Adaptation Decay 51: Mortal Kombat (2021)
Added 2021-06-18 23:56:34 +0000 UTCThe staying power of the Mortal Kombat brand is a mystery, but we're here for it... even if this movie is dumb as rocks. Cole is a down and out MMA fall guy who happens to be the heir to a great line of ninja warriors. There's also an interdimensional martial arts tournament that Sonya Blade and Jax are investigating. And Kano is here, too. Can the heroes of Earthrealm save the world, again, for the first time?

I would never say Kano redeemed or saved the movie but he was my favorite part of it.

2021-06-19 19:41:31 +0000 UTCFrom what I can tell, most people liked Kano in this movie. I've felt like I'm in the minority for thinking he just has it cranked up way too high.

2021-06-19 14:31:59 +0000 UTCThe entire movie should have been about Scorpion's revenge on Sub-Zero. Those parts were great. Everyone else is a charisma black hole, and the plot was atrocious. Goro got murdered by the first person who fights back, as is tradition. I didn't know who the hell Cole was, and when the big reveal of his "powers" came, I was like "Ah yes, the most iconic of MK characters... armor shirt guy."
