Manage cookie settings I know it's not the best movie in the world, but I have a soft spot for the Mortal Kombat film. The dialogue is terrible, the special effects definitely do not hold up, and the plot is as nonsensical as the game it's based upon, but young teen me was impressed by some of the fight scenes. I mean, Johnny Cage versus Scorpion was a real treat. Terry Crews is no stranger to the world of video games, of course - he's set to star in Microsoft's Crackdown 3 next month. And in Mortal Kombat 11, MMA star Ronda Rousey plays Sonya Blade. What I'm saying is, let's make this happen!
