a5c7b9f00b Detective Jackson Briggs recruits the assassin Hanzo Hasachi into an undercover mission - enter an illegal tournament and eliminate all its criminal participants. I remember the original Mortal Kombat video game. Back in the early 90&#39;s it was immensely violent and supernatural. It was the first video game where the characters had true to life faces (so when a head was being ripped off it felt real and intensified the violence). These two themes (violence and the supernatural) have been a constant in every video game, movie or TV series with the MK title over the last &gt;20 years.&lt; In fact these two themes are what a lot of people identify MK with. Without them Mortal Kombat loses its identity (Van Dam in Street fighter anyone –i know, i know this one doesn&#39;t suck b***s).<br/><br/>Actually Ed Boon and John Tobias the creators of Mortal Kombat weren&#39;t involved in these shorts. But if Kevin Tancharoen is successful in his bid to be the next director of MK they will be apparently, so I hope they ad in all the traditional elements. <br/><br/>Good short, Im hoping next they can re-do xmen and instead of bone claws wolverine can have knives stitched to his hands and a bipolar disorder to make it more &#39;true to life&#39; and &#39;real&#39; ;) This is the style of Saw meeting the action of any good martial Arts film, no cheesy one liners gr8 cast for a short.<br/><br/>R-rated how the Mortal kombat&#39;s should have been from the start.<br/><br/>Characters based on madness and high power influence not supernatural and other dimensions crap, in a modern day city that is over run by crime and most likely corruption.<br/><br/>Even though only being a short i can picture in my mind so much more from this film. Any film company to see this short, and not turn it into a feature length movie which would almost certainly make it&#39;s money back and more, are stupid in my eye&#39;s. A good video game turn movie is hard to come by now a days this movie could bring life to an old franchise and breathe new life into old characters and bring new hope for all the fans who want to see a decent MK movie.<br/><br/>Here&#39;s hoping for a new MORTAL KOMBAT tournament FIGHT ! FATALITY !
