This was the first movie I went and saw with my mom after she got divorced. She loved the message of everyone having control over their own destiny, and ended up buying the film when it came out. We lost her four years ago. So, I can't see this movie without thinking of her. RIP Mom.

I saw something similar with a Star Wars prequel movie. It was two guys that knew eachother and even had concealed lightsabers with them. They began yelling and actually even started to duel inside the theatres and people began cheering. It looked like a Disney staged act instead. It was after this that over here they began banning lightsabers, people dressed up as Darth Vader, or using masks inside the theater. After that, fun was over for us. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Here's another fact about the movie that Minty did not mention Australian actor Trevor Goddard played the personality lacking Kano in the movie and Midway was so impressed by how he portrayed Kano that in future games Kano shared the same characteristics as Goddard's portrayal right down to the Aussie accent. And Goddard wasn't Australian. He was born and raised in England and adopted an Australian persona when he started his acting career.

JFTR, no actor wanted to star in the Mortal Kombat movie more than Cary Hiroyuki-Tagawa(Shang Tsung). I read in the "Making Of" book that at the open audition, he was the only one to wear a costume, then stood on a chair to recite Tsung's entire speech from the tournament opening. Needless to say, his enthusiasm and preparation paid off!

On 7 June 2003, Kano was found dead in his home in North Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. He was 40 years old. Initial reports indicated that Kano was in the process of getting a divorce and that suicide was suspected.[2][3] An autopsy later showed that Kano died from an accidental drug overdose of heroin, cocaine, temazepam and vicodin.[4]

Yea, and it actually helped the film do well.. Imagine that right? Though I would have loved to see what the R rated version of the film would have been like.. Since to me even back then I felt that it should have been a movie with a R rating, and things where dumbed down for the same reasons why back then especially.. Comic book based movies got dumbed down. ( Basically, it was seen as a "for kids" thing and of course should not be something that would have a R rating.. Despite the base material not being for little kids really. )

@@UndyingZombie Studios don't know what people want. They think audiences are stupid and need their hand held through everything. This has been eating at me since I first learned the new movies' plot, but I can't imagine that there is any MK fan in the world who actually wants to see a completely original character, some random UFC fighter, as the main focus of the movie instead of Liu Kang. If you're seeing an MK movie, you more than likely already know the plot of the franchise. You don't need some surrogate to have everything explained to him on your behalf.

@Veghesther it was really bad, to be sure. But at least the screenwriters had a basic grasp of the plot of the game. The new writers I can imagine just sat around pouting about how they hated having to work on a video game movie, and just picked characters a random with zero interest in remaining faithful to canon. Yeah, I hate that in the original Scorpion and Sub-Zero were just henchmen for Shang Tsung. But the characters in the new film just like a never ending series of insults.

Besides the fact CGI effects aged poorly, the movie holds up very well. It has a simple, and as old as the hills plot and character archetypes, but due to the great cast, good direction and fight choreography, great atmopshere and score, and an amazing soundtrack, the movie is still very enjoyable!

Well, there is gore and death in the film. That man shatters into gore, and Scorpion has his chunks, and human hand, fly everywhere. Plus, MK1 was more tame, and PG13 is meant to be the legacy of PG, before 1984. Just look at the recent bond films. Even MK could do more, with said rating. Most films that inspired and shocked kids were PG, because you're aloud admission, yet the severity may be what you find in an R film. It is about what TV14 can do. This all more mimics MK being in pizzahuts and family restaurants. R, the bigger part of the audience would feel like they snuck in, or found their father's stash of something. I say it's best done via story atmosphere, with just shocking mements, like in Indy. The film is the only one that feels like its inspirations, feeling like a tough, genuine action film, with the fantasy stuff giving off a dark fantasy film tone, the whole thing being more like a before 1984 dark fantasy film with some dark fantasy film shocking mements.

How did you overlook that this movie permanently changed Kano's origin thanks to Trevor Goddard's performance? Originally described as being Japanese-American but not one of the more popular characters this wasn't really explored. Goddard, an English actor, tried to play him with a cockney accent but it came across as Australian so they ran with it and every iteration of the character since has been Australian. How would you miss something Australian?

I have high hopes for the reboot. Hopefully it will be a hard "R", as I'm thinking they'll want to market it to the generation who grew up with the games and movies, who themselves are now adults.

I remember when Sub-Zero and Scorpion first came on the screen and the whole theater went INSANE!! I will never forget that!! I love that youre hitting the 90s classics!!! My time :)

MINTY, why didn't you mention that RAYDEN, in Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm, was voiced by CLANCY BROWN who played the KURGAN in HIGHLANDER along side CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT and SEAN CONNERY. That makes three Mortal Kombat/Highlander connections. Three different immortals meant to portray the same immortal Rayden.
