Imagine your grandma running Kano over with her car and then she gets his mark. Raiden shows up and takes her to the temple and then grandma has to fight Goro

"We need an Asian lead! Let's remove Johnny Cage and create a whole new character." Liu Kang: "........"

Personally to me the greatest Mortal Kombat film ever made is Big Trouble In Little China.

I remember someone told me Cole young was an actual character in the games. I had to cut connections

They wasted Nitara, Reptile, Mileena, Goro, and Reiko.

What made ‘95 stand out was that in spite of a lack of story material for the video game series at the time, they adapted the formula from “Enter the Dragon” in much the same way the first game did, and it worked. Even with a PG rating and some cheesy 90’s CGI, the ‘95 MK movie was more fun to watch.

I love how you're calling them fake Johnny Cage, fake Mileena and fake Raiden lolllll I agree with everything in this video 100%

Story needed to be centered around Kung Lao and Liu Kang. Instead we got a non MK character as the main character.

It’s insane that the kommunity knows so much about the lore as we’ve been playing the games since it’s beginning but Hollywood can’t find anyone to write a good script.

Johnny cage was more or less the comic relief of the first one too. One of my favorite lines was “those were $500 sunglasses”

How could you use the pit, and not have an uppercut finisher? That easter egg is practically handed to them. 😵

When his daughter said 'use your uppercut dad' at the start I knew it was going to be a disaster.

Mileena running around looking like jokers long lost sister

The fact that it's a prequel makes this even worse, they jobbed out Goro before the tournament even started. Even if they bring him back he's already been beaten so who cares at that point?

So...if the Hasashi bloodline is so important, who hasn't Raiden been breeding tons of Hasashi's over the 200 years since Scorpion's death? Why hasn't he been keeping and training these descendants foe the tournament? In theory every one of them would have the birthmark, as it's never established that it only appears on certain family members.

I wanted to see this movie solely for the fight scenes and the director even said he made sure it had the best fight scenes ever. They were such a let down. They were so obviously choreographed and slow paced to the point that you can predict their next move.

If they ever make a sequel, I want this Shang Tsung to shapeshift into Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.

Funny that the 95 film has way more “personality”, different locales and a more distinct Oriental Flair despite having less Asian cast members.....

Standards have fallen SO bad, and people were SO starved for a new Mortal Kombat movie that they'll defend this. They know people are willing to settle, that's why we keep getting forcefed mediocrity -- at BEST. Should have been a Kano movie, he stole the show.

The monks were worshipping Kristofer Lambert, not just Raiden!

While Mileena and Kitana's race isn't Asian they're Edenian, usually Kitana and Mileena are light skinned women. Mileenas actress should have been cast as Jade or Tanya who are already dark skinned

The 1995 movie, in spite of its limited special effects; still stayed true to the roots of the game...the tournament. Warner Bros. was never 100 percent behind the film in the first place, and it showed by allowing a first-time director to handle a major, iconic piece of intellectual property such as Mortal Kombat. Suggestion: Have someone like Guillermo Del Toro direct the next film, and have Ed Boon co-write it.

Sorry for the big downtime from previous video. I am working on a ton of stuff, next up should be Falcon and the Winter Soldier

One of the things that I thought was stupid about this movie is how did Sonya find her power so fast?? She takes the mark from Kano and then gets her power right away when it took others days to weeks lol

Not lying, I actually said it in writing on a Mortal Kombat page on Facebook, that I wouldn't be surprised if there were no tournament in this.

No shapeshifting for Shang Stung either.

There was just no way in the hell this was gonna top the original 1995 MK movie. You wanna know why many people believe it's the best video game adaptation movie? Because the plot isn't convoluted, it's kept simple and fun like the game, the characters are all perfectly cast (some casting choices like Kano were so well-received, it changed his character in the games as well), the fights were generally all good and engaging, and the music was AWESOME!

Mileena is supposed to be the fake version of Kitana and yet for some reason this movie was able to make a fake version of Mileena...

Finally somebody with the balls to tell the truth

the commentary on this movie BLOWS MY MIND, people are HAPPY about the action scnese but think everything else is garbage... and say they love it go fucking watch youtube videos of the game, the movie needs to have a fucking plot

Ok lets be real here. Kano is more the replacement for Johnny cage. He was pretty much comic relief in every version of mk, except for the godawful mkx story mode.

