It's still the worst videogame movie ever made. Mortal Kombat: Annihilation - Group Reaction
Mortal Kombat 2 Annihilation might just be the worst videogame movie ever made! The sequel to the amazing 1995 (we know it was also cheesy) has totally disappointed and nothing has changed as we watch it again years later. Robin Shou and Talisa Soto return at least as Liu Kang and Kitana but it's not enough to save this techno rave of a fighting film!

Scorpion saying “SUCKERS!!” In a demonic voice is something I’ve heard wayyy too many times. It’s just cracks me up every damn time.
Hello there
GENERAL KENOBIEE
He screamed suckers to the audience for watching this trash can😂
Bro it’s so funny 💀
"This is a really exotic location" "Bro, they're in Colorado" That's hilarious.
The most iconic scene to me is Raiden popping out of nowhere with his new look.
Never give up hope 😄
Yeah he's like hey guys I cut my hair and I have no powers I'm one yall I'm vest raiden
@ngaicy singson This ain't a market substitute. Therefore there are no spoilers. I'm glad you got it spoiled for you
And he does that flip lol
Highlander is Raiden. You are no Raiden, sir!
"What happened to the Wolf?" "Heeeeeeee...." "Can I tell her?" "Yeh" "You'll never see him again." Cue Unexpected Laughter from everybody. The way he said that came straight from his soul LOL. Nearly choked on the sandwich I was eating.
Soooo much random shit in this movie LOL
Her immediate reply of "Are you fucking kidding me?" is perfect both in response to Nightwolf going afk for the rest of the movie and for the entire movie in general
That shit had me dying. 😆
“Your tattoo, I’ve seen it before. On a robot and a woman.” Eeeh that sure was a line in this movie.
🤣🤣😂 I'm dead... It's best line ever! 👀🤖🙎♀️.. LMAO
The first 3 minutes is just Nahid and Mickey being on the exact same wavelength and I think its fucking hilarious
And then the tragic betrayal when Nahid completely changes his mind by the end of the movie. Mickey was heartbroken lol.
Holy shit I'm laughing so hard at this intro, the energy is amazing
This movie had a bigger budget than the first movie. I repeat, this Movie Had A Bigger Budget Than The LAST MOVIE. Matt McMuscles has a really good episode of Wha Happun that explains how this movie came to be.
always plug any member of the now dead Zaibastu. Matt Pat Woolie Liam. much love
They probably blew their wad on all the late 90s cgi that was shit even for the time. The script was garbage. This movie was a huge money grab and 90% of the cast are on par with porn acting. They couldn't get half the original cast or crew to come back, the director was the cinematographer for the first movie, and the movie came out 2 years after the first so it's not like it was in production hell forever. It just seems like no one on set or behind the camera cared about anything but fan service, which failed hard, and thought the name alone would get people to see the movie. Sad part is, it actually made money. Almost twice the budget.
Crazy to think of...
@@darkaero Honestly, in a lot of the scenes I expected something x rated was about to happen.
director/producer wasted it on getting attractive actresses that he can bang
Watching Nahid come to terms with this movie gives me life in ways I didn't think possible 😂

He didn't even last three minutes! XD
Same
Nightwolf: "To beat Shao Kahn you have to pass three tests" Test 1: Courage Test 2: Fighting Jade, I....think? Test 3:
courage not bang kitana's friend beat up kitana's friend
Test 4: PROFIT!
The stunt double for that Raiden fight is Ray Park and this was his first role as a stunt double. If you don’t know who Ray Park is, he played Darth Maul.
Holy crap! That is so cool! Ray Park is a freaking legend. Now I have even more reasons to love this movie and Phantom Menace lmao
“And so your punishment for breaking the rules of mortal kombat... shall be to fight in mortal kombat!”
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Liu Kang and the others win the tournament, yet the other side still cheat for that butthurt.
