Editorial Review:Widescreen/ Blu-Ray PG 13. Jumper
As preposterous action movies go, Jumper is pleasantly unpretentious and breezily entertaining. A young man named David (Hayden Christensen) discovers he has the power to teleport (or "jump") anywhere he can visualize. After using this power to steal and make a comfortable life for himself, he pursues the girl he longed for in school (Rachel Bilson, The O. C.). But as he does so, another jumper (Jamie Bell, Billy Elliot) and a pack of fanatical jumper-hunters called paladins (led by a white-haired Samuel L. Jackson) crashes into David's freewheeling life. Jumper wastes no time trying to explain how jumping works or delving into the hows and whys of the paladins; this is an alluring fantasy of power directed at a pell-mell pace by Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Go). There's a brief moment when it feels like the movie will bog down in romance and vague gestures towards character development--happily, that's the moment when Bell appears and the whole movie shifts into overdrive. You might wish that Bell and Christensen had swapped roles; Bell has a far more engaging personality, and Christensen's bland good looks might better suit a more aggressive character. Nonetheless, Jumper has oodles of dynamism and nifty visual effects to propel its comic-book storyline forward. A variety of recognizable actors in bit parts (such as Diane Lane and Kristen Stewart, Panic Room) suggest that the filmmakers are laying the groundwork for sequels. Based on a critically-acclaimed science-fiction novel by Steven Gould. --Bret Fetzer

Great story, good acting, good overall plot and filming. I liked this being a different take on time travel than redoing mistakes of our past and instead focused on what the lifestyle could be like with those time travel attributes. It's also a great family movie since it's clear of violence, obsentities, and nudity. Lawrence Fishburne is the bad guy who portrays his role very well. However, I had trouble believing there is a team of people who just want to remove these time travelers because "only ... Read More

I remember seeing the trailers for this film when it was released and thinking "man what a good idea for a film". Of course it is based on a book I believe so I need to pick that up but any way I was never able to see this but finally did. After seeing this finally I have mixed feelings about it but over all enjoyed it. I have heard a lot of things about this movie and actually agree with most of them. What people love about this film is what I love and what they dislike I also agree ... Read More

The movie concept is entertaining, Hayden is a good actor but Rachel Bilson is a very bad actress in this one...but good movie over all.

Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed Hayden Christensen's performance in "Life as a House." And I felt he gave a good, strong effort in Star Wars trilogy. But I just feel he's not the appropriate actor for the lead role of David Rice, the jumper whom the movie revolves around. The guy discovers his jumping ability as a teenager, and runs away from home, leading to an easy life of crime. After setting up this background, the movie picks up on David eight years later.
If you pause and think about ... Read More
