Mortal Kombat: Legacy

The first episode of the new live action Mortal Kombat web series Mortal Kombat: Legacy has been released. At twelve and a half minutes this first episode is a quick watch and may only be worth watching since it is the first episode. However, several key character are introduced; Jax (Michael Jai White; Spawn), Kurtis Stryker (Tahmoh Penikett; Battlestar Galactica), Sonya Blade (Jeri Ryan; Star Trek: Voyager) and Kano (Darren Shahlavi). Overall, it seems that this series has potential and a decent budget to carry it. It was definitely fun to see all the little easter eggs hidden within the episode and I can imagine that there are many more to come. The acting is fairly decent but at some moments the blood splatter looks a little cheesy. I'm willing to overlook that as long as everything else is up to par. Take a moment to watch and let me know how you feel about this new series.
