The Warriors Gate (2017)

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Fantastic!

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Jack Bronson (Uriah Shelton) is very good at video games, not so good when bullied (Dakota Daulby). His character is the Black Knight. His single mom (Sienna Guillory) has serious financial woes. Jack helps out by working for Mr. Chang, who gifts Jack with an ancient chest, or basket. Through a series of circumstances, Jack finds himself in magical ancient China needing to save the princess (Ni Ni) from Arun the Cruel and Terrible (Dave Bautista). He is aided by a fighter (Mark Chao) and a wizard (Francis Chun-Yu Ng).The film is designed for the tween crowd. It has funny moments while it moves like a video game. Side kick Brutus (Zha Ka) provides humor.Guide: No F-words, sex, or nudity. Urination scene. Language like "the shitz" my LOL moment

Especially like Dave Bautista as the villain in this movie. Bautista's proving to be a very entertaining guy. Not on the level of The Rock just yet when It comes to wrestlers turn actors but definitely someone I will look out for if he's in a movie.The warriors gate is the wishful fantasy of all gamers. That the skills they required while putting in long hours in front of a game screen could possibly pay off in real life. Of course we don't want gamers going around mimicking Grand Thief Auto or thinking combat from your couch playing Call of Duty is as real as real combat.Which is why the movie used a backdrop of ancient China (That and the movie was backed by Chinese mula). It's a classic game plot of a young hero having to though the Terran, battle an army of warriors, and get to the last master in order to save the princess and free her world, and the movie plays out like a group of geeks talking about the stereotypes of video games on some YouTube video. Aiding this gamer is a Chinese Kung Fu warrior breed Form birth to protect the princess and a wizard who gives you special potions and stuff along the way. Both of these characters are actually greatly underused in this film to. The movie holds a resemblance to 2008's the Forbidden Kingdom, which also under uses it's primary characters(Those characters being played by superstars Jackie Chan and Jet Li). I would actually recommend seeing that movie over this one. The best part of the Eneters the Warriors Gate is the relationship between the gamer and his Kung fu master guide. The gamer is suppose to be a fish out of water, but mostly the movie is about the gamer trying to loosen up his uptight warrior friend. Like I said the film's whole persona is basically geeks talking about the basics of every game. Just OK, but Jackie Chan and Jet Li did do it batter a few years ago in The Forbidden Kingdom. The action and adventure escalates perfectly like a game getting more difficult, but at times it does get far too long as it's a lot of talk that does not seem to end when it should, but it's worth taking a look just to see Bautista's perfect cartoon villainy.http://cinemagardens.com/

A teenager is magically transported to China and learns to convert his video game skills into those of a Kung Fu warrior. Enter The Warrior's Gate or also known as Warrior's Gate is a 2016 Action, Adventure and Fantasy Film starring Dave Bautista and Sienna Guillory. From what i have seen so far about this film hardly anyone talks about it plus it got mixed reviews so far and it's getting it's release on the US soon the movie of course was released way sooner here in my Country around February 2nd and it just came out on DVD so i rent the film to see it and judge it on my own and personally i really liked this movie a lot. First of all it's indeed a copy paste of The Forbidden Kingdom the 2008 film starring Jackie Chan and Jet Li of course that doesn't mean that the movie is bad besides we live in a world where everything is not original and we get many reboots, sequels, prequels and requels everyday so that doesn't surprise me a lot. The performances are quite good with Ni Ni who plays Su Lin stealing the show for the most part, Batista as Arun is also pretty good and he makes a far better villain in here than he did in Kickboxer, Guillory who plays Annie our main protagonist mother is in the film for a short time but she is quite good as well and it's good that Sienna still stars in movies from time to time also Mark Chao plays Zhoo and he is the badass character of the movie as for Uriah Shelton who plays Jack i really liked his character and as a Gamer myself he has my vote. The movie was also written by Luc Besson (The Fifth Element, Transporter, Taken) and for the most part the effects also looked good except the big Final Battle where a character turns into a Power Rangers villain and he looks really bad plus i wish the movie took place more in the Present day than the Past but overall i laughed a lot and the action was really cool plus the Opening was pretty EPIC it's not for everyone sure but don't listen to critics or some of the reviewers in here just judge it on your own interests.

Kills Time with Enjoyable Action and Fun The movie actually surprised in Liberal 2017 Social Justice Anti-Certain culture Hollywood.It's a bit like old school 90's film. A teen becomes a hero by going back in time and becoming somewhat of a fighter. That is all you really need to know.It's a bit of a mixed genre film. It's fantasy, with sci-fi, witch lots of action and a bit of teenage angst and romance. If you love 80's movies and not a shallow feminized Liberal dirt bag with dreams of Social Justice domination, then this is a fun time.A solid 7.5 out of 10.
