According to Samba TV, the Mortal Kombat film became the biggest debut of HBO Max, a Warner Bros. streaming service. On the weekend of the launch, 3.8 million homes in the U.S. followed the story starring Cole Young.
The adaptation of the NetherRealm fighting franchise surpassed Godzilla vs Kong (3.6 million) and Zack Snyder's Justice League (1.8 million), two features awaited by fans around the world.
Perfect victory! 3.8 million U.S. households broadcast Mortal Kombat on HBO Max during its first weekend.
In addition, the film won the highest box office in a weekend for feature films “R-rated” (for those over 17 years old) since the beginning of the pandemic, generating $ 22.5 million in revenue in the North American country.
Financial success can help ensure a sequel and three more adaptations , according to Joe Taslim, the Sub-Zero actor in the Mortal Kombat film. This will happen if the first one succeeds.
Although the economic part is doing well, it is not possible to say the same about the criticisms of the specialized media. On the Metacritic website , the film has an average of only 44 out of a total of 40 reviews, with only eight considered positive. Many vehicles considered it “superficial” and only a few fights really excite spectators.
Mortal Kombat film director already has ideas for continuation
Director Simon McQuoid revealed that he already has an idea of how to continue the story in the possible sequence of the adaptation, even though it has not yet been confirmed.
