425 — Mortal Kombat II

When the trailer hit last fall, it was so wildly popular that they moved the whole movie release to the summertime. Now, this week, Derek Miranda (@DerekMiranda85) and Karen Peterson (@KarenMPeterson) are finally sitting down to talk MORTAL KOMBAT II. As always, featured reviews are done in two parts, a NON-SPOILER review with letter grade and brief discussion, followed by a more in depth SPOILER review. PLOT SUMMARY: The fan favorite champions - now joined by Johnny Cage himself - are pitted against one another in the ultimate battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders. Directed by: Simon McQuoid Written by: Jeremy Slater, based on the videogame created by Ed Boon and John Tobias Starring: Karl Urban, Adeline Rudolph, Martyn Ford, Tati Gabrielle, Jessica McNamee, Mehcad Brooks, Ludi Lin *Image courtesy of Warner Bros. @TheWatchAndTalk (Twitter/Instagram) Letterboxd.com/TheWatchandTalk Facebook.com/TheWatchAndTalk www.TheWatchAndTalk.com [email protected]   Support the show! www.Patreon.com/TheWatchAndTalk
