Summary: What the hell?
Review: What is going on here? All of a sudden, the whole plot of Mortal Kombat that we all know and love has turned around and taken a nosedive! Barely, ten minutes into the movie John Boy is popped off. And Rayden, what happened? I thought Rayden was supposed to be the serious guidance sort of guy. He actually cracks jokes now! Say what? No, seriously though, this new version of Rayden stinks. And when he turns into a mortal, the whole thing went down the drain! However I guess there were a few good bits in it. The special effects were great. And yuck well I have to say it, where did this bit of Liu and Kitana getting all kissy and mushy come in? Actually that bit was quite good, especially when she was kidnapped. (Ha,ha.) Well, when you tot everything together I'd say that I'm being overly generous giving this movie four stars!

Summary: Even worse than the first movie!
Review: Horrible story, horrible acting, horrible music, ridiculous plot. In those aspects, it's just like the first film. BUT, the special effects were horrible and the fight scenes were completely boring and uninspired. In those aspects it doesn't even live up to the first movie. Did I mention the horrible acting? Oh I did, but really, it was even worse than the first movie's and the first movie's was VERY BAD! The cast is filled with ex body builders, ex porn stars and second rate martial arts movie stars whose performances just make you want to laugh. By far one of the worst movies ever made! Steer clear! Even if you're a diehard fan of the video games, this movie just might kill your devotion to anything having to do with Mortal Kombat.

Summary: good movie
Review: this movie was pretty good. Although it did have it's boring parts, what movie doesn't? Rumor has it that a 3rd Mortal Kombat movie is due for release in late 1999. Also, rumor has it that a 5th Mortal Kombat game is due in 1999 or 2000.

Summary: This sequel grows on you .
Review: I happen to really love this movie even though I know that it is not the best of sequels, but the acting is decent(especially by veteran actor James Remar). The special effects are mostly quite awesome apart from some dodgy flying-through-the-air stuff! Brian Thompson's portrayal of Shao Kahn is deliciously over the top, and Robin Shou is very convincing. I think that the sequel actually has a more in depth plot structure than the original. I did not like the fact that Johnny Cage met such a swift and cruel end, though, and I feel that too many characters were crammed into it just for the hell of it. The twists made it seem too much like a daytime soap for my liking-(I'm my brother's father's mother's grandson, etc). All in all, I found it to be an enjoyable action adventure movie, and Leonard Maltin should just turn off his brain and enjoy the movie for what it is...ENTERTAINMENT!

Summary: This s*cks
Review: This movie kompletely s*cked. It had no plot, unlike the game and the first movie. The only good thing about this movie, was the soundtrack.
Rating:
Summary: No storyline or depth, not worth it.
Review: Ok, I have seen both movies and was an ok Mortal Kombat fan. This movie was horrible. While the first movie had character development and storyline, this had none. The first movie stuck to the theme of the game, and even if you had never played the game at all, you could have understood it. Not in MKA. This movie throws out all story, and simply makes it one fight after another after another. There is not a single explanation about any new character's story. To someone who hasn't played all of the games, like me, the characters were pointless. No one had any point or any depth, and there wasn't any real reason to fear the bad guys. They simply were cut out bad guys who ran off nothing. Watch the first movie, and stay away from this one unless all you care about is endless, pointless fighting.

Summary: It sucked hard.
Review: Mortal Kombat was good. This sequel was so bad that Chris Lambert didn't even star in it again. He must've leared about bad plots from Highlander 2.The actors tried. The fight scenes were alright. The movie was so bad it sobered up 3 drunk friends. That is pathetic.

Summary: Bad Plot/Good Fights
Review: This movie could have really gone somewhere, instead they threw out the storyline along with the plot. The first movie was WAY better than the sequel. If only they had focused on the plot instead of getting everyone in it.....
Rating:
Summary: More plot
Review: I think this movie had some of the most incredible action I've ever seen, but there is just no plot, all there is is fight after fight.
Rating:
Summary: A BAD SEQUEL
Review: THIS IS A BAD SEQUEL. THE FIRST MORTAL KOMBAT MOVIE HAD GOOD GRAPHICS, AND GREAT ACTION. THIS A LOUSY MOVIE. LOUSY ACTION, NO STORY, BAD SENSE OF HUMOR. THE ONLY THING GOOD ABOUT THIS ONE IS KITANA. IT ENDS UP WITH A 2 OUT OF 5.