Wow Marketa is a saint for watching this with you
And everyone else on that couch is a masochist
her reaction at 22:07 to arguably the best part of the movie my child mind could comprehend, was just gold
6:25 Suraj throwing his hand in the air like " oh that last movie was POINTLESS"
Fun fact. Raiden's stunt double is Ray Park (Snake Eyes from GI Joe, Toad from X-men, Darth Maul from Phantom Menace)
"That's supposed to be Shinnok." them: "Wait... what?" me: "Exactly. What he said. Wait, what?!" that just added a new level of bad on top of the bad
I love how they put the shot where Sonya flip throws Cyrax in slowmo, so you can see the rubber robot suit flexing and bending. :))
In the games Sindel wasn't actually evil, she was just being mind controlled. Even though the movie never bothered to explain this, that's why she gets to live at the end. (They actually retconned all this in the newest game MK11, Sindel is officially evil now)
I still can’t believe that Ray Park aka Darth Maul is the stunt double for James Remar aka Raiden in this movie, but I recognize that fighting style anywhere.
Poor dude. He only ever seems to get work in terrible movies.
Marketa looks absolutely defeated by the end.
Scorpions Revenge Next!!🔥🔥🔥
And Mortal Kombat Conquest. At least the pilot episode.
Yes! A movie that Marketa might actually like. That movie was very well done
@@diegopansini3152 Especially since Patrick Seitz (Endeavour/ papa Todoroki) voices Scorpion! 🦂
Who is excited for the new Mortal Kombat movie coming this week!? Who will be here for our reaction!?!?
Cool, but how about Netflix megahit Queen's Gambit?
I've been keeping up with the story of the MK games since 2005 and had done a deep dive of all the old games' lore through all the bios and endings before the reboot game came out in 2011. And having said that, I gotta tell you, I've seen the new movie already and I'm really not happy with it. It feels like someone took a brief glance at the games and just inserted whatever they felt like. No spoilers obviously. With that having been said, would you guys consider watching the animated movie Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge? It came out recently and it's a fantastic adaptation of the game's story, and while it's not perfect, or a 100 percent accurate retelling, it's a genuine labor of love and it's just as, if not more violent than the new movie that's coming out. I will shill the absolute hell out of this animated movie lol it absolutely deserves a sequel.
I saw your band of brothers and the Pacific reaction. There's a movie I'd like to see. In 1937 Shanghai Chinese soldiers hold defense in Sihang warehouse against the Japanese who almost occupied Shanghai. It's called the 800.
I always took it like Shinnok was about to do something against Liu but the other two Gods who were watching were just like no bitch you ain't doing shit.
This movie reminds me that there's worse shit out there than what I'm going through 😂😂😂
If there is one thing the sequel does as good as the first movie it's the music.
But honestly it’s about the only thing 😆
where's dark bro ??
Almost here! Just a few more days til we find out if it's "all we ever wished for" like Dredd, or "be careful what you wish for" like AVP Requiem.
Where's the Dark reaction? C'mon guys I gotta work early tomorrow
I'm seen this movie 10 times. As a kid, I thought it was a good movie at the time.
To be fair, in the game, every jump was a summersault lol
“- Elder God #2: The fate of the universe will be decided as it should be... - Elder God #1: In Mortal Kombat!!
This reminds me of Abed and Troy watching Kickpuncher.
Love you guys and your reactions. You took me on a trip through memory lane with MK and MK: Annihilation. Wish you guys would react to the MK tv series as well as the KZhead web series and all the old school video game movies Super Mario Bros, Megaman, Street Fighter, Double Dragon, Resident Evil
So apparently Season 3 of Mortal Kombat: Legacy was actually filmed but never released. I think a few actors dipped out but WB just never decided to do anything with it.
Marketa, remember when you asked that you got roped into the sorry sequel? Yep, you got your answer within the first ten minutes of the movie. My condolences to your senses.
The robots have dreads because they're slightly inspired by the Predator
Annihilation is lowkey my guilty pleasure. I love this movie. And my mother can attest as 5 year old me had her play it on loop for literally like 2 years. Everyday. I can still quote it.
When Chris killed Marketa with "Simpler than American healthcare" I said to myself, this is why they're married.
Fun fact: Johnny cage does die in MK3 but gets resurrected in MK4
10:48 You can see Scorpion waiting behind Kitana for his cue to jump out.
Scorpion: SUCKERS!!!
I *still* put this over the shit show that was Mortal Kombat (2021). Even though that one might've been less cringe, it absolutely sucked at feeling like classic MK. It's a red flag when the only good thing most people had to say about it was Kano.
