Mortal Kombat --- Annihilation (A weak sequel to film adaptation of a video game)

by three_ster three_ster is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, May 12 '06
Pros: good premise
Cons: bad writing and scripting, bad set design, terrible special effects, weak character acting
At the end of the first Mortal Kombat film, they left it quite wide open for a sequel to be made. I guess the idea, was that there were enough new characters that they could foster a second film, and if the first one was a success it could quickly ...

How to Annihilate a franchise

by flash-hammer Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Nov 08 '05
Pros: Music, Sets, there are some lovely ladies on show
Cons: If I didn't mention it above, it's a con
The impact of Mortal Kombat Annihilation upon the life, death and subsequent rebirth of the MK franches shouldn't be underestimated, with the film coming in-between games, and having a colossally negative impact on people's views of not ...

Bad Sequel flushes Mortal Kombat franchise down the toilet

by Shampoo-Girl Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 20 '01
Pros: None
Cons: Everything
Bad movies based on video games are known to deliver more than just a huge disappointment. Their failure can be damaging to an actor's career not to mention putting a huge dent on the reputation of the video game in question. A successful VG based movie...

Lean-N-Mean is the only way for such a bad film.

by carl_lazarevic Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 21 '03
Pros: .
Cons: .
I was one of those people you hear about that actually managed to enjoy the first Mortal Kombat movie, but this sequel is an absolute mess. Boring, dumber than a blonde waitress in a hair salon, (No offense to blondes, waitresses or hair salon ...

Pretty much awful on every level. 0.5 stars-12%

by boodapuffmonk , Jun 09 '09
Pros: Pretty faithful to source material, good music
Cons: Very poor execution, very poor fights, even worst special effects
After the events of the previous Mortal Kombat tournament, Liu Kang(Robin Shou) and his friends barely get the chance to enjoy their victory over Shang Tsung(Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa). The Emperor of ...

Using chop-socky on the golden goose

by sussmanbern , Jun 11 '09
Pros: Ummm, well, special effects.  Maybe.
Cons: Everything else.  Everything.
MORTAL KOMBAT 2, also known as MORTAL KOMBAT: ANNIHILATION, was the 1997 film sequal to the 1995 hit, MORTAL KOMBAT.  It is proof of the adage that sequels are seldom as good as the original.The original, in this case the 1995 movie, was ...

Mortal Kombat Annihilation......Oh the horor!

by rustyfanz , Mar 15 '06
Pros: Fans MIGHT enjoy it, no garentees...Sonya's rack (LOL, really though).
Cons: EVERYTHING ELSE
I absolutely hated this movie. To start, the plot line was horrible. Seriously...Liu won a tournament, so Earth is saved for 10 years, but Kahn "breaks the rules" and tries to destroy Earth anyway. Can you say lame? The Plot is by far the stupidest, ...

Leave It To The Games

by fear_the_kat , Jun 19 '04
Pros: Great fight scenes and music.
Cons: It doesn't follow the game storylines, and the graphics have room for alot of improvement.
Mortal Kombat: Annihilation won't be the movie for you if your picky. If you deal with some bad line deliveries and less-than-perfect graphics, pushing it aside for a good storyline, then it might be the movie for you. After defeating Shang Tsung in ...

What Happened?

by slimshady71487 , Aug 30 '08
Pros:

Liu Kang, Princess Kitana, Noob Saibot


Cons:

Having so many characters jumbles everything up and makes the movie confusing, Raiden being replaced


The second movie in the Mortal Kombat series wasn't all terrible, but boy did it suck in comparison to the first one.The plot this time is that after Liu Kang, Princess Kitana, Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage defeated Shang Tsung to win the ...

Definitely deserves annihilation

Pros: Let me rack my brains for an hour or two...
Cons: The entire movie is a con
ORIGINALLY WRITTEN NOVEMBER, 1997

What do you say about a movie that can't even spell "combat" right? When you think about the fact that Mortal Kombat: Annihilation is a sequel to a movie based on a video game, you realize there's...

Mortal Kombat - Annihilation: Annihilate this movie

by KingJFS , Apr 07 '00
Pros: None
Cons: Boring, Boring, Boring
The first Mortal Kombat was a huge rarity. A good movie based on a video game. Mortal Kombat - Annihilation however is not.

To get right to the point, it sucks. In the first one the fight scenes were good and well staged. In this movie...

Annihilated Intelligence

by BobLeep1 , Feb 01 '00
Pros: None
Cons: 3rd rate acting, 2nd rate FX
The only thing that's annihilated in this film is our intelligence. This is, without a doubt, one of the worst films I've seen. Granted, I wasn't really expecting much, but I thought it might a least be good for a couple laughs and some decent fight...

"Pathetic....and weak....weaving this is more good...in its image" - Shao Khan.

by boom5251234 , Feb 15 '03
Pros: Suprised to see the characters.
Cons: The plot was dull...some characters looked weak.
I dont have the movie writing review expierence, so dont get mad at me.

Alright, this movie came out like around 1996, I think, or 1997, sometime around there. This one picks right up after the first one ends, when in the first one the emperor...

What went wrong? (a comparison with the first)

by odisturbed , Mar 15 '02
Pros: Good fighting, awesome soundtrack
Cons: pretty bad acting, switched actors for characters, too many characters.
The first mortal kombat film is probably the greatest game to movie translation out. The only one that really comes close was Tomb Raider. When the second one came around, you left the theatre with a feeling. You wanted to watch something else to get...
