The movie was ok. The graphics were amazing and really transported you into the MK world. Most of the casting were great choices. WB is messing with a ca$h cow and this was evident by the creative differences between the Game and Movie storylines. I can see how this move itself either attracted new viewers or repelled diehards.
Overall, I am overwhelmed that Mortal Kombat was finally restored. WB is creating their alternate MK universe that is inline with making more movie$ $imple and Plain! Speaking of creations, Cole is an attempt to tap into an opportunity or market that has not been tapped by the games yet, the MMA, another popular sport worldwide. I love all things MK and can't wait to see what happens next.
