Never heard of the 1st 2 Pokémon movies? LOL

Havent watch MK yet, but I heard its awesome. Please, go watch Demon Slayer! Its so fcking beautiful 😭🧡

Wasn't such a surprise for MortalKombatMovie as the fanbase is huge, 8m copies of Mortal Kombat 11 sold in October only a quarter of them needed to see it to open with $22m, while the original film took similar in 1995 ($55m+ today) was the 7th biggest opening of the year

I’ll always love the 90s Mortal Kombat, some of my favorite things ever, but this was spectacular and amazing.

Nice, loved the movie!

MK is trash 90s version is way better!

We’ve gotten 2.5 mortal kombat movies but only one Street Fighter movie. I need a live action Ken and Ryu epic buddie adventure show. Make these guys as close as brothers, almost a Sam and Dean Supernatural feel.

Were the reviews on Demon Slayer better than Mortal Kombat?

It's underwhelming to say the least.
