      Same here.
      I saw this during the summer of '95, and when I got back to school, my friends and I were talking about this fight. I mistakenly thought this was Sub-Zero. My eyes weren't as good then as they are now.
      Plus, I didn't hear Shao Khans voice saying, "Reptile." I think the sound drowned out the voice at the start because the speakers at the theater were very loud. I did eventually hear it when this came on TV a year later.

      ​ @inappropriately aligned metaphorical nourishment Well Reptile did look like that in the first three MK games which this movie is based of. Sure they could use some toxic ball or sth but for me it would ruin the perfect choreography with poor CGI at that times. Moreover the directors state that they almost run out of budget because of Goro.

      2. Has his own announcer (straight from the arcade games) present him as Reptile.
      3. Makes an entrance with kickass music and immediately goes ballistic through the wall.
      4. Proceeds to kick ass in one of the best action movie fights out there.
      5. Gets defeated by some epic bicycle kicking.
      6. Refuses to elaborate.
      7. Dies, but comes back in later games and still remains a dark horse fan favourite.

      In my experience people generally don't tend to dislike the original film, sure people may have some complaints on certain artistic liberties that were taken (for example, one liberty I disagree with was the severe lack of copious amounts of blood and bodily mutilation 2 of the defining traits that made MK what it is, granted such things might've caused the movie to get a higher rating and honestly I'd happily accept that if it meant more accuracy to the source material but I digress) but most can still enjoy the movie for what it is nonetheless. The sequel on the other hand imho gets tons of its hate for good reason, the quality of the sequel falls short and spits on the standard of quality set by the original.

    Reptile was such a badass in this film.
    My only gripe about the fight was Reptile absolutely kicking the shit out of Lui Kang and then it only took one throw to turn Reptile into a staggering mess that turns the fight completely around.
    I just feel they could of done that a little better. But still a great fight with alot of respect to Reptile as a badass.

      I don't think it was JUST the throw, Liu gets his legs there. Keep in mind he got absolutely ambushed here and kicked through a brick wall, not surprising that it took him a moment to get in the swing. You also see Liu start using his anger/emotion as a motivator in the second half of the fight - keep in mind this guy is MAD as hell, he literally showed up to this tournament to kill Shang Tsung.

    This and the Johnny Cage vs. Scorpion fight make this movie, with all it's flaws, among my favorite martial arts movies of all time. There's an eb and flow with the fights, a back and forth that shows the main characters being easily overpowered at first but still at least landing some blows, then getting back up and finishing the fight.
    The sub zero one I felt was a let down, and let's not talk about Sonya vs. Kano.

    Can we have a moment of appreciation for seeing two trained martial artists who clearly have spent a long time working on the choreography for this scene. For seeing a movie that backs the camera off so we can see every punch and kick thrown and seeing the expressions on the fighters faces. For seeing real actors being in a real room with real props for them to interact with. This movie clearly has a passion that movies today don’t for action.
