I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I love MK games. The first movie was OK but this one!!! They blew it. Save yourself some time and avoid watching it!

This is entertaining and the girls have nice tight fitting costumes!The actor who played Raiden carried the film in terms of acting, good job.Everything else was of questionable skill level but was greatly entertaining.Some special effects have aged badly (poorly done green screen) but adds to the entertainment value even more!Motaro the centaur-man was in it and so was Baraka! (and Shiva too, ewwww)The animal transformation CGI at the end was awful, looked like a Playstation 2 game.Worth then entertainment!

Mortal Kombat was one of the few better video game to movie adaptations which was a success at the box office in 1995, in which it was inevitable that there would be a sequel. Mortal Kombat: Annihilation rolled around and whatever worked in Mortal Kombat failed to work here. Everything about it was bad. The plot, the acting, and the screenplay filled with lame lines. It goes without saying that Mortal Kombat: Annihilation suffered a fatality at the box office, consigning it to one of the worst movies of 1997.Adapting most of the plot of Mortal Kombat 3 which was a huge hit on video consoles worldwide, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation sees the return of Liu Kang (Robin Shou), Sonya Blade (Sandra Hess), Johnny Cage (Chris Conrad) and Raiden (James Remar). Interestingly Bridgette Wilson, Linden Ashby, and Christopher Lambert wisely chose not to return for the sequel. Aided by Kitana (Talisa Soto), the warriors must battle Shao Khan (Brian Thompson) to prevent the takeover of Earth.Taking over the director's chair from Paul W.S. Anderson who wisely moved on is John R. Leonetti who is responsible for this mess of a movie.Mortal Kombat: Annihilation was just atrocious, and an example of one of the worst sequels. Stick with the first movie, in fact stick with the video games.Game over for Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.1/10.

This sequel to the first Mortal Kombat is pretty good, but I did not like it that Johnny Cage had to die at the beginning. He's one of the very important characters in the Mortal Kombat franchise. Now this sequel includes more characters from the franchise and it also includes the return of Sub-Zero and Scorpion. Of course they did appear only for a couple of minutes but still it was worth seeing them in this. In this movie Liu Kang has to fight Shao Khan Raiden's brother in order to save the world and all other realms. With the help of Sonya, Jax, Katana and Raiden they defeat Shao Khan and the world is saved. As for Raiden he becomes one of the Elder Gods. Now there are people on here who don't like this as much as the first one but I say its a pretty fair sequel and still worth watching.
