I think they did a good job.
Does he have the greatest American accent in the world?
It is not.
But I thought it was really funny.
I really liked – because he is supposed to be a Steven Seagal or a Chuck Norris or one of these types of guys who's washed up.
And they show some clips from his probably direct-to-DVD action movies.
And he has two catchphrases.
One of them is, it's showtime.
And the other one is, you should have sent more guys.
So yeah, I think this movie gets what it is.
I think that it is so similar to the Super Mario movie in a lot of ways, despite one of them having multiple decapitations.
Someone already dying and then further mutilating their body for no good reason other than it looks cool.
Like Super Mario, when they set out to make this movie, they didn't ask themselves, but what if the Mortal Kombat games happened in real life?
They asked, what are the fun things about these games and how can we put them on screen?
The logic of the Mario movie is so great because it's just like, Mario gets big when he gets a mushroom.
We don't need to explain it.
People know that.
And this movie is just like,
The guy shoots fire out of his hands because that's what the guy does.
Because that's what that guy does.
