Racist crap. Hard pass.
The makers of 2020’s Mortal Kombat adaptation were fully invested in the idea that an R-rating and some brutal fatalities would draw audiences in. As such, staple elements like a solid plot, character development, and adherence to the source material were considered unnecessary. After all, it’s Mortal Kombat.
Then there was Cole, a character written specifically for the movie, who nobody wanted, and felt like a stand-in. The reasoning behind the decision was to find an excuse to knock fan favorite character Johnny Cage out of the film, because he was white. The film nabbed a paltry, laughable $83 million as a result.

Not Woke
Mortal Kombat 2020 was not a woke film by definition. The story and plot did suffer as the vision was not directed toward the game and the acting could have been a little less over-the-top. It's worth a watch on your phone if you're someone you'd rather not be with time to kill. This movie contains no forced ideological pandering nor any indoctrination.
