Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (1997)

Rate: 2
Viewed: 1/12

1/12: Sometimes, it takes a horrible sequel to realize how good the original was.

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation is one of them. The poster tagline reads: "DESTROY ALL EXPECTATIONS." Mmm, okay...if you say so. That's what I did. Of course, the movie turns out to be utter shit. The nonsensical dialogue, the incomprehensible storyline, and the poor special effects all have done it in.

While watching the film, I thought of one simple idea: if the villains are mortal, why can't anyone get a gun and shoot them dead? Come on...how hard is that?

All in all, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation is saved from my rating of '1' because the filmmakers did a nice job with the background cinematography.
