The rest of the elements though mostly work. The only element that I would call "bad" would be Outworld, which ultimately feels like cheap cosplay most of the time. That being said, each individual element is still fun. One minute it's a badass samurai film, the next it's an MMA film, the next it's a fantasy film, and there is very little flow from one thing to the next because none of them are really introduced. And sure as a casual MK fan, I knew enough to follow it, but there is still the sense that thing are profoundly jarring tonally here. When it jumps into Outworld, it doesn't tell you anything about this world, it assumes you know. When Kung Lao shows up, it doesn't spend time building his character or telling you who he is, it kind of assumes you know. Made first and foremost for the fans, this reboot spends very little time in worldbuilding or establishing characters.
Rating: R (Some Crude References|Language Throughout|Strong Bloody Violence) But will Cole be pushed hard enough to unlock his arcana-the immense power from within his soul-in time to save not only his family, but to stop Outworld once and for all? Here, Cole trains with experienced warriors Liu Kang, Kung Lao and rogue mercenary Kano, as he prepares to stand with Earth's greatest champions against the enemies of Outworld in a high stakes battle for the universe.
Soon, he finds himself at the temple of Lord Raiden, an Elder God and the protector of Earthrealm, who grants sanctuary to those who bear the mark. Fearing for his family's safety, Cole goes in search of Sonya Blade at the direction of Jax, a Special Forces Major who bears the same strange dragon marking Cole was born with. In "Mortal Kombat," MMA fighter Cole Young, accustomed to taking a beating for money, is unaware of his heritage-or why Outworld's Emperor Shang Tsung has sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero, an otherworldly Cryomancer, to hunt Cole down.