I used to work at long John Silvers when I was a teen. I quit when after a year my raise was 10 cents.
This is one of the most hilarious commentary vids I’ve ever seen. The Long John Silvers conversation alone makes it gold.
I remember eating hush puppies. Forgot what they taste like.
Rayden's Stunt-Double in that fight scene against the reptile clones was...RAY PARK aka Darth Maul, Toad, who else did he play?
marketa slowly dying toward the end LOL
Really? In reference to the title of this video, apparently someone's never seen the lie action Street Fighter movies or God forbid Max Payne! BTW, Long John Silver's rulez!
Max Payne at least has competent green screen and line delivery. Still atrocious, especially compared to the game, but it doesn't have any line delivery as bad as "Too bad YOU... ... will DIE."
Mark 31:51. Movie sequel? There was the live-action series, that was shown on two different networks. On one network it had a different name though. 🤔
9:50 that is canon even in current games. first sub zero is bi-han who later becomes the shadow ninja called noob saibot.
I miss Bridget Wilson as Sonya ☹
Here's some interesting trivia: The men who played Jax and Motaro, Lynn Red Williams and Deron McBee, used to be American Gladiators. Deron McBee went by Malibu and Lynn Red Williams went by Sabre
You did it, Marketa! You watched this 😄🙏
For some reason I don't have the same emotional attachment to this one as the first. But I wanted to say that the actor who plays night wolf is also a rapper and I went to one of his "Concerts" before lol small world huh?
It just seems like they had it in their contract to have a scene with every character in the first 3 games.
No word of a lie, this was the very first movie I had ever stopped playing halfway through. I rented it, I could NOT finish it. That's how bad I thought it was. Great reaction guys. I hope you do the Machinima series.
Blockbuster used to have a promotion -- you could trade in a rental you didn't like for another free rental. The only time I took advantage was when I rented Annihilation. Got a new rental the next day.
I never thought I'd see the day Nahid admitted something bad was bad. He just went up in my esteem.
Waiting for Dark. :))))
I hope you'll get around to doing MK conquest :)
For an example of an actually (somewhat) good videogame adaptation, watch Silent Hill. It still has its problems, but at least it's a passable movie in general cinema standards. Which should be the only standard that counts.
As a kid I only remember disliking two things from this movie because as a kid I did know the game, smoke shooting a rocket was incorrect, it's the red robot that had the rockets. And then the animality looked shit even back then. Now rewatching this as an adult there's a character misstake in every single scene.
Please tell me Scorpion’s Revenge is next. It’s a great movie, and Marketa would actually enjoy that one. Not to mention, it prepares for the new movie much better than the rest
Nahid being a fanboy for the first ten minutes of this reaction is literally my only reason for living now. lol
Watching The Normies reacting to movies is always so enjoyable.
I miss long john silvers! The one in my town closed a few years ago.
I saw Mortal Kombat Annihilation at the theater with my friends when we were 16. We were huge fans of the first one and a bunch of dumbass teenagers who didn't know squat about what made really great movies yet. I remember sitting in silence/horror through about half of it. Only ones in the theater. Till someone in the group says "what time does Tomorrow Never Dies start?" So we left MK:A and went to buy tickets for 007 but the theater workers were cool and said since we watched less than hslf and didn't try to sneak into the other movie they just comped our tickets. Overall a good decision I thought. Finally finished Annihilation one day some time later. It was DEFINITELY a good decision..
This reaction was timeless 🤣🤣🤣 You guys should react to more iconic low budget movies 💯 ----Mario Bro's
Oh man, you should watch more hilariously bad movies like this. Do the Room!
And Street Fighter.
And both birdemic movies
And Samurai Cop!
Pieces
I'm so glad you guys are reacting to this so I can skip watching it for another 20+ years
19:27 Marketa, never leave this kids alone
"It's still the worst videogame movie ever made." Excuse me, In the Name of the King 2: Two Worlds, holds that title. One moment from that film that really stands out, it's suppose to be set in Medieval Fantasy Times yet at more than one point you can see pick-up trucks driving down country roads in the background.
