This isn't a thinking movie. This isn't a movie to go in with expectations. Doing so, loses the possibility of immersion and the suspension of belief. For a space opera, it was ahead of it's time and gets filed into the category that 'The Fifth Element' and 'The Princess Bride' reside for a cult classic that many enjoy. If you're looking for a movie to be critical about, then you've forgotten the sci-fi/fantasy stories that you read/lived while growing up. Even in 2020, this movie is far ahead of it's time, and deserves another look to savor the depth and breadth of what is being encompassed. This is a movie that could spawn spin-offs and prequels/sequels to add detail to an already diverse universe in a parallel space/time.

Debatable. There's obviously lots more than can be told in additional features, for all of the characters that had scenes but not really a part. While Boon may have been a Subject Matter Expert to consult, there are quite a few gaps. Liu Kang's fighting sounds were comically exaggerated. Outside of that, lots of the action seems too quick like a long run-on sentence. What this animated film shows is potential for what can be done for MK. This one may be enough to make MK fans aware, but will leave them wanting. I look forward to what future efforts may bring. If curiosity gets the best of you, then by all means, give this one a watch, just don't make it a priority.
