Storyline
John Carter, a Civil War veteran who in 1868 was trying to live a normal life, is "asked" by the Army to join. But he refuses so he is locked up. He escapes and is pursued. Eventually they run into some Indians and there's a gunfight. Carter seeks refuge in a cave. While there he encounters someone who is holding some kind of medallion. When Carter touches it, he finds himself in a place where he can leap incredible heights, among other things. He later encounters beings he has never seen before. Later he meets a woman who helps him to discover that he is on Mars. And he learns there's some kind of unrest going on. Written by rcs0411@yahoo.com

Trivia
Taylor Kitsch claimed to have suffered liver problems due to his rigorous diet and physical training for this film, losing 30 pounds in the process. See more »Goofs
Revealing mistakes: The moons of Mars will never look as similar to Earth's Moon as they do in this film. Both are highly aspherical; thus, they do not appear circular from the Martian surface. Deimos, as the smaller and more distant of the two, does not even show a disc from the surface - appearing instead as a starlike point of light whose phases are not visible other than as changes in brightness.

At the end of the movie, a title card comes up that says John Carter of Mars. See more »
