Mortal Kombat
MMA fighter Cole Young seeks out Earth's greatest
champions in order to stand against the enemies of
Outworld in a high stakes battle for
the universe. Mortal Kombat is a mysterious,
intergalactic tournament of ancient martial arts.
Shaolin Monk Liu Kang, from Earth, gets invited as a
competitor. The movie has a fine mix of action and gore.
The fighting chorography was amazing especially from
both Scorpion & Sub-Zero and the fatalities and
brutalities were just enough for anyone who's a fan to
Mortal Kombat. Not for the younger kids.

Gunda
A pig and her litter, a one legged chicken, and some
cows are the main cast in this fine documentary, Gunda,
Viktor Kosakovskiy's
understated
cinematic plea for animal rights. Gunda is an enormous
sow that has just given birth to a dozen small piglets.
This is their story of life down on the farm. This is
not your cute animal film, though it has that too. It's
more akin to those moments of serenity and joy that can
arise when we are watching babies move or small children
explore. We feel both intimacy and otherness, and
perhaps even bewilderment.
