Liu Kang - All Fight & Abilities Scenes
Part of Lord Raiden's team of champions, Liu Kang has dedicated his life to serving as a guide and counselor in Mortal Kombat for the forces of Earthrealm. A Shaolin monk, he knows everything there is to know about the tournament and has unlocked his own arcana, able to manifest and manipulate fire. Pure of heart, even when Raiden himself has lost faith in Earthrealm's forces, he still believes. He earned his dragon marking and arcana by slaying another man with the marking, one who trafficked orphaned children.
Portrayed by: Ludi Lin
Whoever did the fire animation in Lui Kang's introduction scene deserves a raise. It doesn't even look CG.
Plot twist... the actor can actually create fire like that IRL :D
@@zxKAOS1 nah he just need a green hand gautlet and he can make real fire tho
The fact that Liu Kang, and Kung Lao were just disrespected like this and them being together is a deadly fucking combo I mean come on.
I thought Kung Lao was pretty bad ass. Liu Kang though...looks like he should be in boy band
Yeah they take their characters seriously terrible writing
They killed off Kung Lao so easily
@@themusicman2005 what do you expect he is power ranger🤣🤣
Just goes to show the director and writers had no idea what they were doing
Liu kang and kung lao are easily the coolest characters in this
Right? I feel the same way.
They did kung lao dirty tho-
I definitely know who I am going as for Halloween Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat
@@Mrcomedy65 That is a badass costume. You can't go wrong with Mortal Kombat
a lot of people think that scorpion is the protagonist of mk , but the reality says that liu kang is the real protagonist alongside with raiden in history of mk
I think I would have enjoyed this movie More if Liu was the protagonist instead of Cole. Yeah I know it's treading familiar water but if it ain't broke don't fix it.
I feel like everyone must know this
@RaVeeSS the logo of the game studio not the game lol
@RaVeeSS that's literally just the cover 🤣
@RaVeeSS because he is the mascot of mk not the protagonist
Liu Kang deserves better! He should’ve had his moment in this movie becoming the champion of EarthRealm.
Justin Pullin
Liu Kang became champion after beating Shang Tsung, then Shao Khan so there may be hope yet.
That’s why they’re making a 2nd movie
That’s what I want and that’s what I expected but wtf who the hell is the Character they put in the movie to the main character 🤬 I should just stick with #MKShaolinMonk
Which he has been for years and years
I wish they just made a Netflix series out of this Game already. The lore is so deep and it would give all the characters an actual ark
Warner Bros owns Mortal Kombat. Only HBO could make a series
@@AimForMyHead81that’s good. HBO makes much better shows than netflix (except for some exceptions of course)
Why Netflix they would only fuck it up worse at least if it’s on HBO max and given to some writers is actually probably give a shit you probably have a better Mortal Kombat show
If it was Netflix half of the cast would be black and rest lgbt, trans etc. So no thank you
I don't understand why they couldn't have just focused on Liu Kang and Kung Lao. The Shaolin Monks are more dangerous than Scorpion and Sub-Zero
True, but those two or more iconic The biggest problem was Cole Young. I like his actor, but the role was just bad He should have just been Johnny Cage
@@darkservantofheaven Honestly if he was just Johnny Cage. I might have been able to except the treatment of those two. Even if just a little. As Johnny Cage has proven time and time again. That when he steps up. He actually has more latent potential than even Kung Lao. Peak Liu Kang vs Peak Johnny is a bit of a toss up though. Really depends on what they are fighting for.
@@mee091000 id quite like to see that explored. Especially since in the MK9 Johnny Cage epilogue, he was said to have descendent from people who trained and bred super humans to kill gods. With Lui Kang as a fire god now, this could be an interesting match up
@@darkservantofheaven Well they are warrior race bred to fight alongside the gods. Not necessarily to kill them. I don't think full power MKX Johnny vs Liu Kang would be a particularly close fight anymore. As Liu Kang has the power of two Liu Kangs AND Raiden. Who was strong enough to like low mid diff him even while amped. Not even factoring the sands of time. As Johnny has no resistance to it unlike Raiden. When I say peak Johnny and Liu Kang. I am referring to a fully prepared and experienced Champion of Earthrealm vs a Johnny who has unlocked his latent potential and trained with the monks.
