Wait!

This marriage will not take place!

Papa!

Until our demands are fulfilled, this marriage will not take place! Please

do this!

Our respect is in your hands.

Please don't do this!

Thank you.

I have something for you that will protect you.

It's beautiful, Father.

This was a gift from Lord Raiden, the god of thunder.

If anything were to happen to me, he's always listening.

What happens if you lose?

Don't worry about that. But what if he's too strong?

Strength is not a closed fist.

Strength is here.

And here.

Shao Kahn, Emperor of Outlaw, sought to unite the various realms under one rule.

His.

But the Elder Gods had put certain precautions in place.

Our fate would not be settled by the size of our army.

It would be decided by combat.

The rules were simple.

If one realm could win ten tournaments in a row, it would be given dominion

the other.

Outworld would be allowed to pillage Edenia's resources.

Enslave our people.

This was the final tournament.

Our last chance.

All of our greatest warriors had already fallen.

Only one fighter remained.

My father.

King Jared of Edenia.

But he faced outworld great lawyer.

Shao Kahn himself.

They will never bow to you.

We go see.

Thank you.

you guys right now.

now belong to me.

Mere paas itna kathin kaare hain, lekin main aasaan cheezo ko patan karta hoon.

Ek chal.

Ek pull.

Ek touch.

Ek lay.

Ek click.

One X bat.

You cannot be serious.

You're the one who taught me everything is a weapon.

What do you have there?

Jade?

It was 20 years ago today that you were burning me as your bodyguard.

I know what fell comes from you. And if you have been vicious or cruel to me, no

one would have blamed you. But you treated me like family.

Like a sister.

You are my sister.

In every way that matters.

a proper princess is supposed to sit around on pillows, banning herself.

Then I thought, you are not exactly...

I've been busy training for the tournament.

Good. Because I am the elder god from the beginning.

Let Raiden scrounge for the little champions.

They will simply be the first to die.

And Earthrealm will be mine.

Why is he here?

I have a task for him soon.

I hope you bring the new sorcerer.

My spies have located the relic.

It was last seen in Raiden's temple, where it was stolen by the murderary

We think the amulet is not.

It is said the amulet can heal any wound.

Transform a man into a god.

To charge the amulet would require an impossible amount of power.

We would need to capture a star from the heavens.

Star?

Our world has issued this challenge, and yet the gods have spoken.

When the sun is gone, the first round will begin.

All the combat is upon us.

And yet, we have to shoot one champion.

Go die.

This night won't take it. I'm pretty in love.

My daddy's perfect.

Let's blast it.

Go at it.

Okay.

Johnny Cage.

Hey, guys. I'm off the clock.

Mr. Cage, you have been chosen for Mortal Kombat.

Mortal Kombat, huh?

Is that some kind of fan film?

It's a fighting tournament.

Yeah, not really my thing anymore.

Well, that's the pain gig.

More like a fate of the entire human race gig.

Tell me you're not a crazy fan.

Definitely not fan.

All right, all right. You don't have to say definitely.

You have been chosen as one of the champions of our realm.

The gods have selected you, Mr. Cage.

All right. I think it's time for you guys to fuck off. But, hey, love the

cosplay. What's that, Big Trouble in Little China?

Fantastic film. Listen, I know what it sounds like, but he's telling the truth.

Very soon, the champions will be summoned to fight, and you will be among

The fate of the world rests on you.

Fantastic.

I will see you there.

Thanks for coming. Drive safe and say hi to Delta Tor for me.

You're going to have to show him.

How are you? Yeah.

How are you doing, man?

Come with us, Mr. King.

Let's discover the man you want man to be.

Are we coming or what?

Where the hell am I?

Okay. Still on Earth.

Welcome to Raid of the Sky Temple.

Robodar.

That dude's got Robodar.

We served in the army together. That's Jack Sprague, special forces.

That's Ko Young.

He's due to absorb the task and make them stronger.

He's a descendant of Scorpion.

One of Earthrealm's greatest warriors.

That's Liu Kang.

He's the best fighter we got.

Good fight.

I feel like that's cheating, but okay.

