Mortal Kombat (1995) — Rewatching A Flawed Victory

As part of our Mortal Kombat binge series ahead Mortal Kombat 2, the Movie Marathon Podcast steps into the tournament ring to rewatch 1995's Mortal Kombat. Is this the greatest video game adaptation ever made, or does nostalgia have us in a chokehold? The Binge Bros break down the production history, the crazy casting, what the film borrows from the games (and what it smartly leaves behind), and whether this holds up as the greatest video game adaptation ever made. Plus Shang Tsung, Goro, and those $500 sunglasses. Your soul is ours for the next hour.
