Ahh..the memories..back where it all started..Mortal Kombat the movie. If you’re anything like us, this movie was a childhood favorite. Not because of the blood, or the fact that the movie was pure awesome-ness in a box, but because the movie captured everything I dreamed about…and yes, we dreamed about ending people’s lives with devastating fatalities. The movie begins with Liu Kang’s brother dying at the hands of Shang Shung the devious sorcerer. As the story progresses, the young champion, Liu Kang, joins forces with Sonya Blade & Johnny Cage in a quest to save Earthrealm from utter destruction. With the help from the thunder god, Raiden, and the princess of Edenia, Kitana, Liu Kang embarks on a quest that is far greater then a mere tournament. This quest will determine not only the fate of their souls, but the fate of millions.

Now as we stated earlier, both of these disks come packed with some nice features that are really rewarding for Mortal Kombat fans. The first feature we’re about to mention really hit home with us, because we actually owned this mini movie on VHS a long time ago. Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins, the interactive 3D/cartoon mini movie… a piece of nostalgia we will never forget. The movie is a short episode of the three heroes on board Shang Shung’s boat, learning the history of Mortal Kombat champions & history. This disk also contains the Mortal Kombat movie trailer & Mortal Kombat: The Game’s trailer.
Still want some more Mortal Kombat epic-ness beyond the game? Then lets hop into the second piece of the Mortal Kombat awesome-ness with Mortal Kombat Annihilation. Once again this movie brings a lot of memories back from childhood, so forgive us if we start to tear up a little. After the first tournament of Mortal Kombat with Liu Kang standing victorious, The heroes celebrate for a short period of time only to find out the great fight is not over. The emperor of Outworld Shao Kahn invades Earthrealm with a team of deadly warriors ready to fight & and destroy everything and everyone. As one of the Heroes dies, the Earthrealm fighters find themselves embarking on another journey full of twists and turns in a fight that determines the fate of the entire world. The only difference is that this time, they face more deadly foes, greater physical and mental obstacles, and no rules.
This disk comes with a few things as well. It features the movie’s trailer and Mortal Kombat: The Game’s trailer. Not enough rewards for you? How about the fact that when you buy one of these sexy babies you get a free Jade costume code for Mortal Kombat: The Game as well as a free digital copy of the movie. If thats not enough reward for your dollar then you have to be one spoiled son of a..GET OVER HERE! Both of these look incredibly good, after all, they’re Blu-ray!

Mortal Kombat Synopsis:

Lord Rayden (Christopher Lambert) has rescued them, but he cannot fight for them. They – a martial artist, an action film star, a soldier – are the chosen three. And while the world’s fate rests on their shoulders, the rest of us can enjoy the thrills as they compete to save us all in the body-slamming, mystical-tinged, full-tilt spectacle of creatures and conflict that is Mortal Kombat. Paul Anderson (Resident Evil: Afterlife) directs this astonishing and trend-setting experience that showed how to turn a smash-hit video game into a movie smash. Cheer these intrepid three Kombatants – they’re fighting for you!

Mortal Kombat Annihilation Synopsis:

A new era…but for whom? The Mortal Kombat victory in the Outworld was supposed to give rise to a generation of peace on Earth. But never trust the word of the fiendish and the power mad. They’ve opened the portals linking their dimension to ours, and Earth will be overwhelmed – if a gutsy band of human heroes doesn’t acquire new kombat skills that will crush Outworld’s imaginative array of bad-ass warrior creatures. John R. Leonetti, cinematographer of Mortal Kombat and 2010’s Piranha, directs the fighting fury of Mortal Kombat Annihilation. Smash evil!
