AI GeneratedJamal, a theme park employee, is transported to 1328 via a mysterious medallion. After surviving the perils of a medieval court by posing as a jester and accidentally saving a tyrannical king, he joins a rebel cause to restore the rightful queen. Following a climactic battle, he returns to the present, only to be transported again to ancient Rome.
At a theme park called Medieval World in Los Angeles,
employee Jamal is sent to clean up
the ditch after having talked back to his boss.
He and his co-worker can't help interrupting
their duties to play around with swords,
wishing they could instead work for Castle World,
the superior rival park that will open soon.
Suddenly Jamal notices there's a gold medallion
in the ditch and guesses it must be worth a lot.
He reaches into the water to grab it,
but the medallion starts glowing
and pulls Jamal into the ditch. When he resurfaces,
he finds himself in an unfamiliar lake
and swims to the shore to meet a drunk man called Nolt.
Noticing the man's clothes and the area he's standing in,
Jamal assumes he's accidentally
reached Castle World.
At that moment Nolt falls unconscious
and Jamal checks on him only to notice he isn't
breathing.
His cries for help aren't heard so he gets ready for CPR,
however Nolt's breath smells
so bad that Jamal opts for using breath spray instead.
This causes Nolt to immediately wake up and claim Jamal saved his life.
Then Nolt takes Jamal to his camp,
but Jamal is disgusted by these living conditions and
calls Nolt's food roadkill.
When Nolt explains that people hate him for failing the queen.
Jamal doesn't take him seriously
and gives him $2 before leaving, but Nolt throws the
bills in the fire.
Afterward, Jamal crosses the woods to find the freeway,
only to end up on an old farm
and almost gets run over by Sir Percival and his men on horseback.
He moves out of the way just in time
and then tries to go after the knights to call them out,
only to discover a huge fortress.
Assuming this is Castle World, Jamal tries to enter, only to be
stopped by the guards demanding to know who he is.
Jamal explains he's from Florence and Normandy,
referring to the famous intersection in LA,
but the guards mistake him for a messenger
from the area called Normandy and let him pass,
saying the king has been waiting for him.
Once inside, Jamal sees a huge smelly market
and a puppet show about the legend of the Black Knight.
Then he gets distracted when he sees Victoria,
the princess chambermaid.
Jamal tries hitting on her but she doesn't understand his modern slang,
although when he asks for paper
and her number she's impressed that he can read and write.
At that moment, Percival arrives
and touches all the women inappropriately, including Victoria.
Jamal recognizes him as the guy who almost ran him over
and calls him out for harassing women,
causing Percival to pull out his sword with a threat.
Jamal still thinks this is part of the act
and doesn't take him seriously, but before
things can escalate, the Chamberlain Philip arrives
to take Jamal to see the king.
Jamal is then taken to the throne room,
where he meets King Leo and Princess Regina.
Leo wants to know when the Duke of Normandy will
be coming to marry Regina, and thinking he's
supposed to improv for the stage, Jamal answers Tuesday.
Regina isn't happy because it's an
arranged marriage, but Leo is pleased
and promises a ride back to town after Jamal rests.
Afterward, Philip gives Jamal a tour of the castle,
and Jamal stops by the bathroom to relieve
himself. However this is a medieval-style privy
and he finds it disgusting, so he can't do it.
Suddenly Jamal notices a lot of people rushing outside
and Philip explains they're going to
watch the execution of the rebellion leader.
Thinking it'll be a show, Jamal joins the crowd
and watches the execution, grabbing the head
when it falls because he's impressed by the realistic
prop. However, he soon realizes it's a real head and he passes out.
Moments later, Jamal wakes up
in his room while Victoria takes care of him.
Jamal starts panicking because he saw a real
execution, and his mood gets worse
when Victoria says it's the year 1328, meaning he must accept
Except he's traveled back in time and it's all real.
Suddenly Victoria begins undoing her dress
and Jamal thinks they're about to get frisky,
but she's only taking out her medallion to show him it matches his.
The medallion is a symbol of the rebels,
and Victoria wants Jamal to help her kill Leo
because he murdered the previous king to steal
the throne, but the kingdom should belong
to the widowed queen.
All the rebels that tried before were decapitated
and their heads are now on spikes outside.
A terrified Jamal wants to leave,
but Philip suddenly arrives to tell him that his ride
is ready.
Obviously the ride turns out to be a horse and not a car,
and since Jamal doesn't know
how to ride horses.
He tells everyone that he's a messenger
but also a court jester as a cover.
Then Jamal tries to ride the horse,
but the animal doesn't make it easy for him.
It makes him fall multiple times
and drags him all over the area, which causes everyone
to laugh because they think it's part of a jester act.
Leo invites Jamal to ride with him
but Jamal struggles with the horse don't end,
causing Leo to think he's very dedicated
to his craft, which he respects.
Later at the castle, Victoria takes care of Jamal's injuries,
but he freaks out when he realizes he's being treated with leeches.
