Jack Slater és l'heroi que lluita infatigablement i victoriosament contra el crim. És un personatge invencible que es mou còmodament perquè només existeix en les pel·lícules. És el personatge favorit de Danny, un nen d'onze anys que, gràcies a una entrada màgica, aconsegueix un dia saltar del seient del cine a l'interior de la pantalla, introduir-se en el món de Slater i donar via lliure a les seves fantasies: aixafar cotxes, volar entre els edificis i perseguir els malvats. Però els personatges dolents de la pel·lícula s'apoderen de l'entrada màgica i fan el salt invers: s'introdueixen en el món real i comencen a fer de les seves. Això obliga Slater i Danny a seguir-los per poder-hi lluitar.
