Mortal Kombat should come with a complimentary pillow for when the third-act CGI soup inevitably kicks in.

The script for Mortal Kombat feels like it was entirely written by an algorithm fed nothing but energy-drink commercials.

I've seen screen savers with more depth and fewer unnecessary lens flares than Mortal Kombat.

Mortal Kombat: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Mortal Kombat actually is?

Look, I wanted to love Mortal Kombat. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Mortal Kombat?

Director clearly thought Mortal Kombat was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

The cinematography in Mortal Kombat is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Rewatched Mortal Kombat last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Mortal Kombat?

Just got out of Mortal Kombat and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