Good point. Still wondering what neatherealm has in store for mk12
3:55 i love when he does the iconic bicycle kick from the game
I laughed out loud in the movie theater when Kabal said "He's about to get his soul sucked" 🤣😂🤣
We all knew its gonna happened 😅😅
The dialogue in this movie was so bad 😂😂
Despite being made into a side character, Liu Kang was still a really cool and likable character in the movie.
He is not Liu Kang, he is lost member of BTS. Real Liu is Robin Shou.
@@scorpionkobra grow up
@@eduardosalinas7872 If you are trying to defend BTS then you havent grow up yet
I actually prefer him as a side character. Playing the games, seeing the OG movies back in the day, it was sort of nice to see this from someone else's perspective.
@@scorpionkobra fr even tho robin shou's Liu Kang barely uses his powers, he can still kick the shit out of this liu kang.
It's regrettable they made him a side character, but even had they not, it's tough to beat Robin Shou. He IS liu kang for me, as Cary Tagawa is shang tsung
You're damn right CARY TAGAWA will always be SHANG TSUNG
The one thing ill say this Liu has over Robins is that he uses his fire powers much more which I really liked. They didn't have Robin use his powers nearly enough. Beyond that tho, he could use more work.
@@datboy174good point!
How is lui kang a side character in a mortal kombat movie is hilarious to me
threw a fireball in your face also Liu Kang : i''m not your enemy
This Liu Kang may not be Robin Shou, but he certainly gives us that Fire Effort.
0:00 Liu Kang's intro is awesome.
Throws a fireball. "I'm not your enemy" LMFAO
Poor Liu Kang was downgraded because those writers wanted to push their own made up trash named Cole Young instead of focusing on the main hero of the franchise! I do however love how accurate the casting and costume were(actually except Mileena all the others were very well cast)!
terjerumus
I hate that this movie exists. Look what they did to Kano as well. He's supposed to have his laser beam from his cybernetic eye plate put in surgically. In this garbage, he gets his eye laser from getting too mad during a meal. Fuck this movie. Also, Nathan Jones was a horrible casting choice for Reiko. I'm not even gonna bother ranting about Cole Young who was never in any game.
@@UltimateShadow10 the movie is indeed a failure! All they needed to do is just stick to the original material
Thank you! Cole Young could’ve been featured later on within the series yet he becomes the main character in the movie? Nothing against the Cole but I wish they develop his character more.
@@emari9826 Cole shouldn’t have been featured at all
Ludi Lin is actually great as Lui Kang but so sad he's not the main character of the movie
Hes Terrible as liu kang way too small and skinny
He’s an awful Liu Kang. He just doesn’t have that it factor to pull it off
These 2 comments here are dumb af lmao
That soldier falling for the leg sweep lmao "put a shirt on, magic mike." Too funny
Kole yeng: main character Liu kang: side character Poor Liu kang
Kano was 100% the best fucking part of this movie. If they make a sequel, I do hope he gets pop back in again.
Lets be honest, Cabal was probably one of the best parts about this movie
Yeah he was. His character was awesome for a villain
@@sarahibbshibbs1138 Right!? Every time he was on screen it was cool because the character was just a badass and believable villain
He cracked me right up! "did you see a guy down there? complete fucking asshole. Answers to Kano" …"yea he's the reason I live in an iron lung. He's a lowlife, piece of shit, scum bag. You're gonna love him"! lmfao!!
“He’s about to get his soul sucked”😏
"Oh, I'm sorry, did I cut ya?"
Mortal Kombat dont need a movie but a series that'll explore the lore, with lots of seasons and episodes and introducing/adding lots of characters, the potential is huge with better writers, directors, producer's and loyal fans, we'll hopefully get it one day😢.
Kung lao was the real mvp of this film hope they bring him back
I found Ludi Lin’s portrayal of Liu Kang pretty enjoyable imo but I still like the Robin Shou version
His fatality was great
Liu Kang and Kung Lao Are The Greatest Duo of All Time
They should've just made Liu Kang the main character like how MK is supposed to be.
