Editorial Review:
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, Amazon.com

- Well I thought it was great!
Seems to be a lot of negative reviews for this film which I find rather annoying. Hey this film is fast, fun and full of great ideas that are well realised. I think the fact the story and ideas are so good is why people are so critical i.e. They think it could have been so much better. I thought it Rocked and the SE's are really good.
I'm sure the negative reviews will continue for this movie just as the positive reviews continue for "Serenity" which truly is complete rubbish (I own ... Read More
Rating:
- Enjoyable but not as good as it could have been
I felt the story was a bit weak as the watchers are simply supposed to accept people kill jumpers and sometimes they fight back.
Christensen consistently comes across as a moody teenager, to be honest he acts exactly the same in Jumper as he did in Star Wars.
Although the acting wasn't very good and the story line had no depth (nor any depth to the characters either) I still quite enjoyed the film, enough to buy it when it became reduced in price.
I feel if they ... Read More

- Where's me jumper?
I was really excited as I put this into my DVD player because winter is really drawing in now and I was looking forward to getting a nice warm polo neck with a pretty pattern to go with my new scarf and mittens. What I got instead though was a thin slice of banality.
Jumper has an excellent tag line: Unpopular youth, played by Hayden Christensen, discovers he can instantaneously teleport to anywhere he wants (the 'jumping' of the title') and decides to use this esoteric skill to rob banks. ... Read More
Rating:
- Charmless, Witless Hokum
The basic premise is interesting and the director's track record promising, which together led me to ignore the negative criticism and waste a rental credit on this turkey. I may not be fully qualified to review this movie as I hated it so much I skipped the last half hour.
You'll be aware that the hero (Annakin Skywalker or whatever he calls himself these days), a lovestruck high school geek, finds himself able to teleport. As any teenage boy might, he uses this gift to get wealthy, get laid and ... Read More
Rating: - Teenage angst. Fights. Credits...
***WARNING - MAY CONTAIN INFORMATION WHICH COULD SPOIL SURPRISES IN THE FILM***
Hmmm...nice idea but sadly let down by a very linear story line. Set in America, a breed of people called "Jumpers" are relentlessly pursued by a breed of humans called "Paladins". I say humans but it's never really explained where any of these figures are from.
Jumpers have the ability to teleport at will around the globe and create a crewneck from whatever is lying about. I made that last bit up but ... Read More
