

Dude, this is like the third one. You should've known better.
I dunno, I at least had some expectations of humor after "Hi Christopher, I'm Nero"

How the fuck are movies today to "dark and serious" when they're all full of gay Joss Whedon quipping?