If they didnt want a white lead why didnt they make lui kang the main character?

Can we all go troll the director of this movie? I’d like that a lot. I’m way past tired of these mediocre movies man.

Spot on review mate. I watched this train wreck, then a week later watched it again with my older son(who missed my previous viewing) in the hopes to salvage something with a second run through. I felt even more stupid the second time. What a disappointment in every way.

GORO IS AN OUTWORLD "CHAMPION" YET WAS DEFEATED BY A NOOB UFC FIGHTER !!!!!!

I normally would NEVER say this but my biggest drawback was all the cussing in the movie like the writers were making up for not having a good dialogue

And the kicking out of Johnny Cage makes even less sense when you realize that he's not the hero of Mortal Kombat. Lui Kang an Asian character is literally the chosen one as stated every single game. So all they did was taken the chosen one status away from one Asian character and give it to a new Asian character that nobody knows of cares about.

By far the best review of this dumpster fire of a movie.

Fun fact: Jax's arms have been taken in a number of ways throughout the years, however, originally it was Ermac(my favorite underappreciated character) who took his arms the first time

They killed the tournament champion Goro how the hell are they gonna have a tournament now?

If anyone noticed is that's mileena's teeth aren't sharp like her original game depiction. So she isn't just blackwashed, her desgin was horrible and racist.

I hate how Hollywood is now black washing every character instead of putting other characters that are already black or creating new ones

They got there ass whooped then fake johnny cage after getting plot armor suggests let's fight them one on One. That's brilliant

After watching this movie I watched annihilation as a palate cleanser.

Finally, a proper movie review that has expressed everything I hated about the movie. Well done. Good to know that we have true fans.

"I always talked about...respecting the source material." Reminds me of the D&D quote "Well Danny kinda forgot" lol

I don’t understand how tf my friends thought this movie was awesome. I told them that the fight scenes were edited horribly and some had bad choreography. One of them said that I had short attention span(as a joke ofc). I mentioned how tf can I pay attention to the fight scenes scenes when both the camera man and editor have severe Parkinson’s. They thought I only cared about the characters and story which I told them multiple times I didn’t care about the story. Since the story and writing is trash maybe it could have good fights but the movie doesn’t have any half decent fights. Honesty I realized how MK is also known for its great lore and stories. Saying that the MK movie doesn’t need a good story is a shit argument.

Raiden is a real dick in this movie. He openly mocks some of the champions which is something I'd expect from Shang Tsung. He let's his fighters even get harmed or killed (i.e Kung Lao stupid death) and never steps in. '95's Raiden least saw potential in the champions and tried to guide them to be stronger. Which is way more close to the soure material. Also Nitara was an absolute waste of a character for this movie. Why was she included if she was just going to be offed without even a decent fight.

At least the 90s movie respected the source material even tho there wasn't much at the time and the atmosphere and scenes were ten times better .

If i accidently run one of them over with my car on my way to work...gonna have to call into work: "Sorry boss, now i gotta go fight in some tournament call Mortal Kombat to save the world"

Reptile looked like baby Godzilla 😑

I swear Every time I hear that ‘ respecting the source material ‘ line , it makes me wanna cry.

How does this review not have enough viewers or likes. Everything he's saying is completely correct

My thing....how is sub zero still alive when hekilled scorpion centuries ago

This is what happens when you just try to money grab the audience. Sad to see that years of story and content just went away for this trash of a movie. I don’t think we’re getting a sequel

Commentary had me laughing. "Fake Johnnie Cage" never got old.

The Rayden character peaked with Lambert. Every other Rayden so far has been a disappointment

One major plot hole with the Kana is when Sub-Zero kills Scorpion he should have gained Scorpion's tattoo thus breaking the birth right and there being no Cole. Sub-Zero should have been like Kurgan in Highlander and be getting more powerful by killing protectors and collecting their tattoos. This would also explain why he was able to live 400 years.

