Round 1! FIGHT! Mortal Kombat is an international, sometimes intergalactic, oftentimes interdimensional ancient martial arts tournament... that's always to the death! It usually involves lots of gore and if you mash the right buttons, an explosion of body horror and ridiculous carnage. The question is, can this new live-action adaptation, directed by first-timer Simon McQuoid, live up to one of the most popular videogame franchises of almost 30 years? We review Mortal Kombat and decide if it's a Fatality or a Flawless Victory.
