Lewis Tan tweets: Mortal Kombat is violent, even production.

The cast of the Mortal Kombat movie consists mostly of highly skilled martial artists and the fight scenes are promised to be real and very authentic. The actors have to train and exercise day and night to prepare for the real, albeit choreographed, fight scenes. Real punches are thrown and most of the actors do their own stunts and sometimes it ends in injury.