It kind of feels like bullshit that you all have these crazy powers and I'm

just, you know, incredibly handsome.

It could take months of training to unlock your powers.

We don't have that kind of time. Yeah, well, whose fault is that?

I mean, if you knew this was coming, why'd you wait for the last second to

me? We used to have another champion, Kung Lao.

Oh, great, so I'm just a fucking sub. He was murdered by Shang Tsung.

Wait.

Murdered?

Come on, you can't be serious, right?

I mean, that's, like, gotta be against the rules.

You can't just go around killing people.

Called Mortal Kombat for a reason.

Yo, get out.

Send me back. I want to go back. Johnny, wait.

No, no. You said turn, which implies rules and a referee and I don't know,

a medic, not some fucking squid game murder party. You want to quit, let him

We don't need him.

Look, you want to step in the octagon with a bunch of happy assholes that

know how to lose, go right ahead.

But I don't have transformer arms or...

or shoot lightning bolts, or fireballs, or do whatever the fuck it is

Flamesinger does.

So, forgive me if I don't sign up to get multiple.

You are not wrong, Mr. Keyes.

How come if I'm around to hit Dominion, this is a war for the fate of your

world?

Okay, I get it. We all get it.

Some stupid fucking cosmic lottery decided that we're the ones that get to

the world.

Shit is terrifying.

You want to know the last thing I did for Dominion?

I said goodbye to my wife and my little girl.

The two most important things in my life.

There's a damn good chance I'm never gonna see them again.

And I'm okay with that.

Because I know if I die out there, I'm dying for them.

If we lose one more time, the Earth is gone.

And our only chance is to face this together.

You, Johnny Cage.

Even if you walk away, the Elder Gods can still summon you to fight. Not if

can't find me. So what are you going to do, huh?

Are you just going to go hide?

No, first I'm going to drink every beer on the planet, then I'm going to hide.

Because this shit's got nothing to do with me.

I'm not some great warrior.

I'm not some champion, okay?

I'm an actor.

And before that, you were the guy with five black belts and a world title.

Yeah, I saw some of those old fights.

But I wasn't.

And that was a long time ago.

That guy you want is dead and buried.

Or maybe he's still in there trying to get out.

I'm like 90 % sure I have an aneurysm and this is some kind of fucked up coma

dream.

But I'm gonna have a chance this shit's real.

Best of luck with the whole saving the world thing.

What is that?

A kingdom.

One plain dog, please.

You're Johnny Cage.

That's what the tab says.

Holy shit. I frickin' love Citizen Cage.

Thanks,

man. I appreciate it.

Dude, you know what they should do?

They should do another Citizen Cage.

Like a reboot.

Man, give me a break.

Nobody wants that.

What? You think the world is crying out for a Johnny Cage comeback?

Huh?

No. They want gritty. They want grounded. They want Keanu Reeves

thousand fucking dudes with a pencil. That's what people want to see.

Some dinosaur doing a bunch of karate poses.

It went out in the 90s.

I thought it was pretty cool.

The tournament has begun.

Today you fight for our realm.

For the lives of everyone you have ever known.

If you fail, the art fails with you.

Two of our champions will be chosen to compete today.

The winners will advance to the next stage of the tournament.

The losers will be eliminated.

To the death.

That is up to the winner.

Maybe don't move.

Well, looks like it's my lucky day.

Wait.

I

thought you

said two of us were fighting.

You're normally a little more animated.

Uno más.

Where is the amulet you took from Raiden's temple?

I don't know. It's probably in my pocket where I keep all the shit I steal.

We could have left him dead.

First off, fuck off. And you, where are you going with this?

I will take it to my father.

Unfortunately, princess, it appears you're needed elsewhere.

Why, you creepy fucking man.

I saw that fair and square.

Each flame represents a fighter.

The tournament ends when one side has no champions left.

Hey, how's it going, babe?

Listen, I'm warning you.

I got a Saturn award for best fight in a feature film that don't match with me.

Whoa, whoa, easy, all right.

Let's just take a time out here and talk about it.

I really don't feel comfortable hitting a girl.

Don't worry.

