As with other movies based on video games, you know there isn't going to be much of a plot or character development. Competitors head to a martial arts competition on an island where they must fight to the death. If you've played the video game, then you've essentially seen the movie. It's lots of fight scenes with little bits of dialogue between.
I saw this movie at the drive in when it first came out. In the scene where Goro has Johnny Cage trapped on the cliff with no way down, the film suddenly cut to Johnny alone looking relieved. What the...?! Now after being forced to watch it again, I can now rest secure in the knowledge that the drive in messed up changing the reels rather than the filmmaker had no idea how to get out of that scene.
