A warrior battles through a bleak, surreal future ruled by an evil wizard, relentlessly seeking a way home.
Epic and pulpy. A late-night trip at full speed. Emotionally it is heavy.

Heads up on brutal violence. That is past what the TV-14 on the box suggests. Beyond that, no sex or nudity and no swearing.
Our estimate: fine from about 16, higher than the TV-14 suggests, because of the violence.
How we rate: an AI reads what is known about each title and tags it 0 to 3; we check the tags against a hand-rated set and correct them by hand when readers tell us. Estimates, not a scene-by-scene review. Spot a mistake? Tell us.
A great warrior is displaced to the distant future by the evil shape-shifting wizard Aku. The world has become a bleak place under the rule of Aku, segregated into fantastic tribes and ruled by Aku's evil robot warlords. Jack travels this foreign landscape in search of a time portal that can return him to his home time so he can "undo the future that is Aku!".
It leaves things open rather than tying them up.
