Episode 574 - Mortal Kombat II

This week on CinemaChat... we enter the TOURNAMENT once again (for the first time) with our review of Mortal Kombat II! After the mildly disappointing first film, does this sequel level up the action, characters, and fatalities… or does it fall victim to the franchise curse? We break down the fights, the new additions to the roster, the fan service, and whether the movie actually delivers the chaotic fun people want from Mortal Kombat. We also talk about the performances, how it compares to the 2021 movie, and where it lands among video game adaptations overall. Did Mortal Kombat II finish us with style… or should this franchise have stayed in the NetherRealm? Tune in to find out our final scores. -- We will be reviewing requests from patrons once a month.
