Pop the popcorn AND your knuckles, it’s time to brawl. Round one: Fight! That’s right, Mortal Kombat has returned to cinemas once again. Director Simon McQuoid’s new addition the varied franchise that originated as a fighting video game had its limited theater release and HBO Max same day premiere on April the 23rd. It’s the first Mortal Kombat film since 1997’s Mortal Kombat: Annihilation and speculation has been wild since the project was announced. Finally getting to see what this new one is all about? I call that a Flawless Victory.

Starring growingly recognizable martial arts heartthrob Lewis Tan [seen previously in Deadpool 2, Into the Badlands, and Wu Assassins] as Cole Young, a character created solely for this Mortal Kombat film, this small glance at the lore left us with more questions than answers.

If only someone could walk you through that complex and curious ending…

Oh wait, we do that! Did Scorpion learn English from DuoLingo in hell? Is Australia really satisfied with Kano for representation? Shouldn’t the magic whatever just give Jax new arms? I can’t answer those questions but here’s what we can do…

We’ll talk Sub-Zero, Noob Saibot, and the nature of life and death. Why wasn’t Johnny Cage here to greet us immediately and when exactly might he greet us? Birthmarks, bloodlines, and foreshadowing armor? What is a kunai? Seriously, no Katana? Is this Shang Tsung the same Shang Tsung from the latest iteration of the video games? Are we done with Goro? What does Raiden want from me?