After taking them all off, Jamal tells Victoria
that he has to return to the lake where he found
Nolt, which shocks Victoria
because Nolt is supposed to be dead. Their conversation is
interrupted by Philip, who informs Jamal
the king has invited him to tonight's banquet.
Jamal doesn't want to go.
But Victoria reminds him of the impaled heads
and he quickly changes his mind.
During the banquet, Jamal is disgusted
by Leo's manners and the way he grabs food,
but he's gotta pretend he loves everything to avoid dying.
Then Leo asks him to dance because he heard
that Normans are excellent dancers.
Jamal tries some classical moves to follow
the medieval music, but he looks ridiculous,
so instead he teaches the court musicians
a modern tune he can sing and dance to.
It's awkward at first, but soon everyone catches
on and Jamal teaches them the moves
to the song Dance to the Music so they can have fun together.
While everyone enjoys the music on the dance floor,
Victoria gives two servants some bread.
Soon the king is also on the dance floor and while he's distracted,
Regina grabs Jamal and kisses him.
Percival sees them and threatens to kill Jamal
for touching the princess, so Jamal runs to the
balcony while Percival chases him.
Meanwhile the two servants approach the king revealing that the
bread has knives in it. When they are about to stab Leo,
Jamal uses some drapes to jump from
the balcony and accidentally kicks the king out of the way,
preventing the two assassins from
stabbing him. The guards immediately arrest the servants,
and then Leo scolds Percival for failing
to protect him while considering Jamal a hero.
In fact, Leo appoints Jamal as a lord in charge
Even rewarding him with 60 hectares of land and all the women he wants.
The next day Jamal already appears at the court meeting
with new ideas like frappuccinos and
fast food places with nice outfits for the employees.
Afterward he plays chess with
Percival, who says sometimes the queen must
be sacrificed for the good of the kingdom,
which is very suspicious.
Later Jamal is called for a matter of security,
a man has been caught stealing a turnip
from the castle garden for his starving family.
Leo asks him to execute the man
and Jamal laughs until he realizes he's serious. To keep up his
Jamal yells at the thief and takes him away to be killed,
but when they're out of sight,
he gives the guy a bunch of coins and lets him go.
In the evening, the king sends a naked Victoria
to Jamal's room as part of his reward for
saving him.
Jamal admits he asked for her, but only so they could talk in private.
He starts making noises to pretend they're doing
the dirty while telling Victoria that
he plans to leave the castle before
the real messenger shows up. Victoria wants him to aid
the rebels now that he has more access to the king,
but Jamal says that he's not the right
man for that. A frustrated Victoria leaves the room,
not wanting to speak to him ever again.
Then the guards outside congratulate Jamal
for being such an amazing lover. Later that night,
a woman enters Jamal's room and gets in bed with him,
so Jamal gladly gets frisky with her,
thinking she's Victoria. The next morning,
the real messenger from Normandy arrives and reveals
the truth. Leo and Percival furiously storm into Jamal's room,
only to discover he's in
bed with Regina. The messenger
also sees this and informs Leo that the duke won't be interested in
marrying Regina now that she's no longer chaste.
Jamal is immediately put in a cage to wait for
Let's wait for his execution in the dungeon.
Where he finds the two servant assassins from the banquet.
They tell Jamal that they used to be angry
with him for ruining their assassination attempt,
but now they think Jamal is a genius
for ruining Leo's deal with Normandy,
which makes the king weaker.
They also share the legend of the Black Knight, a great warrior who
refused to sell his loyalty to kings
because he was only devoted to justice. Once a dragon
swallowed him, but he cut his way out of the beast's belly
and gained the ability to breathe
fire. Sometime later, Jamal is brought out to be executed,
so he claims to be a great sorcerer in
a desperate attempt to save his life.
He tries to scare the crow with fire from a lighter,
But nobody is impressed because they already know fire.
As they put Jamal's head on the chopping block,
the executioner suddenly starts choking on
an apple, making the villagers think
that Jamal cast a death spell on him.
Playing along, Jamal performs the Heimlich maneuver
on the executioner until he spits
out the fruit, saying he saved him with magic.
Everyone is terrified, so Jamal next claims
that he can make the sun fall from the sky.
At that moment, a flaming arrow hits the king's tent
and everyone panics, but Percival calls
him out on his lie and sends the guards after him.
A mysterious person outside keeps shooting
flaming arrows and causes utter chaos,
which gives Victoria the opportunity to sneak around
and take Jamal plus the two assassins away
on a cart. Unfortunately Jamal falls off the cart
when the horse starts running and Percival orders
a guard to shut the gate, but Jamal knocks
the guard down and escapes just in time.
The castle guards shoot arrows at him,
but suddenly the mysterious archer arrives,
it's Nolt, who takes Jamal away on his horse.
The duo makes it to the rebels camp and Nolt informs
Jamal he helped him to pay him back for saving his life,
so now he can leave without debt.
