Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Sluggish and low-energy.
– Caryn James,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
rotten:
The ragtag adaptation by Michael Part and Robert Levy is familiar fodder run through a blender too high and too fast.
– Leonard Klady,

rotten:
It's a missed opportunity for introducing the Mortal Kombat generation to medieval combat that was really mortal.
– Carrie Rickey,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
22 May 2013
rotten:
It is numbingly bland, homogenized and deflated by an utter lack of original wit or charm. Worst of all, it is subtly but conspicuously condescending to its target audience.

Sitting through it, I found myself shuddering at what Disney may have in store for next summer.
