I might be a little biased as I am a really big fan of the Mortal Kombat Franchise. Overall I really enjoyed this documentary. It went over a lot about the franchise and the overall atmosphere of the gaming industry in the 90s. I enjoyed learning about Ed Boon and John Tobias a little more and the addition of Fatalities and origins of the characters. They go over multiple characters in depth like Johnny Cage, Scorpion and Kitana. I do wish they covered some of the villains such as Shang Tsung and Shao Kahn, but overall it was a great watch as a fan. I'd easily recommend it to anyone who loves arcade games or Mortal Kombat itself.

If you like other Mortal Kombat short movies/films such as Mortal Kombat Rebirth you will definitely enjoy this one. The fight scenes are awesome, the story is pretty good, and the depiction of the characters is outstanding. Kenshi and Kitana look exactly like their video game counterparts. Their costumes are great and they make a really good team. There are obviously a few issues such as mediocre special effects and a smaller budget (it's not a feature film or anything). Despite this, it still manages to be a great short film. If you are a fan of the franchise, taking 10 minutes to watch this will be worth it.

It's an awful production. It has like a 3 dollar budget and the quality is terrible. It uses some of the Annihilation cast like Jax which sucks because that movie was terrible. It also uses conquest cast members like Siann which also sucks because I liked conquest and now those characters and actors are in a horrible production. The fighting is terrible and the Special effects are awful. When sub zero freezes and does a fatality on Siann its a laughable death scene. He freezes and shatters her which doesn't look that bad in comparison to everything else but then they ruin it with the worst effects I have ever seen.
