NOT another streaming Movie - Mortal Kombat II

Mortal Kombat II is a the sequel to 2021's Mortal Kombat, the fourth instalment in the Mortal Kombat film series. 

Returning cast members Jessica McNamee, Josh Lawson, Ludi Lin, Mehcad Brooks, Lewis Tan, Damon Herriman (in a different role), Chin Han, Tadanobu Asano, Joe Taslim, and Hiroyuki Sanada, with Karl Urban, Adeline Rudolph, and Tati Gabrielle joining the sequel, filmed in QLD. 

In the sequel, martial arts actor Johnny Cage is recruited by the thunder god Raiden and Sonya Blade to join his fellow Earthrealm fighters in a tournament against the Outworld warriors and stop the tyrannical emperor Shao Kahn, with the help of Edenian princess Kitana.

Fan favourite champions, now joined by Johnny Cage himself, are pitted against one another in the ultimate, no-holds barred, gory battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn. There is blood, violence, with a sequel also set to be in the works.

The Boys, Karl Urban stars as Johnny Cage, taking a break from starring in the final season as Billy Butcher.


The cinema was sold out on a Friday screening on the video game sequel. The trailers also included a reboot of Street Fighter and a new live action He-Man film. Talk about my 80's, 90's childhood coming to a cinema near you.

I had, had a huge week. This was just what I needed. Some big, dumb action.

I honestly didn't hate this, but can only just pass it as some of the dialogue was not great.

2.5 Stars.
