Plot Synopsis
Jack Bronson (Uriah Shelton) lives in a part-time virtual world. Bullied at school and living with his single mom who is struggling to meet her mortgage payment.
So every chance he gets, Jack escapes into the world of computer games - via his fearless avatar, the Black Knight.
One day, Mr. Chang, the antiques dealer, offers him a family heirloom - a mysterious Chinese chest. Little does Jack know that the beautiful box that so intrigues him is actually a "warrior's gate," a magical portal into the mesmerizing world of ancient China.
One night, warrior Zhao (Mark Chao) suddenly appears in Jack's room and entrusts him with the daunting task of guarding Princess Sulin (Ni Ni). When Sulin is suddenly kidnapped, Jack leaps into the enchanted chest and travels back to ancient China.
With the help of reluctant Zhao and a trickster wizard named Wu (Francis Ng), they set off on a coming-of-age journey across a vast, spectacular landscape littered width villains and obstacles, to save Sulin from Arun (Dave Bautista), the evil barbarian warlord.
Cowardly Jack must learn to face his fears, conquer an unknown universe, become a skilled warrior and save both the princess and her kingdom. Only then will he be able to return home and meet the challenges of his own contemporary world.
