    another great video

    MORTAL KOMBAT DIDNT SUCK
  • k.sixx
    very true :pinch: but second one did
  • ThatCreepyChick
    I second that, but I gotta say that most people unanimously agree the second one
    blew donkey balls (poor donkey) They had an opportunity to do so much and
    instead opted to show as many characters as possible with little to no story
    whatsoever.
  • JLeaber  - Great Review
    This is the review i have been waiting for since NC posted the list and it did
    not disappoint

    DOES NOT COMPUTE! XDDDD
  • rayvac
    God I hated this movie, actually saw it in the theater. Load of crap, even
    the action was horrible. No good fighting (yea in a movie called Double
    Dragon), that's right no good fighting.

    Brutal to watch. Yuck. Great Review NC
  • Jackmunch
    And of course, this is going to lead to the NC having amnesia and doing the top
    11 forgotten Nostalgia classics.
    But this, was hilarious. You had me cracking up with the Mickey Mouse and Popeye
    impressions. I look forward to Howard the Duck.
  • GamerKT
    Yes, you have been dying a lot =p I coulda swore you were gonna reference the
    movie Max Payne at the end...ah well.
  • OuijaSlayer
    Bison yelling "Of course!" shall never get old. ;D
  • Namine  - haha
    AWESOME LEGEND!!
  • Movie-Brat
    Awesome review and I see that you used the M. Bison again, I never get tired of
    that. And I also see that you acknowledge what fans have noticed.
  • Destron D-69  - a few more Deaths and you tie with Optimus Prime
    ... "I do believe in Nostalgia Critic, I do believe in Nostalgia Critic"
  • TheDramaticMonarch  - I Survived the "Apocalypse"!
    I...I...

    Just when I thought these movies couldn't get any stranger, along strolls
    "Double Dragon".

    No really, I spent a good chunk of the review in a complete state of stupor on
    my face. I mean...why...how? How many keggers of acid were involved in the
    "creation" of this movie?! Absurd doesn't even begin to describe this
    thing!

    But I kinda dug how you got a little "meta" on us at the end. Let's hope
    you survive through the next review. May Optimus Prime stay by your side!

    Oh, and M. Bison returns, yay!
  • animerocksautistic  - I seem to be having video issues
    The video was slow to load then just stops at 10 minutes. Anyone else getting
    that?
  • Lrox
    I seem to have the same problem if you replace the word minute with second.
  • MoronUnited
    NC never fails to disappoint.........great episode as always! =D
  • Rhomega
    I was wondering if you were going to use the "Of course!" gag. Other
    than that, what a piece of cinematic garbage.

    You're the Nostalgia Critic: you watch horrible movies very, VERY loosely based
    on video games so I don't have to!
  • Rockula
    Every movie should have a suicidal mailman.
  • Rattrap007
    Love the Bison gag. Never gets old. I just wish I had an animated avatar of your
    mugshot. That was hilarious!
  • panopticon20  - ...
    I was actually waiting for you to do this, just so you could destroy my precious
    childhoof memories of this astounding, and groundbreaking, film.

    =P

    But, seriously, I know that 90% of all of the movies I loved as a kid were all
    pretty bad *cough*Power Rangers Movie*cough*, but I still love them for old
    time's sake.

    Great review, as always.
  • Zenergy
    You have been dying a lot lately. Maybe you should go on a Die-et.

    Mortal Kombat was a better movie than Jurassic Park was.
  • OmegaWarrior
    This may be the best NC since The Wizard! Definitely worth the wait!
  • NegaJoe
    Hey come on man, just hit the critic with a phoenix down, he'll get better. 8)

    Is it me or are the movies NC reviews getting more and more craptacular? But
    that's okay though, that only makes the review funnier. I think it's time for
    the critic to review......(gulp)........Mortal Kombat Annihilation.:(
  • SimonW  - YAYS!!!
    As always with your videos, I rate 5 before watching the actual video!

    I remember this movie (barely), it was so long ago since I saw it I forgot
    mostly about it! But, since it was a shitty movie I did not pay attention to it.
    Anyway, onto reviewing your review! lol.

    I dunno, I thought Mortal Kombat (the movie) was mildly decent. But no, I can't
    recall any movie based off video games that would be classified as
    "great" or even "good".