I won't.

for fucking me.

No offense babe, but you look really fucking dead.

Shao Kahn showed me the pleasures of a life eternal.

Perhaps I'll do the same for you.

What a pretty trick.

Would you like to see mine?

No, actually I'm good.

It appears our sides are now even.

What do you mean?

Fuck yeah. Look who's back.

Well, how bad was it?

Zombie queen.

And his bikes.

Yeah. So pretty goddamn bad.

from the tournament.

You lost.

You were lucky. She was trying to let you live.

Oi, Pennywise.

I've been looking all over this shit all for you.

You promised me a new eye, and it better be one that shoots later.

I have other priorities.

Like fuck of what? If it's putting on more eyeliner, trust me, you're good.

Alright? Come on, mate. I am bumping into shitlets right at the centre.

I mean, my peripheral vision is fucked. Proper fucked, mate.

So, come on. Chop, chop. Let's get into it.

You don't have to do it right now. I mean, you need to, you know, take a

measurement. Check the colour.

Rub your little hands.

Alright. Let's have a look. Don't fucking roll around, you grub.

Oi! The amulet.

I want that back. And don't fucking roll it. You got your eye. Now leave me

alone. The amulet does not belong to you.

Its powers are well beyond your meagre understanding.

Idiot. All right.

Shit, is that actually happening?

How many odds you made?

Did you do any other one?

You seem to rob with mystication.

Yes.

Well, because of me, your thoughts just got 20 % worse.

I had a chance to actually do something worth a damn in high school.

Say trouble just about sums it up.

lecture but uh yeah yours were good you

don't need a lecture you need perspective perspective huh there are

billion people on this planet and yet the gods chose you perhaps they saw your

true potential as a champion of our throne maybe they made a mistake maybe

see the other gods i'm sure to tell them

Well, I'm glad you find this all so amusing.

Hey, great pep talk, by the way. Just nailed it.

The Princess Xtana has been my eyes and ears, inside the eyes for many years

now.

We know the risk you took coming here.

Thank you, Xtana.

Wait. Are you telling me I got my ass kicked by one of the good guys?

I had to make it look real. He was watching.

They found the amulet of Shinnok.

It was in the possession of a dead sellsword named Kano.

Son of a bitch.

If the Emperor finds a way to charge the amulet, he would be unstoppable.

It would be like fighting a god.

Yeah, well, let's not do that.

My friend is in the tournament.

Jade was raised under Shao Kahn's army.

Do what you must, but do not make her suffer.

You went to another realm?

I'm trying to keep you alive by spying on your friend. By keeping my friend

making a mistake.

You are conspiring with Lord Raiden, the enemy.

I've sworn on it, Katana.

To serve at Shao Kahn's.

The second

round of

the tournament will consist of three matches.

Jax, Cole.

Lucan. Oh well.

I have been given new life.

Look at that.

Still part of the tournament.

But that's not why I'm here.

Your power will be yours.

Your amulet will give you immortality.

I'm guessing you're Jane.

Let's get this over with.

I have told you, Karen, but let it go.

I look forward to spending it.

You know you're fighting on the wrong side, right?

The fuck do you have under there?

For what it is worth, I've taken them through and through.

Are you really going to hate me?

This is for my family.

For my friends.

For every moment they brought me here.

This is for her, you son of a bitch.

Why? Your friend's dead, one of our guys.

Open my eyes to the truth.

What?

Look around.

The gods have abandoned their creation.

Only Shao Kahn can save us now.

One of those gods raised you.

Loved you.

And you just let us through.

You are.

You were my brother.

And when you're dead, your realm falls.

We will be brothers again.

today.

God bless.

the warrior who enables the view.

portal is already within it.

It will not last when he is gone.

Why would they take his power?

Shao Kahn is bonded with the amulet.

Stolen the power of a god. The only way to reverse the process is to destroy the

amulet. Well, we better do it before the next round starts.

So, let's use the portal.

Jump in, we grab the amulet of magic bullshit, destroy it, and then get the

out of there before even those were there.

The palace has defensive wards in place.

Open a portal and they'll sense you at once.

