Mortal Kombat is a famous series of intense fighting games that debuted in arcades in 1992. Its basis pivots around an ancient martial arts tournament where the greatest warriors from everywhere the multiverse compete to prevent their realms from invasion. A trio from Earth, under the stewardship of Raiden, team up to prevent Earth’s enslavement.
The movie will be on the release more than two decades after the last movie, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. The movie was in the theatres in 1997, it hit the box office but wasn’t a hit for the critics. Now in 2021, Warner Bros. is getting the other round. We are all fingers crossed. The release date for Mortal Kombat Movie was on March 5, 2021.
Due to production shutdown maybe the upcoming Mortal Kombat Movie could face a few month’s delays! However, we cant confirm it.
PLOT
The plot details for Mortal Kombat Movie are unknown. However, we can expect the movie to cover matters like Martial arts tournaments: like the game. We expect the movie to include sequels from both the 1997 movie and the game as well.
Three unknowing martial artists are to gather in a mysterious island to compete in a tournament. The outcome will decide the fate of the world. Based on the popular video game of the same name “Mortal Kombat” tells the story of an ancient tournament where the best of the best of different Realms fight each other. This could be the base for the movie, given the huge fan following for the game.

Mortal Kombat film’s acting, effects and non-existent storyline prevent the film from becoming a true cult classic but if you’re after undemanding action with a pinch of salt then this might be what you’re looking for. Also if you are looking for a 90’s revival nights, die-hard fans of the games, martial-art junkies then this is the movie for you.
