if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This eight-minute short movie is a nice appetizer. We see a cop tell a man about three super-criminals and he wants this man to challenge them at a fighting tournament. Basically, all that happens here is an introduction to the opponents. We don't find out a lot about the cop and same goes for out supposed hero, apart from the fact that he may have a dark and criminal history as well. They made a series based on this, but most of the actors in here did not return for this one, or only for very little screen time. Also the writer of this short film did not return, only the director did. So yeah, I'd probably watch a movie that focuses on the people in this film. Could be decent fun if done right. Even the villains look interesting enough to appear in their own films. But it's already 5 years since this was made, so who knows if it's ever gonna happen. Until then, I recommend watching this short movie.

Being that this is a short film, I think that this is hands down the coolest MK movie out. The only thing that annoys me is that there is no Lui Kang but I can deal with that. What the people that made this short film did was awesome and I really hope that it gets made into a full length movie. There aren't any supernatural elements in this flick yet and there is no mention of out-world by any means, however, that doesn't mean that they aren't there. Keep in mind this is a short film and there is a possibility that it's going to be made into a full length film, if that happens then I hope they add the supernatural element in there and bring up out-world in someway but I think this film is tits

I liked the short movie very much ! I liked the idea of "dark" and it seemed like a very good idea to bring the fantasy in the every day life like Baracka and reptile being humans. But what i didn't like is some characters not being preserved to their physical aspect. I mean what the hell was Baraka doing with dreads it looked more like Kabal rather then Baraka. Michael Jay White as Jax seems perfect for the role but i wish they don't rush into this movie because it would be a pity to ruin such a great idea as Mortal Kombat.Nowdays movies are based more on the special effects then on the story line and acting performances. Maybe someone will read our reviews and take them to consideration.

At first I thought I was viewing a trailer of a new Mortal Kombat movie. I can't believe the quality of this short film.It's atmosphere is so dark and tense that remind me of a horror movie. I hope they ask this director for the next Mortal Kombat movie. The characters are excellent and they don't have super unnatural powers. They are real twisted people. A thriller background can be feel all around the film and puts Mortal Kombat franchise on another level. This is not for kids but hardcore fans of the first game are now grown up (at least 25 years old) so that's not a problem.This is the closest to reality that Mortal Kombat can get.
