An annihilation of the series. The tag line itself states, "destroy all expectations". We have James Remar doing lots of wire fu.

I had seen bits n pieces of it in the early 2k on a cable tv channel.

Saw the entire movie recently on a fast forward mode.

This is the second installment in the Mortal Kombat film series based on the video game and the story picks up immediately after the last film ended.

While the first part was at least entertaining, this one is sheer lousy.

We have James Remar's body double doing all the wire fu stunts and unlike Christopher Lambert, James Remar got bored with his long hair n white monk gown. He does a crop cut n wears a designer waist coat n military boots.

I found Sandra Hess as Sonya Blade more attractive than the previous part's gal.

Talisa Soto who played Kitana is only 4 years younger to Musetta Vander who played Kitana's mother. I found Musetta more attractive than Talisa.

Brian Thompson as the main villain is no match to Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.

It's based on a videogame...isn't that enough to say?!

Traditionally, movies made from videogames are crap...at best. While you might have a very hard time thinking of any good ones, horrible films like "Super Mario Brothers" and "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation" quickly come to mind. Why? Well, because videogames don't need to be deep, have much plot or even make sense if the game play is good. Here, however, as a passive observer, all the lack of substance in the game plots are obvious as you sit and watch the silliness. Think about it....this is based on a game whose only plot is people punch and kill each other!

I ahve not seen the first "Mortal Kombat" and the only reason I saw this one is that it's on IMDB's infamous Bottom 100 list...the lowest rated 100 films which have received at least 10,000 votes. This means independent and almost forgotten films aren't on the list...just the bigger named, widely distributed crappy movies.

From what I gathered, humans winning the first movie guaranteed that the Earth would be safe for like 100 or a bazillion years. However, here, the baddies from another world are back only two years later. So much for continuity. In the initial portion of the movie, they tried to explain this away to all the human characters, as they also realized the plot problem! That's clumsy. So, the rest of the film consist of some human warriors somehow overcoming Shao Kahn's evil gang of fighters.

So is this any good? Of course not...10,000+ voters aren't wrong in this case. But there are some good things about the film. For 1997, the special effects are very nice--which is important since the story is essentially ALL special effects and crazy costumes. Also, they captured the look of the game quite well. But, no the other hand, the film is simply one insane fight after another after another after another. Not much plot...and it all makes your brain very numb very quickly. In fact, after about 20 minutes of this, my brain was screaming for a break! Overall, a pretty dull film despite its almost constant action and nutty fight scenes. I simply didn't care about any of these characters and just wanted it all to stop! My verdict...just go play a videogame yourself...you're bound to have more fun.

Dumbly amusing

Cinema standards reach a new low with this sequel to MORTAL KOMBAT, a film which really wasn't that good in the first place to deserve a sequel. Dispensing with a plot altogether (aside from some almost soap-like family shenanigans involving a family of gods), MORTAL KOMBAT: ANNIHILATION offers up loads of dodgy CGI effects work and a constant stream of action enlivened by loud, stupid music to appeal to the young teenage crowd. Yes, it's stupid to the extreme, unnecessarily violent, and also unintentionally funny with it.

Opening with the "shocking" demise of Johnny Cage, a lead in the first film, this movie pits a diverse bunch of (mainly new) heroes against monsters, Elder Gods, and a weird bunch of ninja-types who fall from the sky in flames for some unknown reason. Aside from a few scenes set in a quarry, almost every backdrop in the movie is computer generated which makes you feel like you're watching some VR flick or something, not the intended effect I'm sure. So we have our characters traipsing around various locations, arguing, cracking dumb jokes, and fighting and killing lots of bad guys. Big deal.

Said bad guys include a guy in a poor rubber monster mask who gets burned alive in a pit of flames, a woman with four arms, a centaur, a robot guy who fires explosives from his chest, and some recurring characters from the original who don't last long. The action scenes are very silly indeed, with characters seemingly unable to walk normally anymore - instead they have to leap and do acrobatics to move from one place to another. I guess the result is supposed to look "cool" but I found it baffling. Lots of martial arts routines are used but each and every fight is sub standard compared to the majority of martial arts flicks you'll see.

The costume design is flamboyant and colourful on the eye, but it's a shame that the actors fail to fill them out very well. Robin Shou returns as Liu Kang, the heroic lead Bruce Lee-wannabe dude, but let's face it, he's wooden in the extreme. The producers couldn't even afford Christopher Lambert to reprise his role as Rayden (and when you can't afford Lambert you KNOW you're in trouble!), so instead dependable genre staple James Remar appears to put in a boring performance. The only other actor of note is Brian Thompson, a hulking guy who you may recognise from a bunch of flicks; for instance, he played the mean bad guy in COBRA. Somebody decided he should be bald for this film, but instead of making him look more terrifying, the result makes him look bald! The final involves characters turning into cheap CGI monsters, one of them ripping off the Hydra in JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS, and the effect is startlingly funny. MORTAL KOMBAT: ANNIHILATION - a rubbish film to be sure, but kind of amusing in a dumb way nonetheless.