So where does that leave us?

There is a tunnel beneath the castle.

It is the only entrance that is not under constant watch.

Because?

Because it is the third entrance where there's a cotton.

It's a... It's a cotton.

And what did you do? I did not do this, Conan.

Are you

the

leader of this clan?

I am Baraka.

I am Uden.

I know how your people have suffered at the hands of Shao Kahn.

He uses you like flames. He treats you like wild dogs.

We are wild dogs.

We have come.

To end Shao Kahn's reign.

Will you help us?

Shao Kahn has an army.

Do you have an army?

No. Then you're wasting my time.

Then I challenge you.

Baraka, I plan to cut down.

The single combat. I decline your challenge.

Now wait.

You know, everyone keeps talking.

Targeted this, targeted that. Big teeth, stabby arms, ooh, scary.

No one mentioned the fact that you're all a bunch of giant fucking pussies.

All right, maybe don't insult the monster.

I mean, do you have any idea who you're talking to?

I'm Johnny fucking Cage.

This guy?

Liu Kang.

Earth's greatest champion.

I mean, look, man, I get it. I'd be scared of him, too.

But someday, when Shao Kahn's dead and our world's been defeated, you're gonna

have to tell all your little spirit Halloween monster grandbabies that you

the chance to fight the great Liu Kang.

But you were too much of a coward.

to a challenge.

Thank you.

Well, what did I do?

I find you annoying.

I wish to kill you and eat you.

That's what really lends satisfaction.

Is this guy serious?

Uh -huh.

Guy, I'm just a fucking actor, okay?

Johnny Cage is just a character I play, right? I have stuntmen that do this shit

for me.

You're gonna have to do it. Oh, no, no, no.

Oh, agreed. You're going to die.

Yeah, agreed.

Hard agreed.

One minute, Bob.

Guys, you saw me in a tournament.

I can't do this. No shit.

Enough!

We fight!

Whoa, whoa!

This is the ground, okay?

Not the face.

Stay down.

You're an actor.

That was the greatest fighting I've ever seen!

Witness my brother's insistence!

The cunning!

The speed! The ferocity!

Of the one they call Donnie fucking Kane!

Get right on that.

I have brought you as far as I dare.

Tarkatans are not allowed in the castle.

Right.

You have done well, my pupil.

And someday I shall return as promised.

And we will complete your training.

May the screams of your enemies echo in your dreams.

And may these sweet bats melt upon your tongue.

Ah, yes.

The same with you and your enemy and your tongue and the sweet guy.

Be on your own as well.

Rock on.

We're not going to make it in time.

We have to try.

This is the way we preach.

As you see.

I order you to watch me resurrect.

I went to Earthrealm.

Did you now?

Went looking for Lord Raiden.

But he was gone.

So were his champions. I do not know what happened to them.

I only know that I am alone.

Chain her up in a town square.

Let the princess's treason serve as a warning to all.

Jade.

I know she's like a sister to you.

That was no small thing you just did.

I still remember that little girl who told me her fault in books.

The type people are.

we have here raiden sends one of his sad little followers

The son of the great.

And I shall watch you burn.

You got me right?

I'll take you under.

You fucking animal!

You next.

I

can

help. Oh, I know you. Seen some of your movies.

They're all good.

Look at that. Old Rock 'em Sock 'em's dead.

Alright boys, over here. You in the middle.

A little that way.

And you there.

Just step forward.

There.

Now, that's you and me talked.

Ol' Kano's about to ride in on a big white horse and save all your dumb

asses.

I told you to stop.

Oh, you've seen better days.

What do you want of the kingdom?

Well, right now I'm thinking I want you lot to win this thing.

Bullshit. Mate, have you seen our world?

Or Edenia?

I mean, it's nothing but rocks and sand and fucking sad people. I don't want

that. I like air conditioning.

And beer.

Bottomless breadsticks.

And tan lines.

And one -night stands.

And threesomes. And foursomes.

Jack and Coke.

Jack, just Coke.

Should we trust you?

Because I know we're beyond taking the amulet.

Netherrealm.

What's Netherrealm?

