Original subtitles

Catala 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

Joe Khan is arriving your Majesty

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

be strong Katana

Jordan Army

Shao Kahn Emperor of Outworld

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 armies

they would be decided by combat

the rules were simple

if one realm could win 10 tournaments in a row

it would be given dominion over the other

outworld would be allowed to pillage Edenia's resources

and slave 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 edonia

but he faced Outworld's greatest warrior

Shao Kahn himself

they will never bow to you

we shall see

close your eyes close your eyes right now

no

no

the denier now belongs to me

Neil

or they all die

your father shouldn't have brought you here

Katana you're my daughter now

it's Hannah

Liot

you cannot be serious

you're the one who taught me everything's a weapon

you idiot

what do you have there

it's nothing

Jade

it was 20 years ago today

that the emperor named me as your bodyguard

I know what Xiao Khan took from you

and if you had 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

I got you something for the tournament

I was told that

a proper princess is supposed to sit around on pillows

fanning herself

then I thought you are not exactly the pillow type

these are amazing

hello mother

I was beginning to think you were avoiding me

I've been busy training for the tournament

good because

I have petitioned the elder gods

for the tournament to begin

let Raiden's scourage rise

little champions they will simply be the first to die

and Earth Realm will be mine

why is he here I have a task for Shang Tsu

I hope you bring good news Sorcerer

my spies have located the relic

it was last seen in Raiden's temple

where it was stolen by the mercenary Kano

please seek the amulet of Shang

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 a star

god

outward has issued their challenge

and yet the gods have spoken

when the sun is gone the first round will begin

mortal combat is upon us

and yet we are still short one champion

it's showtime

are you ready baby

you should've brought more guys

so what is wrong

attention fans

don't miss your chance to meet your favorite

influencers and YouTube stars in Autograph Alley

it's showtime

Johnny Cage hey guys

I'm off the clock

Mr Cage you have been chosen for Mortal Kombat

Mortal Kombat huh

what's that some kind of fan film

it's a fighting tournament

yeah not really my thing anymore

places of pain

more like a fate of the entire human race gig

tell me you're not some crazy fans

definitely not fans all right

all right you don't have to say definitely

you have been chosen as one of the champions of Aphrael

the gods have selected you

Mister Cage

alright 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 them

the fate of the world

rests on the outcome of this tournament fantastic

I will see you there thanks for coming

drive safe and say hi to Dumbledore for me

you're gonna have to show him

oh my god

how are you doing that come with us

Mister Cage and discover the man you were meant to be

now are you coming or what

where the hell am I

it's okay you're still on earth

welcome to Raiden Sky Temple

robot arms that dude's got robot arms

we served in the army together

that's Jack's Briggs Special Forces

that's Go Yang

his suit absorbs attacks and makes him stronger

he's a descendant of Scorpion

one of Earth Realm's greatest warriors

that's Liu Kang

he's the best fighter we got

shoots fire uh huh

feel like that's cheating

but okay

kinda feels like bullshit

that y'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 waste the last second to find me

we used to have another champion

how loud 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

can't just go around killing people

it's called Mortal Kombat for a reason

yo get up

send me back I wanna go back Johnny wait

no no

you said tournament

which implies rules and a referee and I don't know

maybe a medic not some fucking squid game

murder party dude wants to quit

just let him go we don't need him

look

you wanna step in the octagon

with a bunch of happy assholes

that don't 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 flame fingers does

so forgive me if I don't sign up to get mulched

you were not wrong Mister Case

nine times we have been challenged

and nine times we have lost

and now 20 years later

Shao Kahn seeks the other realm to his dominion

this is a war for the fate of your world look

hitch I get it

we all do some stupid fucking cosmic lottery

decided that we're the ones that get to save the world

shit is terrifying

you wanna know the last thing I did before coming here

I said goodbye to my wife and my little girl

the two most important things in my life

and 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

we lose one more time the earth is gone

and our only chance is to face this together

you Johnny Cage are part of this now

fuck that Johnny even if you walk away

the elder Gods can still summon you to fight

not if they can't find me

so what are you gonna do huh

you just gonna go hide no

first I'm gonna drink every beer on

the planet then I'm gonna hide

cause 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

man

you could have been one of the best

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

hey listen

I'm like 90% sure I had an aneurysm

and this is some kind of fucked up comedy

on the off chance this shit is real

best of luck with the whole saving the world thing

know that when you died

it was not your so called friends who brought you back

it was not Lord Raiden the great protector

it was Shao Kahn

rise now as a champion of Outworld

so yeah

we retrieved the package

Quanchi

I am told you sent your followers to Earth Realm

what were they doing there

simply retrieving some lost property

I believe by order of your father

what is that

I believe it's called a kingdom

1 Sling dog please

you're Johnny Cage

that's what the tab says holy shit

I freaking love Citizen Cage when I was a kid

thanks man I appreciate it

dude you know what they should do

they should do another Citizen Kane like a reboot

come on 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 grounder they want Keanu Reeves

