Mortal Kombat 4K 2021

Games have long been an art. And if before the highest mark for a video game was the phrase: 'it's like a movie', now the industry has gone far ahead and is striding somewhere to transcendental heights. Nevertheless, they have been trying to film the adventures of characters from computer screens since the eighties.

Of course, Mortal Kombat, the main series of games in the fighting game genre, was not spared either. A distinctive feature there has always been some kind of unprecedented cruelty. Heads flew off, limbs were chopped off. And it was all cartoonish, not real. The first adaptation for the big screen was in 1995 by Paul W.C. Anderson. His attempt was unsuccessful, but, one way or another, the film gathered its army of fans and became a family for many.

Now, after a couple of decades, another film adaptation has reached the theaters. And she, in my opinion, turned out. You see, fighting is a very simple genre, where, in general, nothing is needed, except for a colorful rubilov for two hours. And there is plenty of him here.

According to the plot, the mixed martial arts fighter Cole is involved in a showdown between the Outworld and the Earthly Realm. All problems, of course, are solved by a scuffle, but it happens exclusively in the ancient deadly tournament, where the selected fighters are sent. Sounds simple, right? This is how it should be.

'Mortal Kombat' perfectly sarcastic about himself, while causing a tear of nostalgia. Scorpio, Sub-Zero, Sonya Blade, Jax, Liu Keng and many other iconic characters from the video game series will run before our eyes and will surely fight.

The picture, of course, is also designed for those who are absolutely not familiar with the universe of Mortal Kombat. She gives stunning visuals and brilliant fighting choreography. This means that the main tasks have been clearly accomplished here.

'Mortal Kombat' is a stylish, moderately cruel and ironic action movie that will appeal to absolutely everyone who is ready to relax while watching a movie attraction on a nostalgic wave. The film will delight fans with both corporate phrases and not the most subtle references.
