I just came from watching Jumper with Tobie & Urim, & while the movie is still very fresh in my head, I figured I better write a review. :P

Jumper is a sci-fi action movie based on the Steven Gould novel of the same name, where genetic mutations grant certain people with Hiro Nakamura & Kurt Wagner's power - teleportation. It seems that the studios were relying on that premise to draw in an audience. While reaching the top of the US box office (over $30m) proved that it did, Jumper is nothing more than a big-screen travel brochure (excellent location shots), with flashy CGI tricks & man candy. (Sorry, Steven Gould.)

The ironic thing about this movie entitled Jumper was that it never actually went anywhere. Questions are left unanswered & the *coughsupposedcough* climax of the movie really lacked the power to grasp its audience.

The best part of the movie, for me, was Jamie Bell. :D While Hayden Christensen is the lead for this film, it was really Jamie Bell that stole the show. (Even I was looking forward to seeing Hayden, but ended up falling for Jamie. Hehehe! ^__^ He took ballet... Lalala... :D) Jamie Bell makes this otherwise bland movie just a bit more worth watching. ;)

On the other end of the spectrum, Hayden doesn't show the acting skills to carry the movie... Maybe next time, folks. (Don't worry Hayden, you're still hot when fighting with a lightsaber to me. :D) Other performances are either swallowed by the names of the leads or severely underused.

My advice for those with plans to watch this movie? Enter the theater with the lowest expectations, & you might not feel totally disappointed. ;) That's what I did, so I came prepared. Hehe. :P

However, I was not prepared to see Samuel L. Jackson's snowy white hair...
