Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The science fiction thriller leaps into a new realm with jumper which begins the epic adventures of a man who discovers that he possesses the exhilarating ability to instantly teleport anywhere in the world he can imagine. Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 06/10/2008 Starring: Hayden Christensen Run time: 88 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Doug Liman

Amazon.com:
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

Rating: - Might'z Well Jump!
I received Jumper from Netflix when it first came out on DVD in the summer of 2008...but I never watched it; after it sat for a week or so I just returned it because I was never compelled to spend the 90 minutes watching a movie that got average at best reviews.

Well I finally had the chance to watch it on HBO last night...and it was good! With a talented director like Doug Liman and the awesome David S. Goyer involved, I knew that Jumper would be good...I just knew it.

Rating: - JUMPER ENDS UP A ...DUMPER! 2 1/4 STARS!
OK, OK, I know this is just another preposterous action sci-fi film, but for such an interesting premise to end up going nowhere, I have to say watch this on cable or maybe a cheap rental. The film is fast paced, but for a film that clocks in at under an hour and a half, it felt very long. This might have played better as a TV episode of some random sci-fi series.

The film does say a lot about our society though as with such an amazing and powerful gift, all these lunkheads could think ... Read More

Rating: - At Least Fun
This is a fun big budget special effects action movie. As far as a compelling story...well it has promised, but it is incomplete in many ways. There is a lot of story to tell. A kid whose mother long abandoned him and a father who drinks too much discovers he has this amazing ability to jump to places around the world. You have the girlfriend he wants along with a bully and it makes for an interesting story beginning. But the movie rockets past all that to get to the action. The action is good, ... Read More

Rating: - Watch it
I've become addicted to reading fan reviews before I see any movie. This movie had such bad reviews from fans (averaging to about 3 stars)that I didn't see it until lastnight. PLEASE WATCH THIS. I don't understand why so many people had problems with the movie because I thought it succeeded on every level; the directing was awesome, acting/actors very good, locations were amazing and the script was very well written for an action movie (usually action movies succeed in the visual arena with explosions, ...
