Mortal Kombat always has a great story behind all the fighting. Mortal Kombat: Conquest takes you back where it all began.
MK Conquest has been misunderstood by many people when the series aired on TV. Most people who have seen the movies (and don't know much about Mortal Kombat) will wonder how it can be that the bad guys in the movies can be still alive in the series if the story in the series are like 1500 years ago ("Mortal" (remember?) Kombat). Others will wonder why the heroes in the movies are not in the series (they where not born yet). There are much more hesitations that people had with Mortal Kombat Conquest. What these people forget, is that the story of Mortal Kombat is big and complex. The fundemental and most important thing that made Mortal Kombat legendary is the fighting and story within it.
MK Conquest is in fact the best TV-serie ever made. The fighting techniques used in the series are extremely good. There was no single Mortal Kombat Conquest serie that was boring. Each serie was great and full of action.
The story, Taja (a thief), Siro (an ex-guard) and a Monk called Kung Lao are the good guys. Every bad guy in the movie wants Kung Lao dead because he won Mortal Kombat the last time and now they are afraid he will win again. The evil empiror Shao Kahn and the sorcerer Shang Tsung keep on trying to kill Kung Lao. This with a lot of things in the serie, make famous Mortal Kombat characters fight in the series. Sub-Zero, Scrorpion, Smoke, Reptile, Rayden, Chuan Chi, General Reiko are one of those famous MK characters you will see in the TV series.
If you are a MK fan, this will be a must. Others will enjoy it as well.
