Steve is a quirky, adventurous man who has a passion for mining.You know, the kind of mines where you find treasure — the kind of mines where you walk out richer and dirtier.Not surprisingly, the local mine didn’t let the overly eager Steve get past the front gate when he was a youngster. It didn’t allow him in when he was an adult, either, but Steve used his quick moves to juke out the head miner and sneak inside.And on that day, Steve’s life changed forever when he uncovered two mysterious small glowing boxes — boxes that, when combined, opened a portal to another world, the “Overworld.”This video game-like world includes towering mountains, pixelated forests, blocky villages, and creatures unlike anything Steve had ever seen — some friendly, some …not so much.Fast forward several years, and two local townspeople — a curious schoolboy and a struggling business owner — stumble upon Steve’s mysterious treasure, not realizing its power. They’re catapulted into the Overworld, quickly followed by the boy’s sister and her realtor.Will they ever make it back to the real world?It’s all part of A Minecraft Movie (PG), a new family film based on the viral video game that follows this quintet as they team up to battle evil and search for a portal back to Earth.Here are three things parents should know about the film.Photo Credit: ©Warner Brothers