Liu Kang and Kung Lao might be young but they are the core for Earthrealm champions. They made them into side characters
He better be the jacked main character out for blood in the next movie or I'm starting a riot.
Yea you and me about to riot my friends. The 2nd movie has been confirm and they still push for Cole Young as the main protagonist with Johnny Cage seem to have a big role as well...they really just shaft Liu Kang in this live action version
@@shawziiz5031 they have awoken the dragon 😤
Kano did a short hop exactly like it is done in MK11 lol
It’s like ed boom walked into a barbershop and said “fuck my shit up”
This movie was not that bad but definitely could've been better, if there's a sequel i hope it'll have better writers, lore and show more character backstories and growth.🤞🏼
Robin shou was such a good Liu kang because he was also a great shit talker, as well as one of the greatest fighters to back it up! The scene where he throws cages luggage in the water is still fantastic lol they made him too stiff in this film
90's version was born and raised in the US. This version is more like MK9's, who was raised in the Temple, which is probably why he's more formal.
They did my boy Kung Lao dirty by killing him off so quickly. They did Liu Kang dirty by creating a "original OC do not steal" that is basically just him but shitty.
Aside from acting the problem with this mk movie was that they didn’t build up the powers. They just felt like big words without action behind them.
Kabal would've never laid a hand on the real Liu Kang
1:55 LOL spamming the leg sweep move was actually a thing in the MK and MK2 video games! Once people learn to low block, they still go through mind games of when to do so :p
Kabal looks awesome
This very first scene and everything after it feel like from two different movies. Sunset shot and elevating epic music promised the second coming of kung-fu Jesus, and the rest was like B-movie at best. Id wish the rest of the movie was like that introduction scene.
He really bulked up for the next moral kombat movie, that they are currently filming. And he is there from the day one, still shooting. I really think he's gonna be 1 of the leads (if not THE lead this time) in the sequel
Liu Kang and Kung Lao are always the best characters, I thought the movie was amazing, the fighting and everything but the story was a bit of uhh, but still very good movie can’t wait for the next one ☺️.
Lamp’s easily my favorite character purely on comedic value alone.
I really liked Liu Kang and Kung Lao in the movie. This is one of my favorite movies. Even though it's super violent it's good. I have to cover my eyes a few times in the movie.
“Yeah yeah put a fucking shirt one” I feel like that would be my line if I ever got beat in a fight. 😂😂
Kung Lao is an accurate character
Next movie, the real heros better have their spot back
I like how they did the sweeps the same way ppl cheat on the game. Now throw those dramatic uppercuts in
Why cant they give liu kang the accurate battle cries lol
I guess it's because of Bruce Lee's trademark, I don't know
I want the old Liu Kant back he was badass
Liu Cunt 😭😂😂
the tournament didnt even started yet but kung lao is already died SMH
Liu Kang is the best character. He played Zack the black ranger in Power Rangers 2017 movie.
Can you do mcu vulture next? With the second pair of wings that he uses near the end of spiderman homecoming? Would be cool if you could 🙏
Awesome
Lmaoo this is like nerfing the shit out of goku in any dragon ball movie, smh
I thought goku was always nerfed, until the last 5 minutes of the story where he pulls something out of his arse that he could of done 20 episodes ago to win the fight, but waited until everyone is dead to use it so they can use the dragon balls to bring everyone back because they have to work the balls into it some how
@@kaylariley9941 that's a good point its always like that
Liu Kang is suppose to be the main character of this movie, who’s Cole Young? He’s not even part of the game. It really would’ve been nice if we saw a Liu Kang vs Shang Tsung fight.
I think Cole young is Shirai Ryu in my theory
They love doing this smh same thing with resident evil like who tf is Alice. They love ruining story lines
Don't worry Save Liu Kang for MK2
@@chaosandstuff3519 Alice is awesome
@@drakedy2145 Exactly. They are building up Liu Kang. I liked it
the casting was spot on
Liu kang: i'ts morphing time
Um excuse me ?! Did no one noticed this ?! “ want me to slow down a little “ 😳 2:53
The fk you talking about
How did I, the best, missed this MK movie. ..lol Sifu Ku^
JEEEZ! Can this guy get any more jacked?
