The first "Mortal Kombat" is probably the high point for video game movies, which is about as scathing an indictment of the genre as we can imagine. Worse, New Line followed up its success with this abysmal sequel, which tripled the cast of characters while clearly slashing the budget.
The costumes may be hideous, the acting laughable and the fight scenes clunky, but at least the ’90s techno soundtrack still holds up.
