Should you see it? No.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (1997)
How bad is it? It's a sequel to a movie about a video game and isn't even true to either of those.
Should you see it? No.
Uwe Boll has made a name for himself for directing flashy but terrible films based on video games, but this is worse than any of his (in my humble opinion). It's merely continuous fight set pieces with guys doing flips and somersaults with CGI effects layered over them. There is no plot. There is no characterization. There is no connection to the game Mortal Kombat, except for some names. I chuckled exactly once, as a bad guy is turned into a box - I didn't see that coming.
Should you see it? No.
