Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge

I loved it, now why cant live action do screenplays like this amazing animated movie please continue series

I absolutely loved it, it's not perfect but it's great, the fight scenes are full of impact and gruesome moments, the humor in this animation (most of it comes from Johnny Cage) is also a positive, the main character... Well, I love Scorpion but I really think they could have gave him more depth, maybe it was limited because of the movie's length which is way too short but, that's probably why it's so fun.

It's a fast-paced, impressive and very entertaining movie, loved it.

There is a fine line between respecting the intellectual property and expanding it. Do too little of the latter and you get an army of fans complaining you've destroyed their childhood. But do too much of the former and you get something that lacks any mystery. Unfortunately this is the case of Scorpion's Revenge. Nice animation, decent voice acting and a lot of violence. But in the end it's the same old story of Scorpion getting his family killed and seeking revenge against the same people. The characters are a subset of those in Mortal Kombat II plus Quan-Chi, with cameos for some of them, like short Kitana and Jax sequences, a Motaro for a few seconds, no other ninjas or robots except Scorpion and Sub-Zero (and too little of that one), no Kung Lao and no Jade or Mileena. It promises a sequel where we can see more of Shao-Khan, who only appears at the end, Thanos style.

That being said, the film was solid from start to end, with entertaining fight scenes. I dare say, though, that the beginning of the film was way better than the rest. If they would have continued in the same style, first of all it would have been a Japanese anime, second of all it would have been awesome!

Bottom line: only in this crazy world you can see a WB logo where Daffy Duck is being grabbed by Scorpion's "Get over here!". What I want is an R rated MK movie with Mileena as the antihero. Make it happen , WB!

Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge is everything you want in a Mortal Kombat Animated movie: Bloody action, bad language, everything. It is so good. The movie does not deserve a 6.6. It deserves a 10 out of 10.

We have here the same story, more or less, but with the liberties that animation gives to the writers, plus the Scorpion plot integrated. That means more characters, more action, more fan service, and a bit more story too.

And it is perfect. The animation quality is off the charts. I love the designs, but that depends on the viewer. The bloody battles, the humor, the fast pace, the craziness. Everything works.

I guess some voice actors are better than others (Sony and Shang Tsung are kind of weak, Scorpion and Cage great, the rest more than fine). The score is good but not awesome, and the dialogue is what you can expect (serviceable to advance the story and not much more than that). What this movie does is this: I want more animated Mortal Kombat movies, and I'm desperate to see if they can translate this level of passion for the IP to the live action movies. I can't conceive how a fan wouldn't like it. I don't know about non fans.

Thanks. Thanks for this.