murdering 1,000 fucking dudes with a pencil

that's what people wanna see

some Dinosaur doing a bunch of karate poses

shit went out in the 90s

I thought it was pretty cool

where's my fucking eye

Monday

the tournament has begun today you fight for our realm

for the lives of everyone you have ever known

if you fail the earth 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

now it's up to the winner

maybe don't lose

well looks like it's my lucky day

wait you got this

I thought you said two of us were fighting

it's official John Cena

to ever win this tournament

this young man just became the greatest

seem a little down Johnny

you're normally a little more animated

it's UNO must have said

I don't know what you're on about

the amulet of what now she knocked

pay attention don't look at me with that tone of voice

you big bleached dildo

I've just been dead in my fucking eyes

I will stop your incessant winking

we can build you another why is he not a Revenant

like the rest of them

he was not worth the time or the effort

this one barely has a soul left to corrupt

ha yeah

that fucking loophole ha ha

I got you good thing

where is the amulet you took from Raiden's temple

I don't know

probably in my pocket where I keep all the shit I steal

how about now a different temple

hold on

ha ha yeah

Chicago

Johnson

Oi we could have left him dead

hey first off

fuck off and you

where are you going with that

I will take it to my father

unfortunately Princess

it appears you are needed elsewhere

good luck

each flame represents a fighter

I'm warning you

I got a Saturn Award for Best Fight in a feature films

I really don't feel comfortable hitting a girl

what's wrong please stop the stop button

why are you so fucking mean

please him

it appears your side is already down a man tragic

and who are you Sindel High

Queen of Edenia consort to the great Shao Khan

they send their queen to fight

no we send our best to fight

no offense babe

but you look really fucking dead

I was freed from my mortal bonds

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

what

fuck you

it appears our sides are now even

what I miss

fuck yeah look who's back

well how bad was it

Zombie Queen with the spikes

yeah so pretty goddamn bad

for heaven you were eliminated from the tournament

you lost you're lucky she was shy to and 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 lasers

