The fight scenes are terrific, the characters a well-represented throughout, and newcomer Cole Young is a solid addition to the cast of recognizable characters. While some of the writing is a little on-the-nose\u00a0and the plot feels rushed at times, I&#8217;m excited to see how the teases sprinkled throughout the end of the movie\u00a0come to fruition in subsequent installments.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The Mortal Kombat movie is solid! But what were the best parts, and can fans of the franchise expect this to become an\u00a0MCU-like extravaganza or a one-and-done thrill ride?