The real question is, do scorpion get sub-zero's symbol since he killed him and if so, does that revive him? This movie was ass

Yo im so glad someone actually knows all the characters and story I hated explaining to everyone I knew on how stupid this movie was esp since they never explained why they hated each other like the original story does

Remember when raiden went ape shit on a bunch of demons in mk 11 with the lighting swords? Something like that could be awesome

This whole movie was literally about scorpion’s origin story and revenge on Bi-Han or some other bullshit lmao.

Why didnt they get Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa to do Shang Tsung? O.o He is Shang Tsung

I hope they don't make a sequel lol.

Lol! I love how you call Cole fake Johnny Cage because it's true 😂

Even without watching this rant, I can clearly tell where this is going since the title says it all. It just makes MK Legacy a lot more legit than this disastrous film due to terrible script writing.

Mileena Rant. Sisi Stringer Aka "Mileena" quoted in her latest interview that she didn't like the MK9 Mileena, saying - "She looks like a Striper and wasn't going to portray her like that"... Not only does that make me really angry as a Mileena fan, but Just goes to show she didn't make any effort into research the character... she took 1 look and went "nope ain't doing that"... Then why F*#ing audition as Mileena then? Well Sisi listen - Mileena is MUCH More than just what you mocked from maybe 5 seconds in the game. Mileena is one of the most fascinating, vicious female characters in MK, and YEAH Mileena IS meant to be somewhat seductive, fun and inviting - a kinda damsel in distress to allure her opponents in her web, then she takes off her mask revealing her permanent Tarkatan Teeth, which should NOT appear in CGI for maybe 15 seconds... Mileena would be a dream come true to play, I've seen better Cosplay Mileena than this, and they deliver decent looking Make up Teeth that looks fantastic on them, these girls are not professional or anything, but in the movie industry when you spend millions on the costumes ecs your telling me you could not give Mileena realistic Tarkatan Teeth? Absolute BS, the original Sinbad Movies had better monsters and we are going back 40 years!. Not only your insulting the original character, the lore but also the fans. Both Sisi & the producers failed miserably to portray Mileena, as you made zero efforts into getting into the character - don't try to justify it by saying "we wanted something new"... No! you can't re design a well known character who is known to look oriental with her traditional pink costume and the Twin sister of Princess Kitana - so does this mean Sisi Stringer is Kitana? I Hope not, don't Butcher Kitana too. For those who Don't know Mileena this is her Wikipedia... "Dual sai-wielding assassin, she acts as the evil twin and MAGENTTA PINK palette swap of Princess Kitana in Mortal Kombat II in 1993. She has been promoted throughout the Mortal Kombat games as its semi-ironic sex symbol, especially since Mortal Kombat: Deception when she began a pattern of wearing more revealing outfits." I don't expect a naked Mileena on screen but my god there are ways of portraying a classy, seductive Mileena. Plus again... obviously Mileena doesn't exist right from the start not before Kitana!! Sisi portrayed "Mileena" in the most bland way possible and the joke is she had a stunt double? For the short boring fighting performance she gave they also had s stunt double...? Wouldn't it be just believable to just cast a REAL agile gymnast or martial artist to play Mileena? There are plenty of beautiful athletic women in the world, I mean show off those skills & Inspire!. Lewis Tan didn't even get to show off his skills and his a professional martial artist! This movie should of had 80% of fighting screen time and less BS, I don't get it lol... Bring in more talent and less politics to movies... Plus Sisi has a video on Instagram of her painfully trying to do a simple cartwheel and a back roll Which she clearly had difficulty doing - but doesn't show any of it in the movie after all her efforts..... Lol, and in another interview said her audition was awful but she still got the part?.... 🤔 Well the others must of REALLY sucked if Sisi was the best out of the bad bunch... 🤣 I'm done !

You are a fucking legend for knowing so much about the Mortal Kombat lore more than anyone that I've seen ranted about the movie. It's usually the guys who are all "I have a mild understanding of the lore." You sir, know so much!

