Synopsis

US soldier John Carter is on patrol in Afghanistan when he is ambushed by a group of insurgents and left for dead. Rushed to secret military base he is told his only hope for survival is an experimental teleportation device. With no other choice, Carter agrees to the plan…

Carter awakens alone… and uninjured… on the surface of Mars. He attempts to stand up and springs a full six feet into the air. With his new found superhuman powers, Carter finds himself embroiled in a war between the militaristic race, The Tharks who accept him as one of their own, and the other indigenous races of Mars.

Can he stay neutral in the war between the Tharks and the beautiful princess of Mars, with whom he has fallen in love? And when a greater threat to both alien races appears, can Carter must convince the enemies to work together to defeat the common foe?