    "It's the most shit-smacking-whore-eating-digusting piece of retro-ass I
    have ever seen in my entire life!" Did I sense a slight Cheaster A Bum-esque
    in that comment (though for a negative rather then positive effect)?
    "No, this is the plot to Surf Ninjas." Aside from the whole
    medallion-thing, YEAH!
    OH MY GOD!!! I don't believe it! It is the bad-guy from Terminator 2: Judgement
    Day! Except, with differant coloured hair and a goatee and dodgy moustache! But
    it is the same guy!
    Yeah, "New Angeles"...since when did they change the name in 2007?
    Well, at least the main "heroes" are not called Bimmy and Jimmy. :D
    OH MY GOD (again?)! The Power Core gang leader lady is that lady who plays
    Phoebe in Charmed!
    Geez, they DO just get random people to play in this movie! ;D

    Anyway, a great review (as ever) and look forward to your next video, NC! ;D

  • Erinaceus  - Robert Patrick: T-1000 Ice
    I didn't even know there was a movie for Double Dragon until now...

    I couldn't be bothered to identify any of the other performers in this film...I
    was too busy gawking at Robert Patrick's hair! Something has finally supplanted
    Kurt Russel's flattop in Stargate as the standard-bearer for ill-conceived hair
    cuts in major motion pictures.

    But on the subject of game-movies, I liken their sucking to expecting a mechanic
    to pull off successful open heart surgery. Though you've given him the right
    tools, he's the wrong guy for the job. So if the game-movie stigma is ever to
    be lifted, it must be headed up by the right director. As opposed to cynically
    handing it off to professional hacks like Brett Ratner, or worse, people who
    shouldn't be legally allowed to use a camera to even film home movies. I speak,
    of course of a certain German fellow whose name shall not be mentioned as I
    believe the utterance of that name conjures a profanity far far worse than any
    swear word in any language.

  • ShadowMan
    "I just found out I have cancer.
    HAR HAR HAR HAR!"

    That made me laugh so hard. Amd Bison... classic
  • ShadowMan
    ^whoops... typo "and"
  • A Knothole Resident  - suggesiton for another video game movie
    The next shitty video game movie review should be Sonic the Movie from the 1999.
    It was basically an anime split into 2 episodes but packaged in the US as a
    Sonic movie but it was just full of fail. You thought Pokeman the First Movie
    was bad, check out Sonic the Movie. LOL @ Ice 1000
  • Cloba
    Hey, that movie wass pretty decent! It's certainly better than all the other
    movies based off video games. :angry:
  • Wermin
    Ehhh... no
  • Cloba
    I WANT A HONKING MUGSHOT!! :lol:
  • Fairmonkey
    Great Vid NC. It's one of your funniest in a long time.
  • Erinaceus  - I just IMDB'd This Sucker...
    It claims one of the film's writers is Paul Dini! Paul Dini! Of Batman: TAS
    fame! I guess nobody bats 1.000.

    Oh and to reiterate: Robert Patrick's hair is the worst thing in this film.
    Even worse than all the mohawks (even Bo-Abobo or Bo-Boboboboo(?):P whatever)
    worse than Alyssa Milano's stint as a butch blonde, worse than its shameless
    plug of its own game.
  • Punky  - OF COURSE!!!
    Every time you die Doug, I become a Widow again so STOP DYING OR I'M CALLING MY
    LAWYER!!
    This review kick Double dragon in the nuts and Make Bison come to life again
    KICKASS!!
  • HOTsuma91
    The first half was funnier than the 2nd half, lol. Very good point and example
    about having the subject matter WITHIN the realm of the movie, the LotR example
    was brilliant!

    I didn't really like how the Bison joke had a prep for it, it should have just
    happened. More natural, but it's your video! Haha, and the same goes with coming
    back after being shot to say something. But again, just noting here. I really
    look forward to the next one!
    -C

    PS: I have to agree with the other members, Mortal Kombat wasn't THAT bad, not
    nearly as bad as Street Fighter or this. After all, they're making another MK
    movie, what's the status of SF and DD? Zip. Thank God. If you thought MK had
    pointless action sequences, MK:A is even worse. If you don't review it, I will
    after I finish my current one.
  • FREAKFANATIC  - So many bad videogame movies!
    Its almost like if Hollywood like to piss us off,'cause if that's the case, then
    way to go Hollywood, 'cause you are doing a fantastic job, you bastards! >:(
