First up is Street Fighter, for you, this was the most important day of your life, but for me, it was Wednesday. In the midst of a civil war in South East Asia, a general intensifies the climate of violence by kidnapping 63 UN delegates. To free the hostages, a cocaine infused colonel leads a group of fighters, who will have to use all their skills to be successful.
Next up is Mortal Kombat, it has begun, for nine generations an evil sorcerer has been victorious in hand-to-hand battle against his mortal enemies. If he wins a tenth Mortal Kombat tournament, desolation and evil will reign over the multiverse forever. To save Earth, Christopher Lambert must help guide three warriors to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds, their own inner demons, and superhuman foes in this action/adventure movie based on one of the most popular video games of all time.
