Finish Him! Mortal Kombat 1995 vs. Mortal Kombat 2021 May 7, 2021
Mortal Kombat finally released in theaters and on HBO Max a few weeks ago, which means everyone and their mothers has watched the latest iteration of the popular video game and spent the last week either blasting it as the worst film
ever made or one of cinema’s great masterpieces.
My take? It’s an enjoyable action flick with a few decent fight scenes marred by some bad performances and dialogue. But who cares when “the chick gets her gut blown out, and you can see her spine,” as one of my friends so keenly pointed out via text message?

While there have been a few attempts at adapting the ‘90s bloody fighter video game phenomenon Mortal Kombat, it hasn’t taken off. The latest reboot/remake of Mortal Kombat doesn’t sanitize the game’s goofy, gory goodness and instead goes for full carnage. This makes it one of the more faithful and decent video game adaptations. Sure, there are some dumb story decisions, pointless filler, and a cast of sprawling magic kung-fu fighting freaks so long that an index card would be handy. But there’s still enjoyment in the simple pleasures of an evil flying demon lady being cut in half by a chainsaw hat.
