Jumper

This movie was good, but could have been Awesome if they hadn't cut so much out of it! I can understand not being able to fit an entire book into a 90 minute movie, but there was so much from the... Full review

What an awesome movie! A great sci-fi that generates energy from the very beginning to its end. Being around the world for just as little as 90 minutes, Jumper makes us ask for more. Wonderful story and great visuals in a... Full review

This movie was Entertaining. Don't go into this trying to see the realizm in everything... B/C there is none. Don't expect great acting by Hayden Christensen or Samuel L. Jackson, they do just enought to get the job done and that... Full review

I thought that the movie looked okay in the previews, but I was still disappointed after the movie was over. The characters were undeveloped and flimsy, no explanations were held for anything, and the story was very dry and bland. The... Full review

To sum it up quickly: Too much setup. This entire film should have been the first half-hour of a bigger story. They try to make this just a first chapter, like an "origin" story in a superhero film, but if... Full review

What would happen if you could teleport ANYWHERE in the world in the blink of an eye? Thats the question explored in Jumper, a film thats as fast and action packed as it is hollow and underdeveloped. The films theme of... Full review

I don't normally ever write reviews for movies, (usually I am content with allowing others to draw their own personal opinions) but after witnessing this train wreck of a movie I felt strongly compelled to warn someone…anyone out there about... Full review

Some people have unrealistic expectations. This movie is aimed mostly at teens and sci-fi fans or anyone wanting a good popcorn movie to kill two hours of their life. If that's not your thing then don't complain if you didn't... Full review

As a professional pretentious person, it would be easy to harsh on "Jumper," which is out today. Happily, "Jumper" runs a breakneck 88 minutes � 30 minutes shorter than both of Mr. Liman's previous films, and the director never runs out of inventive new teleporting tricks to show off. ...

As it stands now I didn't care much for Jumper and wouldn't recommend a sequel, as much as they left it open for one. That scene was actually pretty good, however after being attacked Christensen decides that instead of hiding or trying to figure out why he had been assaulted, he instead tries to find his old high school crush and go on a romantic vacation. ...

The film is fun and exciting, and sets itself up for sequels. Though the movie is decent, the bonus features grind down good feelings towards the film bit by bit. After watching everything, I (sadly) categorize Jumper as a miss. ... Full Review

So is Jumper ; but it also feels, depressingly, like a movie by one. Jumper shares those movies' emphasis on youth culture, exotic locations, and constant, restless kinesis. ... Full Review

Short on imagination and anchored by a wan hero, Jumper is a flight of fancy that never fully takes off. It doesn't help that the performances are bland (particularly those of Christensen and Bilson) and that what comes out of their mouths is uninspired. ... Full Review

Russell Crowe tells the story of a journalist who is enlisted by the CIA to help track down a suspected terrorist. That's only the sketchiest of plot synopses, but since I haven't read the book, I'd like to enjoy And ... Full Article

Although the possibilities seem endless and Hayden's character certainly enjoys the gift, there is a complete organization that is intent on capturing and disposing of all who possess this gift. Enter Samuel Jackson who provides somewhat of a much needed ... Full Article
