Nothing too intense, but the warning is there for you, just in case)Official IMDb Page

In a spectacular display of blood, guts, and effects-heavy martial arts battles, this new take on the over-the-top story of the Mortal Kombat fighting games perhaps bites off a little more than it can chew by attempting what is essentially an origin story and an Avengers-esque superhero team-up all in one. As a result, the first half stalls out a bit as it backs up a dump truck of exposition, and even then some characters that really deserve more time in the spotlight end up being shallow and forgettable. Still, Mortal Kombat finds its footing in the second half and delivers a gleefully cheesy and entertaining take on one of gaming's most historic franchises and a solid starting point for future films. From New Line Cinema comes the explosive new cinematic adventure Mortal Kombat, inspired by the blockbuster video game franchise, which most recently enjoyed the most successful video game launch in its history, Mortal Kombat 11. The film is helmed by award-winning Australian commercial filmmaker Simon McQuoid, marking his feature directorial debut, and produced by James Wan, Todd Garner, McQuoid, and E. Bennett Walsh. Mortal Kombat debuts in theaters and HBO Max on April 23, 2021.

As a girl, the elementary school she attended burned down, after which she was bused to an affluent, predominantly white private school in Palos Verdes, CA. There, she was constantly challenged to defend the negative characterizations of her hometown. “I felt like I was bridging two worlds,” says Camille. “One where kids were dropped off in Benzes and Bentleys, and another that was wrongly stereotyped for gangs and violence. It was like being in a fish bowl. As an object of curiosity to my classmates, I became profoundly aware of my blackness.” Things changed for Camille when she got her hands on the works of phenomenal, black women writers such as Gwendolyn Brooks, Ntozake Shange, Maya Angelou and Octavia Butler. Their written word inspired her and helped her to find her own voice. Camille began to write—poetry, songs, plays and eventually screenplays. Today, Camille has sold screenplays to many of the major studios such as Sony, Universal, New Line Cinema, Fox TV and Disney, and has worked with producers such as Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal, Stacey Snider, Marc Platt, Todd Garner and Debra Chase. One of her most memorable experiences was co-writing the screenplay Golddiggaz with the late Oscar-nominated director, John Singleton, a friend and mentor. Camille has produced and directed six short films. Her short, Cellular, won Best Short Narrative Film at Boston's Roxbury International Film Festival. In 2019, Camille was honored to be a finalist and the drama alternate in the prestigious Disney|ABC TV Writing Fellowship; and in 2018, she was one of eleven filmmakers selected in the Producers Guild of America Power of Diversity Workshop.

At 17 years old, Todd Garner wrote down “CFO” for career objectives on his mock-up resume for a high school project. In thirty years of work and through seven job changes, Todd managed to fulfill that career objective and still find time to qualify for the Boston Marathon in multiple. Todd is one of nine children, raised by a school teacher father that inspired many. Often, familial decisions were monetary-based, which inspired Todd to achieve a financial position where he never had to say “no” to his children. Being overly dedicated to his work, he had to reevaluate and find ways to fine-tune his work/life balance with a simple rule, “have dinner with your family.”Trent Christensen hosts Todd Garner, CFO of ConMed, in an interview that proves that a fourteen-hour workday may not always be the best tactic to success. Be early.
