The Breakdown

  • Source characters race- and nationality-swapped for Hollywood
  • Plot is pure committee cheese, zero game fidelity
  • Raul Julia's final role as cartoon dictator
  • CGI-free but still looks like a toy commercial
  • Practical stunts and one-liners hit in the right mood

Side Effects

childhood nostalgia ratio'd by modern eyes, bison quotes on repeat

Watch Instead

Skip it. Watch the 1994 Mortal Kombat movie instead — tighter fights, better camp.