Crazy to think that this movie would be so good if they just had Johnny cage rather then cole young and maybe actually have the tournament
He was my favourite in the video game
Liu Kang got severely nerfed.
Those who made this movie made the same mistake as those who made the first animated Mortal Kombat Legends movie (Scorpion's Revenge) in not giving Raiden and Liu Kang the prominence that was rightfully theirs. They should learn from the Mortal Kombat video game series and movies in the 90s. Not to mention the Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate video game and the second Mortal Kombat Legends animated movie (Battle of the Realms).
*shoots fireball to random stranger* "I'm not your enemy"
They better focus on Liu Johnny and Sonya next season. And give us Cole as less as possible.
He’s gotta get killed off first min of the movie like what they did to Johnny in mk 2 smh
Season? It's a movie...
@@MK-vi2cm yes I realized that after writing 😂 but then didn't edit .
3:56 Bicycle Kick
this movie is quite cool but the fact that we know it could be much better makes us quite sad
We all know the robin shou Liu Kang wouldn't take no shit or be so weak like the new one
Well that because the director and writer at that time know and appreciate Liu Kang role in the game. You know damn well even if Robin Shou become Liu Kang again, if the director and the writer of this one take control, yea screw even the Robin Shou version too...
They did my man's dirty in this movie
Go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang go liu kang
I like Ludi but the script for this movie did him dirty. I can't wait for an improved Liu Kang in MK2 now that Ed Boon is on board. And Ludi atm looks way more like Liu Kang than ever before, he's gotten buff and shredded as hell.
Robert Shou would always be my Lui Kang. if only they have write that second story in a good way. we would still have him as Lui Kang
Liu Kang firebending
Kano was literally the only entertaining thing about this movie
Movie should’ve dropped Cole as a character and focused on Liu Kang and King Lao as the main protagonists. With Sub, Scorpion, and Raiden as the side protagonists and antagonist. Didn’t understand why Shang Tsung was introduced so quickly either.
11 🖤
nice
This scene 😍😩2:18 to 2:31
Wow
that guy should be kano forever
You can tell that the director was main kabal XD
Nah his main was Kano :D
More like Sub-Zero
One day... I would love to see a Mortal kombat movie with Choreographed Martial arts from Yuen Woo Ping
Casting is okay, but this characterization of disciplined and meditating Liu Kang was good. Worst part of the movie was the OC. The only OC that really matters is Shujinko (lol if you know Japanese) MK: Deception tied Shujinko adeptly into the mythos of the series, in a sense, good guy Scorpion doesn't make sense with out Shujinkos story added to the mix.
Liu Kang was extremely nerfed the Hell-Out-of my boy, he is my favorite character of all time if not in my top 10 characters from the Mortal Combat Universe. If he was not in the movie, the movie would end up the same " At least that is my small opinion" also is guy with the Hat-From-Hell. I believe there is One-&-Only Liu Kang from the Original movie 1995. These are my thoughts, if you disagree with me that's fine, it's your opinion I don't have to agree BUT I will.always respect it all I ask be kind about what you say to me.or the people that may comment. As always all the & nothing but love from a vet.
How you turn the only man in earthrealm WHO THE ENTIRE SERIES IS ABOUT.... Into a fkn side character 😒
Kabal was the best character recreation in this movie
This movie had a lot of continuity errors but I liked it It was entertaining
Fun fact about this film after the test screening. A lot of viewers were actually pissed off that Johnny cage wasn’t in the film. So they had to do a quick reshoot for the ending credit and have the character Cole go seek out Johnny cage in Hollywood.
Can you do Danny phantom maddie fenton scenes
This movie was so underrated by MK fans. They did the game justice with fights and moves, followed most of mk storyline, and had decent actors. I was disappointed in fans tbh.
