Not super knowledgeable about Mortal Kombat, and haven't been following the movie at all, but at a glance I've seen much worse casting choices. This will likely still be ass, since it's Current Year, but they could have done a lot worse.
Depending on early reports, I might end up watching this (for free almost certainly), as it is always interesting to check out video game movies...usually bad interesting, but still. This might be so bad it's...well, still bad, but interestingly so. Who knows.
As is tradition, with Kano in the original movie carrying so hard they literally retconned that version of him into the game and erased his original form.
Only the Scorpion vs Sub-Zero stuff was good. They could have based an entire movie around the first 15 minutes or so. Everything else was slop with the exception of Kano, who was the only one who was both believable and fun to watch. The main character with his literal plot armour was annoying and lame.

First one had some good fights, especially between Scorpion and Sub-zero. Kano was a fun character, look up a video of him being an ass to everyone.
Kano carried the entire movie on his back

And they made Liu Kang extra zesty.