I have other priorities

like fuckin'what if it's putting on more eyeliner

trust me you're good

alright come on mate

I am bumping into shit left

right and centre I mean

my peripheral vision is fucked

proper fucked mate

so come on chop chop let's get to it

you don't have to do it right now

I mean you need to

you know take a measurement

check the colour or wash your little hands

alright let's have a look

don't fucking roll it fucking ground to grab

Oy the amulet

I want that back and don't fucking roll it

you've got your eye now leave me alone

the amulet does not belong to you

it's powers are

well beyond your meager understanding idiot alright

let's take this baby for a test drive

alright

one two

three

oh fuck it's stuck

wow

holy shit is that HD

that's pretty good how many eyes you made

can you do me the other one

you seem to have a little Misty cage

yeah well

cause of me your thoughts just got 20% worse

I had a chance to actually do something worth the damn

and I screwed it all up so yeah

say trouble just about sums it up

what are those

pills

are they magic fighting pills

is that is that how you get your powers

bird seed

oh you yeah yeah yeah

bird seed yeah

no I uh

thought you were gonna give me some kind of lecture

but uh yeah

chores are good

you don't need a lecture you need perspective

perspective huh

there are 8 billion people on this planet

and yet the gods chose you

perhaps they saw your true potential

as a champion of our realm

maybe they made a mistake

maybe if I see the other gods

I'll be sure to tell them

well I'm glad you find this all so amusing

hey great Pep talk by the way just nailed it

ouch

you have done this before

I've seen it done

it's okay the Princess

Kitana has been my eyes and ears

inside the palace for many years now

we know the risk you took coming here

thank you Kitana

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 Shinok

who's in the possession of a dead cell

sword 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

you followed me I'm trying to keep you alive

by spying on your friend

by keeping my friend from making a mistake

you are conspiring with Lord Raiden

the enemy I swore an oath

Katana

to serve as shell comes sword

the second round of the tournament

will consist of three matches

Jacks Cole Luke Kang

oh well

I have been given new life

my son

look at that still part of this tournament

but that's not why I'm here

attack now

imagine what one could do with such power

careful sorcerer

that doesn't belong to you

the amulet must be bound to a mortal soul

once it is imprinted on you

Raiden's power will be yours

the amulet will give you immortality

well

this is fucking harmless

I'm guessing you're Jade

let's get this over with

I am told you carry the blood of scorpion

I look forward to spilling it

you know you fighting on the wrong side right

what the fuck do you have under there

well hello there

I hope your ancestors watching

for what it is worth I take no joy in this

are you really gonna eat this shit

this is for my family

for my friends

for every moment that brought me here

this is for earth you son of a bitch

he married us to the dead

go on

do it

why your friends spared one of our guys

now we're even

by the way

help a fight

from well

what have they done to you

open my eyes to the truth

what truth

look around

the gods have abandoned their creation

only Shao Kahn can take us down

one of those gods raised you loved you

and you slit his throat

stop

Kung LA

remember who you are

you were my brother and when you're dead

when your realm falls

we will be brothers again

don't make me do this

I'll find a way to save you

but not today

brother

ready

is he he's alive

barely

he's been asking for you

what's up

what happened

I killed him

I didn't have a choice

I'm sorry

where's Cole

he didn't come back

oh shit

give me your greatest warrior

the one they call Sub Zero

beyond

I am reborn

Raiden's portal is already weakening

it will not last when he is gone

why would they take his powers

Sharkon is bonded with the amulet

stolen the powers 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 fuck out of there

before he even knows we're 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 service entrance for the Turk

Ottomans

what's a what's a card

what

hey what did you do

I did not do this Katana

you did

are you the leader of this clan

I am Baraka

I am Luke Cage

I know how your people have suffered

at the hands of Shang Tsung

he uses you like slaves he treats you like wild dogs

we are one of dogs we have come to end shall cons ring

will you help us

Sultan has an army

do you have an army no

then you're wasting my time

then I challenge you

Baraka Atlantic Ocean to single combat

I decline your challenge

targeting that big teeth

stabby arms who's scary

no one mentioned the fact

that you're all a bunch of giant fucking pussies

alright maybe don't insult the monsters

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

I'm Johnny fucking cage

this guy is Luke Kang Earth's greatest champion I mean

look man I get it

I'd be scared of him too

someday Shao Kahn's dead and our world's been defeated

you're gonna have to tell all your little spirit

but you were too much of a coward

I accept your challenge

chain her up in the town square

let the princesses trees and 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

the little girl we pulled from the fighting pits

what's in the realm the realm of the dead

a place of fire and punishment

we smash the amulet we get your powers back

shotguns mortal again yeah

save the world pretty boy here gives me a risky

everybody wins ha ha

you dickheads in or what let's fucking go

I may not have enough power to bring you back

and you will be stuck there

still worth it

you have changed Mister Cage

it's comin'back

you could not survive in that realm without a guide

you do not belong here

holy shit

I mean if this is hell

you can sign me the fuck up

what is this place

reality is thin in the nether realm

it is a place where nightmares walk and haunt

but dreams can be honest too

if one's will is strong enough

fuckin hell you have got to try this peach mate

you know

they try to scare you with all the talk of the devils

and pitchforks and all that bullshit but

I knew hell would be a pretty fuckin sweet place

save 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

there's a Behan

I think it's Behan that's sub zero fucker

you know he killed your whole family or some shit

I mean the Johnson clan

it to be honest wasn't really listening

I am Hanzo Hasashi of the shadow

and hell bends to my command

keeping the seat warm

Raiden has sent his last warriors to 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 would 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 Katana made her choice

I'm making mine

how the hell are we gonna find the ambulance

in this place

be home is here

Hanzo Hasashi

this is not your fight old man

I'm not here for their war

I'm here for your life you might be surprised

I'm not the same

I belong to the shadows

and they belong to me

looks like we're at the main event

let's kill this fucker

just two more deaths and that earth round belongs to me

vengeance will be mine

Johnny Cage

for the first time in my life

I am Johnny fucking cage

Katana

our queen

Katana

a queen

Katana

a queen

Katana a

queen

Katana a queen

you wanna know what makes a hero

it's not destiny it's not something you're born with

it's discovering that sometimes

even one small light is

enough to hold back the darkness

it's facing unimaginable loss

and finding peace on the other side

it's lifting up the ones you love knowing

they'll be there to catch you when you fall

it's searching for greatness

then realizing you had it in you this entire time

I say all of this to Raiden

and he looks at me and he says

you

you have taught us so much Mister 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 there is not how I remember it oh yeah

I I was just telling these guys

how we saved all the realms together

how alright look

I may have taken one or two creative liberties

behold

the human female you rescued from the pit of spiders

seriously two or three creative liberties

yeah I gotta give it to you

thought you'd go run it back to Hollywood

first chance you got

I made a promise to these guys Hollywood can wait

oh shit

tell me there's not another tournament

no outworld has been defeated

Earth Realm 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