I could not disagree more
- Liu Kang is a side character instead of main protagonist. - The Chosen One thing for Liu Kang seem doesn't even exist in this version. - Raiden is soulless. - No dynamic father/son or even mentor/pupil relationship between Liu Kang and Raiden. Here Liu Kang act like a total servant to Raiden. - Kung Lao got killed too early. The tournament wasn't even begin. And he was killed by Shang Tsung, not Shao Kahn. - Kung Lao also seem to portray stronger than Liu Kang. Liu Kang really look a bit weaker in this version. - Mileena got introduced first before Kitana, completely ruined the whole mystery about Mileena. - Mileena is also soulless, not a hyper/seducing like her game counterpart. - The entire lore of Scorpion and Sub-Zero got butchered. In this version, both of them live during the edo period instead of modern days. Because of this, Sub-Zero basically live thousand of years. Sub-Zero aka Bi-Han actually kill Scorpion aka Hanzo instead of Quan Chi. No Quan Chi at all in this. So no manipulation between the hatred of Shirai Ryu and Lin Kuei. Instead of all Shirai Ryu got kill, Scorpion child survive thus lead to the biggest mistake of this version of MK. - Cole Young, this is the biggest mistake of this MK. He was an original character, a descendant of Scorpion and was make as the main protagonist. - Because of this Cole Young character got make, Liu Kang got shaft into a side character, Scorpion become nothing but an avatar to be summon and no Johnny Cage role in this movie. - Speaking of Scorpion become an avatar, he really just appear in the last act of the movie. - Scorpion was summon to earth because of Cole's blood summon him. Really no such thing as Quan Chi in all of this. - Shang Tsung can casually enter Earthrealm and enact a mini-war against Raiden's warrior. In the game lore, all of this are forbidden to do before the tournament. - All of their power come from Arcana. Even the tech stuff power from Kano, Jax and Sonya is also create because of this Arcana. This is soo bullshit and funny. Is like them become sort of like X-men or something. - Like Kung Lao, Goro also got killed too early. He was killed before the tournament even happen. Goro was major character in the very first tournament as he is the undisputed champion and someone that Liu Kang's must face. And he was killed by Cole Young. - Goro also soulless. Instead of warrior-like figure in the lore, here he seem like a generic huge "orc" style monster depicted in many western fantasy movie. So...how all this make the game justice and followed "most" of it storyline??? Fun fact, the team behind this movie, I forgot either the director, producer or writer...they really state the reason why they create this Cole Young character is because they doesn't want to make white guy as the main protagonist...Who the heck is Liu Kang to do them??? Liu Kang is clearly not a white guy character. Dude was asian...the only thing good about this movie is indeed the actors, they all good cast...well except for Mileena...she should have been cast as Jade instead
why producers always gotta ruin everything?! bro just give the money and let the writers do their job. nothing against Cole Young, I mean, he even looks cool but c'mon Liu Kang is supposed to be the main hero in that first phase. That movie downgraded him so much. It's a shame because that's the best MK movie ever made. Everything was so well done... A made up main characters just doesn't make sense. Yall could've added Cole but not as the main character.
Lui Kang felt like a cameo in this movie, they had one job and that was to focus on MK lore and instead of doing that they gave us “Cole Young” a character who doesn’t exist in MK and one we don’t care about, they could’ve focused on sub zero Vs scorpion or the lui Kang and kung lao, it’s really simple just stick to MK lore.
This movie felt like a prelogue and the tournament didn’t happen, hopefully it’s in the next movie
Simu liu would be perfect as Liu kang i know Ludi Lin is good i think Simu liu would better of As role of Liu Kang.
They really made it like the game and had liu kang spam sweep kicks 😭😭
Cole Young doesn't have to exist, Liu Kang should be the main character. Work with the original material, figure out something creative with it, why'd they have to overcomplicate things by making a new character...
Rip my boy…
It’s really sad that liu kang in this movie was much weaker then liu kang in the game. I mean compared to the movie, liu kang in the mortal Kombat game he was really strong, he defeated scorpion, shao khan, and almost defeated the deadly alliance of quan chi and shang Tsung. But in the movie he couldn’t even handle sub-zero.
