Continuity mistake: Kung Lao summons his hat to finish off Nitara, but Shang Tsung, who was right in front of the hat and was not shown to have moved out of there, was nowhere to be seen. Also, Kung Lao gets Nitara to land on his hat despite the two of them flying away from it in a straight line and not shown to have turned at any point.

This movie felt half-baked. The opening scene was really strong, but from there on out, it felt simultaneously rushed and dragged.
The much talked about Mortal Kombat tournament never actually happens, and the impromptu fight scenes, complete with the highly anticipated faithful fatalities, don't occur until the movie is almost over, and most of them don't last very long.
Hopefully if a sequel gets made, they will stick with what worked in the film and vastly improve on its many flaws.
