Mortal Kombat 2 has got some positive early reactions from fans and critics, calling it a vast improvement on the original movie. The sequel to the 2021 adaptation transports the action to a new tournament where the champions of Earthrealm are forced to battle it out once again.

This time, they're joined by some new reinforcements, including Karl Urban's Johnny Cage and Adeline Rudolph's Kitana. Both of the new arrivals have been at the center of early praise for the movie, alongside its "arcade energy" and "faithful" fights. Check out some of the first reactions below.
