Mortal Kombat Annihilation (1997) Review - Old Man Orange Podcast 719

Spencer and Dave are continuing their Mortal Kombat movie conquest, this time with the original sequel, Annihilation from 1997. This is one of those films that you probably either love or despise, but even with all its goofs and low budget TV movie feel (even though it's ironically 10 million more than the first film), it still has a certain fun charm to the watching experience.

It gets a lot of characters thrown in and maybe too many for its own good, cause almost no one has much backstory beyond just their fight scene. But still, it is pretty darn cool to see so many and for the most part, they look like their video game characters. Unlike so many movies from the 2000s that try to stray from the classic look of Comic book and video game characters.

Is the movie up to par with the original or even the WB animated movies? No, not at all. But is it still a fun watch with a faced paced flow and tons of fight scenes. Definitely. It's in that category of being so bad it's good. And if you look at the turmoil this movie had to go through and the hard deadline rush, you can kind of understand why it turned out like a Power Rangers TV movie.

Join us as we break it all down in this spoiler-filled discussion! Then get sidetracked as usual with other movies, games, comics, and life stories. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more deep dives into fascinating films.
