The writer of the article is completely out of his element.  He didn't even mention the Street Fighter movie.  If that isn't quality cinema, then I don't know what is.    :p

The thing is that he is talking about how much the movie kept true to the game. That's why he gave it such a good score, because it almost perfectly replicated the game on film. It didn't try to coat it up and make it all fancy or anything. It was just how the game is; secure a research facility, gather information on what went wrong, kill a shit load of monsters, and get the fuck out. I think Resident Evil was a much better tribute to the game then Mortal Kombat was, and I think that's what he means. Also, the acting in Mortal Kombat (aside from Shang Tsung and Raiden) was just God awful horrible and chessy. I think Resident Evil was a little better in that department for sure.

It's a game.  It's a movie from a game.  It's popcorn.  Switch off and enjoy it.

I watched Mortal Kombat at least 2 times a day for at least 30 days straight in the summer when it was out on Pay Per View. :p I could honestly recite each line of the whole movie. lol Not anymore though. *sigh* I was so young back then.

Side Note: I had illegal PPV lol  :roll1:

Hehe yea after MK came out I bought the soundtrack and listened to the theme and I am the Chosen One till the thing broke.

Im not even afraid to admit it the MK theme was like my favorite song ever at the time.
