I just watched the new Mortal Kombat reboot. The difficulties when movie makers trying to do a story or universe from a video game, the back story and the game story often doesn't much connects. The same effects when watching the MK 2021 movie. It tries to create a back story but it still feels so alienated and to have certain characters, that seems essential to killed off seems off. Could it be that the producer thinks that character isn't important enough to carry the story? To top it off, having a boss character to appears for the first time on-screen to battle some new created for movie character to be killed off by a newbie. MK universe contains many characters, which I would consider most of the MK1 game characters as the main characters. You get to choose from MK1 to MK5 characters list, anyone of them can be a main character and this can be pass to the next character in a sequel movie. I will wait and see if this is just a one time movie before another reboot occurs.
