You'll also see Raiden, and a whole lot of chasing and fighting.
Mortal Kombat is just the latest in HBO Max's sprint of big name films that are hitting the streaming service at the same time as their limited theatrical release. Most recently, HBO Max dropped Judas and the Black Messiah, which is already gobbling up prestigious award nominations.
We're not sure Mortal Kombat will get the same acclaim. But wow it looks fun.
