Mortal Kombat review: Is the violent movie reboot a flawless victory?
Or is it a fatality for the series? 06/05/2021
Mortal Kombat has now made it onto UK shores slightly later than planned, but fans of the iconic video game series can now see whether it was worth the wait – or, more accurately, worth the £15.99 rental.
The movie reboot introduces a new character into the world of Mortal Kombat in the form of MMA fighter Cole Young (Lewis Tan) who s used to taking a beating, but has no idea of his actual heritage. That is until Outworld s Emperor Shang Tsung (Chin Han) sends his best warrior Sub-Zero (Joe Taslim) to hunt him down.

Mortal sinners: the various warriors of Mortal Kombat are locked in an eternally dull battle

“In Mortal Kombat,” warns Kung Lao (Max Huang), a warrior monk with an Oddjob-ish razor-rimmed hat, “talent will only get you so far.” That’s certainly one way of putting it. The largely unknown cast of this video-game adaptation seem like a nice bunch, but if the next Tom Hardy or Charlize Theron happens to be among them, you would struggle to pick them out on the basis of anything here.
