Mortal Kombat: Annihilation sucks in every way with its idiotic script, lame acting and ridiculous fight choreography. So why do I like it?
Because the film is never boring. It's incredibly stupid, full of dialogue that's way funnier than was intended to be, action that barely makes any sense (not to mention half the fight scenes are with characters whose names are never even mentioned until the end credits, and good luck figuring out who they were even talking about if you've not played the games) and some really bad effects. The production values on the film are... actually... kinda good. There's a lot of attention to detail that's gone into it, it's just too bad the detail is usually ridiculous.
My favourite line at the moment:
And who can forget: Shinnok (never identified on screen as such, but it's him) demanding to know if Shao Kahn has destroyed Rayden yet, and before answering he somersaults down the stairs for no particular reason. Oh, and Shinnok turning into a rubix cube at the end.Originally Posted by Rain
