Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

This is maybe the worst movie of 2016... wait this was made in 2016? It looks like a 90s Nickelodeon straight to DVD movie with CGI that was made from 3D Movie Maker program.The acting is not to bad if this was 1995. (sadly it's 2016 made) The over all plot is good and would make for a nice story. (if done correctly)sadly it wasn't. We see our hero ask for help in fighting as he has zero skills to speak of. So the skilled worrier teaches him... 1 thing. Only 1 simple move (hold hands out). Then somehow magically he becomes a super fighting ninja that's taking down 50 to 60 guys with no problem. Top that off with what looks like half the movie cut out (very bad editing) They free the princess and use a catapult to get away, The next scene you see the princess locked up and the main bad guy walking into frame to attack our hero...WTF just happened? The main bad guy should be miles away from them and where the heck did the wizard and warrior go? Anyways... He saves the day and goes back home all to some how make his own video game in 1 night..1...NIGHT! based off his "adventure" to only sell the game for $25,000 to save their house from getting taken away. Even by 1990s standers this was a bad movie. Don't waste your time.

A bit funny, but trying too hard only to give us a mindless entertainment. With the presence of a very good actor Dave Bautista and an action-packed trailer, it's very unfortunate to get what seems to be a spoiled food out of a sought after delicacy.The cast has a lot of potentials however they were all murdered by poor scripting, and exaggerated acting by some actors.The plot is somehow interesting, to see some kind of a gamer turned to be the actual hero himself, but only turned out to be a cheesy fantasy action film that only exists if there's a beautiful woman to be saved.Another downside of the film were its special effects, where it seems to forget that it's already 2000's and we are in the era where visual effects are one of the most significant factors when it comes to fantasy films.Anyway, despite these disadvantages, the movie delivered decent action sequences (martial arts and sword fights) and a cool bike chase scene.

THe title says it all.Hoenstly folks , even I grew up watching a ( white) kid in king arthurs court and the various spin offs.I have seen so many anime, that the whole going to a world not your own, whisked away against your will, motif, loses its luster.THis was a bloody rip off of that film forbidden kingdom, which starred jackie chan and jet lee, and COULD have been great, if not for the measly and pitiful excuse for a boy child that was the starring lead.THIS movie is the same. And yes, I do just so happen to be a gamer, and have seen a FUDGE ton of films and things, been into history, and all that...JAZZ. THIS MOVIE WAS CHEAP AND TACTLESS!!!! GARBAGE! AVOID! CIAO!!

The word on the street was that this was a riff on one of my all-time favorite films, Forbidden Kingdom 2008, so I could not resist checking it out.(Word to the wise, if you have not already seen FK, and you like MMA and/or Wushu and/or Fantasy and/or Adventure, check it out. FK has humble beginnings, features two of the greatest cinematic martial artists of all time - Jackie Chan and Jet Li -- a killer script, great scenery, and solid performances. Some reviewers, including this one, think it is one of the best of its kind ever done.) Let's start with what Warriors Gate was intended to be, and work from that.The production team clearly thought they would "improve" on FK by adding more "teen humor." Presumably they also felt this would more than compensate for the film's considerably lighter "feel" and the awkward void formed by not having ANY famous film martial artists at all.Also, Forbidden Kingdom had a certain edge of malice and unpredictability in the script which, oddly, only increased its impact and its fan base. This film lacks those features as well and, on its best day in its best suit, comes across more as "Forbidden Kingdom Lite," or perhaps even a Disney knockoff of the original.Which is not to say it is not worth a watch. A lot of effort was put into the humor aspect (as explained above) and this does keep things moving along.(For example -- if you are film buff, you will remember fondly the famous tag line from Airplane 1980 - "Don't call me Shirley" which became a sort of iconic inside joke for years afterwards. This script contains a number of attempts to mimic that sort of dialog, my favorite being -- "KILL HIM! -- slashing noise -- "NO, NOT HIM. HIM.") Bottom Line: One hour and 45 minutes of reasonable entertainment. However, it suffers from the "curse" common to all knock-offs. Unless you see the original, you will never know what you are missing.