Thank you for this, I thought I was going crazy because I agree with everything you said and more - but it's like everyone is brainwashed to think THIS movie is great, it's an insult to the genuine MK fans, and I'm not going to disrespect NRS because this movie clearly goes against the original lore completely! And I had zero idea they boycotted Johnny Cage - replacing him to Cole young... I thought Sisi Stringer as Mileena was bad! Who should of been Asain ... The casting choice was obviously political, most of the actors, the director, writer the producer - Australians, and who had the most screen time!?.... The Australian who acted as the Australian - Kano, who Clearly dominates the entire scene, over acted and was irritating to watch after a while, he made Liu Kang look dumb, should of been reversed as explained by Ed Boon Liu Kang is the heart of MK normally, but I can't help but feel they made "Kano the bully" out as the favourite, which Really wasn't supposed to happen but because everyone else was weak and acted "avarage" it made Kano stood out even more, personally I thought he was extremely over the top .... The script writing was high school material.... Just overall bad.

It still baffles me how they swapped Johnny cage out because they didn’t want a white main character. The main character of mortal kombat is Lou Kang. They literally had this one given to them on a silver platter.

Bro 2021 Liu Kang was like a home health care nurse lol he was too passionate lol, 1995 Liu Kang was gangsta, I will never forget when 1995 Liu Kang threw Johnny Cage luggage in the lake. That was gangsta and funny as hell. This 2021 new Liu Kang may as well been a psychologists slash social worker lol

‘yOu FuCkInG MoRoNs’. makes me chuckle every time.

Exactly my biggest argument how is it no tournament. No other movie or cartoon doesn't include a tournament

Jax looses his arms to Ermac

This has to be the BEST rant review of the film I watched, I mean a lot of the points in this review was exactly what thought myself but there where others that I never knew about like the racial aspect and the race swop of some of the characters, this review was definitely worth watching, well done!, 👍🏾

the directors would just say " its a different timeline (: " if we gonna ask about sub zero killing hanzo's clan etc and not quan chi that did it

Cole Turner is the perfect Dumb and Dumber meme "What if he shot you in the face?" .."What if he shot me in the face?"

I thought it was ridiculous as well that they made Mileena black. Like, why? She's the clone of Kitana, who is asian. So if this movie gets a sequel, is Kitana going to be black? This race swapping crap is getting ridiculous.

This rant was so damn good that I'll drop the sub for the channel

this is 100% true as a mortal combat fan myself. subscribed

No cap if Jade is going to be in the sequel, their gonna make her white.

I can best describe the new Mortal Kombat as Superficial over Substance, namely it includes stuff fans wanted...but only surface level crap just to please the average fan and even then it falls pretty hard. Easter Egg nods to characters and lore, violence, fatalities, some obscure characters from the games and Scorpion and Subzero beating each other up. The problem is that all of that stuff is primarily window dressing, things that while serving as extras enhance a movie, without a solid story, well developed characters, enjoyable dialogue and decent sets, all that extra crap means little to nothing.

Sssooooo is kitana gonna be black now since mileena is her clone?

What if Kole Young ends up being Kobra?? 😂😂😂

I really liked the 1995 mortal kombat raden

Would love to know on what they wasted $50million of the budget

One of the few ppl talking about how shit this is. Instant like before even hearing you out. I genuinely hated every single aspect about it. It was literally made by a bunch of suits. You ain't one of those Warner Bronies I see.

Kano was actually the best character in this movie.

Should have made it a Netflix series.

Finally an honest review.

The original movie from 95 was better lol this reboot was made just to cash in on our nostalgia

THANK YOU!!! I have been arguing with people for years about Raiden being white... "He's Asian!".... No the fuck he isn't!

For someone who doesnt know a thing about MK, this movie is just straight up misleading about core lore points.

If they make a sequel the only way they'll get me to watch it is if 90% of the film is focused on scorpion, and they brutally murder Colgate in the first 5 minutes.

I'm curious what made them think Shang Tsung is a Warlord and not a Sorcerer... because his outfit is pure crap and not accurate to his kharacter.

I wonder how Johnny Cage got his marking..

I love your main and second channel. Your content is so entertaining

I'm only going to watch it because it has Joe Taslim and I also enjoy martial art movies. If you hadn't seen The Night Comes For Us, I'd recommend it because it's great and he did an awesome job in that film. Plus, it's REALLY brutal and bloody.

Is it too soon to reboot?
