Definite solid entry!

May I amend your comment though? It can also be called "Mortal Kombat" unless that's how it's known where you're from. No biggie.

EDIT:
I realize Immortal Combat and Mortal Kombat are two totally movies. My apologies. Your pick is fun B movie fest territory.

Yeah, that’s why I picked it. A bunch of more obvious ones immediately came to mind but went with a little deeper cut. And....Roddy Piper!

The high-stakes in Karate Kid Part II made part 3's storyline pale in comparison. So much so, it was felt a proverbial wedge had to be put between Mr. Miyagi and Daniel to give the premise any kind of weight.

It's hard to believe 20 years since its release Fight Club addressed people feeling worthless because of their 9 to 5 jobs considering the struggles of entry level work these days.
