Mortal Kombat 1995 Movie
The 1990s began the trend of video game movie adaptations.
Granted, most of them were pretty rubbish, but a few good ones were made.
Over the years we have seen video games such as Super Mario, Street Fighter, Tomb Raider, and Resident Evil all get movie adaptations.

While the movie won't be considered a masterpiece and put alongside Empire Strikes Back, it was an enjoyable film that tried to stay true to the source material.
After the 1995 movie there was a sequel "Mortal Kombat Annihilation" which wasn't as well received by both fans and critics.
A third movie was ultimately cancelled, but 20 years later a new Mortal Kombat movie has been made.
The film was scheduled to release in January 2021 but has been pushed back until theatres can reopen as normal.
