Mortal Kombat: Rebirth

Everyone who said this was retarded need to get their head out of the nerdy fantasy world of their's. This realistic based MK movie looks bad-ass. If you didn't see, Sub Zero's face was flashed for 1 sec during the video. And he looked bad-ass. Not some idiot walking around with dirty ice tanks... And Scorpion as a top assassin is also bad-ass, Legend of Zelda's Link's Hookshot, but with blood. They even gave Scopion his famous white eyes. So yeah, this movie could be really bad-ass, or bad. So everyone will have to wait and see in the future how the movie will come out. For now you don't need to being saying this was retarded you retard! I'm sure if you directed a movie based on a video game it would totally the best movie ever! So why don't you go and do just that?

Yes there are realistic elements here, but most negative comments mentioned are purely assumption. There wasn't anything said about no super natural elements being added at all, nor is Shang Tsung said to be some Mob Boss. Ever considered that an Earth Realm cover? Of course you haven't. The additions of realistic elements makes the concept so much more intense, more relatable, and likely the fantasy elements is what contributing to making the former movies so lame.

This is an amazing concept (and considering it's less than 10 minutes, there isn't much too assume here), that makes Mortal Kombat in any film form return to it's gory, intense roots. Whatever they need to do to actually make a crazy, violent MK, is fine by me. I cannot wait for the Web Series to come out, then when that hits it off, somebody get's the balls to actually make a kick ass movie from this (or maybe a Starz or HBO series similar to Sparticus, minus the lame Roman stuff).

OH and by the way for you slow people, I guess you didn't notice that "Scorpion" had no eyes in this? Most likely not.

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.

An amazing trailer with what us MK fans deserve and it was a tease only! What's it gonna take to finally have an MK movie.....this is brutality !!

The only Mortal Kombat adaptation worthy of the first two arcade games. Long gone are those days where you could play with ultraviolence and dark humor, and pull off some clever social commentary in the process. Now everything needs to be watered down, rendered harmless with a good dose of fantasy, suitable for younger audience. Too bad the very same audiences won't be able to develop critical thinking. Ed Boon considers this a legitimate alternative MK universe but he thinks it somehow crossed the line as far as re-imagining goes, truth is the rest of the franchise is illegitimate. Over the years Scorpion, arguably the most prominent character of the series, went from mysterious hellbent ninja-wraith to meek family man. Isn't that crossing the line? I think the creators of the series themselves forgot about the 90's spirit and what made those arcade games so good, so memorable for us back then. Well, Rebirth managed to bring that spirit back in less than 8 minutes. Perfect cast too, i loved both Sonya Blade and Baraka.