The realm of the dead.

A place of fire, not a punishment.

South Sun, I can't wait to get there.

And by the looks of things, you've got enough juice left in the tank to get us

down there, sir. Here's what I'm thinking. We smash the amulet and get

powers back.

Shao Kahn is mortal again.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We kill that fucker. Besides the world. Pretty boy here gives

me a wristy.

Everybody wins.

Ha, ha! You dickhead did it once.

Let's fucking go.

I may not have enough power to bring you back, but you will be stuck there.

No one will ever know what you have done.

of taste, Mr.

Gates.

It's called perspective.

You will not survive

this realm.

Hell, you can sign me the fuck up.

What is this place?

We are relieved.

Ten in the netherworld.

It is a place where nightmares walk around.

But dreams can be honest, too.

If one's will is strong enough.

Fuckin' hell. You've got to try this page, mate.

You know, I try to scare you with all the talk of devils and pitchforks and

that bullshit.

I knew hell would be a pretty fucking sweet place.

Go on.

Good yourself.

We were sent by Lord Raiden.

We need a guide.

Then you have come to the wrong place.

I am sorry.

Behan's alive.

Who's a Behan?

I don't think it's Behan.

It's Sub -Zero, fucker. You know, he killed your whole family or something.

I meant the drug.

Keeping the seat warm?

Raiden and Entenlot warrior the Netherrealm.

They're going after the amulet.

That means there's no one left to guard Lord Raiden.

If we lose that amulet, we lose everything.

Shao Kahn will be stripped of power, and our empire would fall.

Send me down there.

I will protect the amulet while you take care of Raiden. I would think your

loyalties would be with your princess.

Kitana made her choice.

I'm making my choice.

I'm here for their war.

I'm here for your life.

You might be surprised.

I'm the same man you killed.

I belong to the shadows.

They belong to me.

Looks like we're the main event.

will be mine.

Are you kidding me? You don't have any pounds?

Then Kurt will be handsome.

Oh, way to fuck.

I got it.

How do we destroy it?

Well, fuck it, I know.

What do you mean you don't know? I don't. I found it for you. Do I have to

everything? But this is your plan.

Don't talk to me like that. Why don't you take the instructions on the back?

Yeah, that's a good idea, but... Oh, here we go. Look, one ring to rule them

all, one ring to... Go fuck yourself.

Whatever you're doing to me, you expect to be in a cut.

I am the one.

Your death will harm us to another.

My journey is to bring back Kumbha.

Congratulations, daughter.

We just won.

Earthrealm in hell.

No.

One fighter still remains.

I renounce Outworld.

I renounce your legacy of pain.

You'll be cremated.

What have I done?

For the first time in my life, I have not fucking changed.

I belong to you for what you really are.

Do you know what makes a hero?

It's not destiny.

It's not something you're born with.

It's the discovery that sometimes even one small light is enough to hold back

the darkness.

Facing unimaginable longs,

Lifting up the ones you love knowing.

They'll be there to catch you when you fall.

Then realize you've had it in you this

entire time.

I say all of it to Raiden.

And he looks at me.

And he says, you, you have taught us so much, Mr. Cage.

Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

And you know what I tell him?

What did you say?

I said, that ain't no wisdom, Bob.

That's perspective.

Strange. That is not how I remember it.

Yeah.

I was just telling these guys how we saved all the realms together.

Oh.

All right, look.

I may have taken one or two creative liberties.

Behold, the human being that we rescued from the pit of spite.

Seriously? Two or three creative liberties.

Yeah, I'm going to give it to you. I thought you'd go running back to

first chance you got. I made a promise to these guys.

Tell me there's not another tournament. No.

Outworld has been defeated.

Earthrealm has been saved.

So, uh, what the fuck are you doing here? We have lost far too many of our

champions. It's time to bring them home.

Someone order a necromancer?

Might look like Voldemort's nutsack, but trust me, I'm gonna name this fucker.

How can I blame thee?

Long time no see.

You ready for your next lesson?

For the glory of Johnny fucking Cage.

Let's go get our friends.

Then we can okay now.

Good.
