Mortal Kombat: The Movie is the cinematic adaptation of the popular video game series, which brings the colorful characters and eye popping martial arts action to vivid life. A collection of the world's best fighters are collated by the lightning controlling Rayden (Christopher Lambert, Highlander) to compete in an otherworldly tournament run by the evil Emperor Shang Tsung (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Planet of the Apes, John Carpenter's Vampires) , in order to ensure Earth does not fall prey to the evil forces of Tsung's realm. And Rayden's fighters have their work cut out for them. It's going to take all the fighting skills of this ragtag team, which is comprised of box office star Johnny Cage (Linden Ashby), agent Sonya Blade (Bridgette Wilson, Billy Madison), Liu Kang (Robin Shou), and the beautiful Princess Katana (Talisa Soto, Don Juan DeMarco) to defeat the awesome powers of the hulking six-limbed Goro, the robo-eyed Kano, the evil Scorpio, the acidic Reptile and the cold as ice Sub Zero.moreless
