If you liked the first one ...
By Noel Clay from Colchester, England , 08 Nov 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
Okay, it's confession time. There's a part of me that really enjoys these movies. Like many of my generation, I grew up playing the games, and they were definitely among my favourites. I saw the first 'Mortal Kombat' when I was about twelve or so, and at the time really I enjoyed it. And now, many years later, I've finally got round to watching the sequel.
The first 'Mortal Kombat' at least tries to pass itself off as a film ... but there's none of that here. This movie is a feature length, non-interactive computer game. Only most computer games have better scripts. Okay, that's a little harsh ... SOME computer games have better scripts. I was prepared enjoy this movie, but that wasn't helped by the fact that Johnny Cage, the coolest character from the original, is killed off in the first five minutes. The little kid in me screamed 'How dare they!' when that happened.
We have a few new characters introduced ... there's a black guy with steel arms, some chinese chick, another girl with four arms, and scorpion and sub zero's brothers pop in for quick visit too. The big baddie, Khan, is played by Brian Thompson who you'll probably recognised as the alien bounty hunter from the X-files, or various other cult appearances. He along with the rest of the cast give the appropriate over-the-top performances. I mean, what else could they do?
Ten to twelve year old boys might enjoy this movie, and I know I probably would have at that age. But to be honest it's far too silly for everyone else.- Was this review helpful to you?

(12)Extraordinary.......ly awful
By Buttknot (1 review) , 14 Mar 2012The first 10 minutes were truly awful. Wooden acting, terrible fight sequences and awful special effects. The background music sounded like a rat scampering around on a key board. Truly one to watch for the great unwashed, festering in their pits whilst climaxing to World of Warcraft!- Was this review helpful to you?

A Great Sequel!
By mlc302 (7 reviews) from Bournemouth , 13 Mar 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
Watched this straight after Mortal Kombat and it didn't disappoint! Some of the actors have changed but you really don't miss them. Action packed adventure, lots of great fight scenes...- Was this review helpful to you?

Don 't bother
By Bobulousmous (9 reviews) from Richmond , 26 Jul 2011Oh dear, not good at all. Fair enough there was lots of action, but it was all a bit staged and the story was crap. Also horrendous special effects.- Was this review helpful to you?

Yorn
By a customer from Ely , 13 Nov 2009I enjoyed the first film, so i had to see the 2nd. But im afraid this will only dissapoint you. The only good thing about this movie was the Mortal Kombat theme music. The acting is poor, especially Rayden and one fight scene was pertically over the top where they sorta dancing round each other doing spin kicks, i actually found that quite comical. I watched this in 2 sittings as i got abit bored and tired, so i finished it the next day. If i hadnt played the game i probly wouldnt of made it to the end of this film.- Was this review helpful to you?
