Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Directed by Doug Liman, this film contains an interesting storyline that is ruined by bad direction, editing and clichés. The film contains many beautiful locations, but because of the bad editing the sight we get of them is barely a glimpse of their beauty, as we repetitively just get quick shots, making far too fast a pace for it's own good as well. The characters feel unrealistic, they mostly seem to be cliché teenagers with no spark of originality, and the antagonist doesn't have a good, logical drive to kill the jumpers. I think the main reason why I wasn't fond of this film is because of it's style, though. The typical, average blockbuster that has no sense to calm down.I didn't like it, but I can see the audience that would like this. An action film, one that makes you smell the scent of popcorn around, and one to have a chuckle at with your friends. The theme song is brilliant, one you may find yourself humming to yourself at work on a rainy day. But I think one thing in this film we can all cringe on is that it plays out like a teen soap opera, which I cringed at heaps.Overall, the film has likable tings that some may get a kick out of, but in a whole, it's disappointing. 5.5/10, not terrible, but not good.

This movie gets to the point quick. And by quick I mean real quick. Not even ten minutes into the movie, the main character not only accepted that he somehow has a mystical talent to jump around earth as if it was a talent for writing Christmas poems, he also used it to rob a bank, collect dozens of currencies and get laid all over the globe. And thereby reveals one of the weaknesses of "Jumper", that it is a very impatient movie.All throughout the film I couldn't help thinking that this would probably make for a fantastic book, but the pressure to press all the action into 90 minutes didn't do it a favor. I liked some of the ideas presented quite much, the two forces fighting each other for ages without usual people noticing for example. Nothing completely new but surely enjoyable. But some other aspects just can't keep up with the pasting, like the everlasting love he left behind for around 8 years, then wins back after one occasion in the bar after which he risks everything for her, after bragging about all the girls he had in the meantime.With a bit more time and a more earnest attitude, this could have been a great title, as it is it is a decent blockbuster but not more.

This film tells the story of a young man who finds out that he has the power of teleporting himself to another place. He abuses the gift, and causes disastrous consequences."Jumper" has a simple and predictable plot. It shows a young man who does not know when to quit his questionable lifestyle, hence bringing undue attention to himself and his closest friends. The special effects are good, and I think it is cool too see the film shot in so many different countries. It features an engaging and entertaining plot, though it would be even more fun to face more jumpers in the film. It is an entertaining film, and I enjoyed spending time watching it.

Jumper is a film with no redeeming qualities to speak of. It's boring, mediocre paced and the story is utterly horrendous. What slightly saves it is the idea, but the execution to explore the idea felt like it was pulled of be a third grader. The film had no direction, cliché riddled and explosively repulsive. Poor acting on top of this makes the film a living hell to watch. A nightmare film pulled off and no, I don't mean a Nightmare On Elm Street, I mean terrible. The film is so below average that it takes a massive amount of energy to pull through the entire film. Sometimes doing nothing is better than doing something and that rule applies to this grotesque movie.
