This movie is so outrageous. That summary doesn't do it any justice, wasn't there a princess in the mix?

Also I love the idea of some 1885 mf'er winning the old timey Gymkata games.

Edit: Geezes my math was bad, 1085 which makes it even funnier as gymnastics weren't even a thing.

Oh no, the game doesn't have anything to do with gymnastics per se. It's just that the Main character is played by an gymnast and they apparently wanted to make an action movie around that gimmick.