Loved this reaction really funny 😄
Wait wait wait: If the tattoo is a family crest that flees the corpses of people that AREN'T a member of Raiden's family, why did it flee Shao Kahn's corpse when him and Raiden are brothers?
also when the dragons comes out of Shao Kahn's body it pretty much kills him and busts out of his body.
I grew up with this one and for awhile it was Mortal Kombat to me and then my uncle finallywas like, that's the second one, you didn't know? He gave me a copy of the first for me to find out Shang Tsung is Johnny Tsunamis grandpa! Lmao
Yea he was supposed to be Shinok, but this came out before MK4 so they didn’t know what he looked like. Also this was supposed to be a trilogy and the third would have brought back both the original Jonny and Rajin and would have quanchi as the villain.
Sonya: Nobody told me why Johhny had to die -This is the dumbest response from Sonya I've heard so far.
They didn't give Johnny Cage enough respect.
20:49 Di-did Ermac pull a noob saibot?
10:49 The most hilarious moment in this movie. "SUCKEEEEEEEEEEERRRRS" 🤣
Nahid realizing the horrors at 6:45 is hilarious!
We don't see it in this reaction but the shot where Rain fell in the fire pit at 12:48 was reused for Baraka's death.
Scorpion died in the first movie. Johnny sliced his skull and lit him on fire. He blew up afterwards. Why and how is he alive?
my stomach hurts from laughing 💀😂😭😭😭
I love how the sub titles spell Raiden, Rayden
This movie still considered the worst movie of any video game adaptation next to the super Mario bros
Nightwolf =Litefoot from Indian in the Cupboard
The gods don’t care abou earth but it’s always been a rule in the mortal kombat universe that mortal kombat decides whether or not a world changes and in order for it to change the opposing team must win 10 mortal kombat s in a row
Amazing how quick Nahid went from thinking this movie was the shit to realizing it was just shit.
Petition to have the Normies reenact this movie
This movie is so unintentionally hilarious, but as an MK fan, there are some things that are really aggravating. *See's Ermac use Noob Saibot's clone move* Me: "Why is Ermac using Noob Saibot's move?! They might as well of used Noob Saibot instead. Ermac isn't even the reason Jax loses his arms in this movie!" *See's Jax remove the metal off his regular arms* Me: "WHY DOES JAX STILL HAVE HIS REGULAR ARMS! They're supposed to be prosthetic. He's not just some JAXass that decided to put metal on his arms." Also Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and Nightwolf totally dipped in this movie XD
Ermac and Rain I was so upset about.
I'm Shao Kahn! God-emperor of Outworld! I've come for your souls! And this is my dad.
First movie is good and still holds up (for the most part). Annihilation is basically the equivalent of a grind house film version of MK. I do like the fight scenes though.
Attempt #477: of trying to get The Normies to check out Symbionic-Titan or Primal. Both made by Genndy Tartakovsky, the guy who made Samurai Jack.
You guys should react to the Pitch Meeting of this movie.
Wow I don't remember this movie being so bad lol. In the games Sindel was under mind control, and is suppose to join the good guys so I guess that's why she lived even though they didn't explain any of that in the movie. You guys should react to Mortal Kombat 9 all cutscenes. Its about 2 hours long and tells the story of MK1-MK3 way better
and yes things are different then the original MK1-Mk3 but it's still way better then these movies. I think Marketa will enjoy the MK9 story better then these movies
please react to the movie tremors, i think you'll really enjoy it
How did Johnny get his sunglasses back???
This video literally made my day.
I don't know why Sandra Hess is considered the least popular Sonya. Her fight scenes/choreography in this one was way better than Bridgette Wilson's - although she's my favorite too.
Because they mad Sonya Australian lol
5:06 Marketa is such a mom
What disappointing me is how Ana developed Melina was in this movie I don't care she just appear they could've at least shown that she was part tarkatan. And I'm also sad that Jade was a bad guy. And Shiva and Rain dies too quickly To this day I still think Liu Kang's animality being a dragon is cool, but the fact that it is designed to look human makes me feel like this was the early design for Onaga. Where the heck is Fujin
Lol! That Advisory at the beginning! 🤣
I’ve never seen this or the first one but I recently bought the Steelbook collection from Best Buy so I’m exited to check out the reaction
