>From New Line Cinema comes the latest high-stakes installment in the blockbuster video game franchise in all its brutal glory, Mortal Kombat II. This time, the fan favorite 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 that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders.

Curious to see what does better between this and Street Fighter because they both look ridiculous (in a good way)

This seems like it should’ve been the first movie and not the 2021 one. I also think the visuals have improved from the teaser trailer and looks decent.
I’m still not sold on Karl Urban as Johnny though

This looks better than Mandalorian and Grogu

As I predicted last year that The Conjuring would blow up at the box office before presales were even reported, I feel like this movie will be one of the big surprises of 2026 — I’m calling $300M+ WW.

Normal conventional wisdom makes me think this will do fine, possibly even underperform…
But fuck I need this to do amazingly. Can’t remember the last time I was **THIS** pumped for an action film

Since Mando & Grogu is such a fluke this will do totally fine

It warms my heart that the original movie theme song has endured through to this new series of movies.

Looks good to me. But I think it’ll underperform, Mortal Kombat 1 wasn’t super loved and was only a hit on streaming.

Looks way better than the first but man why did they cast Cage so old..

The green screen is so clearly obvious, it’s disgusting. Disgusting as in bad btw. Johnny Cage is a terrible miscast and they don’t even try to hide that Cole Young is dying in the first 10 minutes.

Cole Young is the MCU Taskmaster of this movie. He wasn’t even in the trailer.
Fans will watch the movie just to see his fatality during the cold open lol. No way he is lasting more than 10 minutes in.
