Mortal Kombat is a 1995 action movie, directed by Paul W. S. Anderson. It is based on the popular Mortal Kombat series of fighting games by Midway. It was filmed in Los Angeles and on location in Thailand.

The movie received average reviews from critics, most notably a "thumbs up" rating from Gene Siskel on the television show Siskel & Ebert. It grossed roughly $70 million in the U.S., and an estimated $122 million worldwide. At the time, MK enjoyed the second-highest August opening after 1993's The Fugitive.

The film was considered to be the first major success for video-game movie adaptions, coming out a year after the critically disappointing Street Fighter and two years after the disastrous flop, Super Mario Bros.

A sequel to Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, was released in 1997, but is largely considered to be inferior to its predecessor.