Victoria sees him and asks him to stay
because he used to be the best knight in England,
but Nolt still feels guilty for failing the previous king
and leaves. Then Jamal offers
Victoria to come with him to modern
times where women are treated better,
but she refuses to leave her people.
Jamal goes back to the lake alone and hesitates to jump.
Meanwhile Nolt goes back to his own camp,
only to be ambushed by Percival's men.
They start harassing Nolt
and throw his flask on a pile of dung, but when Nolt is about
to pick it up, Jamal arrives to stop him.
Then he starts fighting the men using modern boxing techniques
and some silly moves, managing
to knock down two of them.
However the men quickly recover
and overpower Jamal together to beat him up.
Seeing a friend in need, Nolt finally comes through
and immediately defeats the men,
even pushing one of their faces into the dung.
After Jamal teaches Nolt to high five,
they return to the rebel camp,
only to discover that Percival's men have already destroyed it
and taken Victoria with them.
Jamal asks the rebels to help him rescue her, but only Nolt
volunteers because everyone else has lost hope in the cause.
Suddenly a woman speaks up,
it's the queen, who is glad to see Nolt is alive
and doesn't blame him for what happened.
Jamal convinces the queen to give an inspiring speech
to the rebels, however she only has
depressed words to share, so Jamal takes over.
He steals a bunch of lines from many famous modern
speeches and convinces the rebels it's time to fight
and get their kingdom back. Then a training
montage ensues and Jamal teaches them how
to fight using techniques from sports like American
football and pro wrestling while Nolt teaches them how to use a sword.
When the rebels are ready, they make a plan to storm the castle,
and Jamal gifts Nolt his rubber shoes for easier movement. In return,
Nolt gives Jamal a knight's armor,
which Jamal spends the night customizing.
The next day, the rebels attack the castle,
but they're shocked to find the gates open
and no guard in sight. It turns out this is a trap,
and soon Percival has his soldiers
surround the rebels to start a fight.
Chaos takes over the fortress as both
sides cross swords and shoot their bows,
causing countless deaths for both teams.
Suddenly Percival's knights run away in fear
when they see the black knight arrive,
shooting fire from his helmet to intimidate the enemy.
However the knight soon falls
from his horse and reveals to be Jamal wearing the custom armor.
Percival immediately tries to kill him,
but Nolt cuts in to save him, and a duel between the knights
ensues. While Percival and Nolt continue their sword fight,
Jamal helps the rebels fight the
soldiers using the techniques they learned during training.
Their teamwork is flawless and soon
they're turning the battle in their favor.
Percival notices his men are losing and retreats to the top
of the castle walls, where he finds Leo begging for help.
However Percival is tired of him and
throws him to the ditch. Meanwhile Nolt
and Jamal continue to knock down soldiers, and Nolt even
He even uses the silly techniques he learned from Jamal.
Suddenly Percival shoots an arrow
that hits Nolt in the chest, making him fall.
Feeling defeated, Nolt gives Jamal his sword.
A furious Jamal rushes to the top of the castle walls,
only to discover Percival is now holding
Victoria hostage.
Jamal slowly lowers his sword,
but Victoria refuses to let him lose and frees herself
from Percival's hold, getting a cut on her neck in the process.
Then Percival fights Jamal and easily disarms him,
but Jamal tackles him down, almost falling
in the way.
Luckily he manages to recover
and retrieve his sword to start beating Percival up using
techniques taken from baseball and golf.
Percival falls unconscious and Jamal runs to untie Victoria,
but then Percival reveals to be acting
and tries to attack Jamal from behind.
Suddenly an arrow hits Percival to kill him,
and Jamal looks down to discover it was Nolt,
who is alive and fine. The rebels win the battle
and celebrate in the name of the queen.
Sometime later, Jamal convinces Victoria
to come with him to LA and they share a kiss.
The queen asks Jamal to stay, but he turns down the offer,
so instead the queen rewards him by
dubbing him as the Black Knight.
In the middle of the ceremony, Jamal starts feeling dizzy,
and he suddenly wakes up back in his time.
He's surrounded by the paramedics who rescued him from
the lake and his coworker,
who informs him he was underwater for 10 minutes.
Now Jamal thinks it was all a dream.
His co-worker also wants to use the accident
to sue the company for some money, but Jamal
sees no honor in it. Instead he offers
his boss some ideas to beat the competition.
Six weeks later, the medieval world park
is thriving with customers thanks to Jamal's ideas,
and his boss is very grateful.
While Jamal is helping the kids in the batting cage,
a boy's aunt thanks him for it.
Her name is Nicole, and she looks just like Victoria.
Both Jamal and Nicole think
the other looks very familiar and feel a connection,
so they agree to have lunch together sometime.
As Nicole and her nephew leave the park,
Jamal realizes that he never got her number,
so he runs after her only to end up falling
in the ditch again. When he gets up,
Jamal finds himself inside an ancient Roman Colosseum
with thousands of cheering spectators,
so he has to start running away from the vicious lions.
