I saw this about 4 months ago, and yes it makes Mortal Kombat Armegeddon look like Citizen Kane.
The only high points (without spoilers) are:
Kevin Nash as Bass
The fact that they kept most characters stories intact from the games.
That's about all I can say positive about it.
It's a low budget wanna-be Charlies Angels with more martial arts.

heavy spoilers.
if they kept most storylines intact from the games, helena wouldn't be a busty bimbo on rollerskates, bas would have jumped up and beat the shit out of zack while exclaimend "stay away from MY TINA!" o nthe plane while "YES OR YES" playedi n the background, ayane wouldn't have been romantically involved with what was basically her brother, christie would have been evil and trying to kill helena, bayman and leon would have been fighitng, and elliot owuld be a fourteen year old boy.

I was refering to the main characters in the movie:
Ayane
Kasumi
Tina
Hayate
They kept their back stories correct.
Yes, the rest is shite. At least they didn't make Leon just a cameraman or something.

I haven't seen it or a trailer. But I'm a fairly big Sarah Carter fan, so I'm pretty much obligated to go.

I read this blurb on IMDb and it made me chuckle.
| IMDb.com wrote: |
'D.O.A.' Is D.O.A.
The Weinstein Co.'s D.O.A.: Dead or Alive lived up to the other meaning of its initials as it opened in 505 theaters with just $260,713 -- or $516 per theater. Not only did it not make the top ten, it ended up in 17th place behind a Hindi film, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, which opened in only 83 theaters. The movie was not shown in advance to critics. Those who dutifully decided to stand in line with everyone else after it opened said that the movie, based on the video game, was mostly soft porn, or as writer Ken Fox put it in TV Guide: "The action ... is targeted squarely at adolescent boys too young to rent porn and gamers too lazy to yank their own joy sticks." |
