In the game, Jack is "the black knight," an invincible warrior. His best moments come from beating back the hordes of villains on his favorite video game. He's low on self-confidence and funds and the perennial victim of a gang of bullies from his high school. It's not a good time for teen Jack Thornton (the excellent Uriah Shelton) when ENTER THE WARRIORS GATE opens. Occasional profanity includes "s-t," "butt," "a-hole," and "d-kweed." Teen action lovers will find much to like.
The princess is strong, skilled in martial arts, and able to hold her own against the armies of men who would capture her, except when she's hanging from handcuffs or held captive. In a running "joke," a henchman runs his sword through the midsection of innocents. Expect fearsome battles with swordplay, knives, all manner of medieval weaponry, fire, and many deaths during the explosive combat. The beleaguered young hero is no sooner out of danger than he's caught up in another fight for his life. He meets assorted warriors and a magician, all the while learning as much about himself as he does about ancient codes of behavior and the skills of the martial arts.
On his mission to find and save a beautiful princess, he encounters a powerful villain who wants to marry the princess, kill her, and then become emperor of China. Parents need to know that Enter the Warriors Gate is an action-packed, martial arts fantasy-adventure in which a mild-mannered, bullied teen is magically transported to a barbaric world.
