I watched the movie couples of thousands times (from 1995-2011)and i was always asking myself which fight was better
Scorpion vs Johnny Cage
or Reptile vs Liu Kang

i guess Scorpion vs Johnny Cage is slightly better because of its brutality

Johnny Cage vs Scorpion for sure. But that might just be because I hate the actor who played Liu kang I was hoping he would die the whole movie.

Well those would have to be the two best Fight Scenes in the movie.

I'ma go with Liu Kang Vs Reptile.

Liu Kang vs Reptile

Johnny Cage VS Scorpion, hands down.

The fast paced fight choreography, the "Scorpion's Lair" set design, the music, Ed Boon's voice work as Scorpion ("Get down here!"), the brutal "bloody lava" finish... and the "Friendship" at the end. Easily the best fight of the film.

However, Liu Kang VS Reptile is a close second.

Its a tie between those two for me. I can't decide.

Liu Kang vs. Reptile.

I guess Reptile vs. Liu Kang fight was faster. because of the nature of Reptile it should be that way. in the first game Reptile was a faster character than the others. i guess they tried to put that into the movie - fight

Cage vs Scorpion FTW. The majority of the fight looks brutal and un-choreographed. Love the intensity.

Cage vs Scorpion. The music and the pace the two had against one another made the fight great. Scorpion got more hits off of Cage, but Cage held his own and won the fight. I just got this on Blu-Ray in the mail...very good video game to movie transition. It was more loyal to its video game counterpart than Street Fighter was.

Johnny Cage has the best fights. I would say out of all three his were the best,

The Reptile fight was pretty bad ass....The music, the brutality of the whole thing...

Cage and Scorpion comes in a close second...I agree that it felt very raw...Can't blame anyone for picking either one, as they are both top notch...

"You are tearing me apart, Lisa!"" The Room..a cinematic masterpiece.

No love for the Sub-Zero fight? I have to go with Cage and Scorpion as the best fight. Liu Kang and Reptile fight gets a minus because of the silly bicycle kicks at the end. I know it's in the game but it looks funny and weird here.

Cage vs Scorpion is the perfect MK fight. It had everything from brutal moves, to back and forth action, to a fatality and friendship finisher.

Liu vs Reptile was a close 2nd, but the Cage vs Scorp fight showed the true potential of an MK film in the right hands. I like the MK Legacy series okay, but so far nothing in it has come close to the first MK movie.

That was my favorite. The first image reminded me of Empire Strikes Back.
