Loved this documentary. It tells the whole story of how Mortal Kombat as a franchise began. It also explains the origins and shows off many of the characters throughout like Scorpion and Kitana. They even show Scorpions fatalities and Kitanas babalities. It's a great film for MK fans who enjoy documentary films.
