Negative Positive
Title: Shallow and predictable
Review: When you take a video game where the whole game is simply one-on-one fighting, there is not much story to go with. Apparently the makers of this movie simply accepted that fact and said "so what?"The action scenes are at times enjoyable, at times laughable, and at times boring. But more importantly, there are other ways they could have worked the use of fight scenes into this movie. That's one of the (few) things that they did better in the second film. Simply saying "we're here for a Mortal Kombat tournament" is easy but uninteresting.That said, it is interesting the ways they worked in some of the elements of the games. Those would only really matter to fans of the plotless video game series.
Is the review positive or negative?
