The One that Jumps
Reviewed by www.BraidedThreads.blogspot.com for Jumper at 2008-08-28 12:23:05

In order to be really special, you need to have super powers. Everyone else in the world is a chump. Just ask Hayden C - or any of the characters he's ever played. But according to this movie, if you become too special, people will want to kill you. This action film is diverting enough. The overly produced jumping effects create a bit more confusion than they need to. I spent most of the action sequences trying to figure out what just happened - I gave up on trying to figure out what was happening while it was happening. There is some fun in there. I see potential for a Jumper television series. Not a series I would want to watch, but the mythology of this story leaves room for more exploration. It is only a matter of time... and space... or both... or something.
