Mortal Kombat (2021)
Great Movie! Considering the 1995 adaptation.
First of all! The movie itself was not bad, the only noticeable bad thing of the movie is amateur dialogue, and parts of the story missing!
Let's start with the bad. The movie starts out excellent foreshadowing Scorpion's story as Hanzo Hasashi which is his former self but doesn't really show him the rest of the movie until the very end!
Second bad, the story... A good movie has to have some value in the story, this movie really focused on the story of Cole Young! Hardly anything else..
Let me explain the missing parts of the story... the story starts with Scorpion, in his former self as Hanzo Hasashi (In 1617 AD) reminds me a lot of the animated story of Scorpions Revenge with slight differences. Scorpion's wife and Daughter die, Scorpion gets mad, tries to kill Bi-Han (Sub-Zero) but fails and dies, Raiden shows up, finds Hanzo's last living bloodline and takes him. (Cuts to what I assume is more modern times UFC) Foreshadows Cole Young! We have no idea what happened with the rest of Scorpion's story or the child Raiden rescued! Until the end, Raiden Tells Cole he is the child he rescued in 1617? Huh? 400 years? What happened in 400 years?
Let's focus on the good!
Cole Young, great character, by far best character development in the movie, I'm excited to see him in future games.
Great fights! Excellent choreography and GORE!! That was one of the biggest requests of the developers was to match the gore, with the games, which it did deliver!
Great casting of characters, although I would've like to go more into the stories of other characters, but still great casting of characters.
Best of all in the movie, the concluding fight!!!!! Omg the ultimate showdown between the two ninja, and at last Scorpion gets his revenge!
The summary of my review, Overall great movie! Lacks a little of story, action is wonderful! My favorite Sub-Zero really took the spotlight in this movie as a ice-bending bada$$, could have focused more on Scorpion but if there is a sequel or a prequel hopefully Scorpion shows up more often, Acting was okay, but sub-par at best. Kano is one of the best characters in the movie, they really focused on his character as the biggest A Hole in all of earth realm and his jokes were the comedy relief of the movie.
It Feels Evil (2019)
New Show, Fake Reactions...
Honestly this show stands out to me as trying too hard, the reactions are not genuine it doesn't give the feel of being real, honestly I wouldn't be surprised if it is a fake show.
Don't get me wrong it could get better, Ghost Hunters started out the same way, Ghost Adventures started out the same way, they all fake reactions, it makes good television, but most of the time you don't get a real reaction out of any of the members. But, it could turn into something good.
Don't knock it right off the bat, but just pay attention, if it's up your alley then go ahead but I wouldn't recommend it to everyone.
Another Life (2019)
Despite the reviews... it's okay
The first few episodes I was slightly cringing with the acting however The main lead Niko (can't spell her name) counteracts all of the bad acting, the point is... if this show didn't have her I wouldn't stand to watch it
