Really good and different. Worth seeing at the theaters because of all the beautiful scenery. Very original idea and well played. Edge of your seat, unpredictable action movie. Oh, and Christen looks rrreally good!!!

Well I think the story could have really been better if it had a script that made sense. It was all over the place like the main characters! Plot holes like swiss cheese!! They could have elaborated on his mom, before she left and maybe showing a peek-a-boo game or something where her son is three and first jumps and then she realises what he can do. Heh did the husband drink because his wife took off- why didn't he know who she was-What about the Scottish guy when he was little-they could have given more info on how these guys grew up -with their gifts. Also having a black guy as a religious fanatic is mocking to any Black Christians- who by the way when they are following the real message of God -do not exterminate people who are different-Religion breeds war- turn on the T"V. !! Short real history class:The crusades were NOT funded or created by REAL Christians. It was a pope who wanted to take the land in middle east to build another roman empire by force-so they went and killed everyone (all the muslims )who were in their path. This has nothing to do with God, but they misuse His name to destroy, just like the Paladins in this movie... Hope the book for story on jumpers was better...

It was no Matrix but it had it's moments. The story left lots to be desired and explained but maybe a sequel will clear some things up. Calling the bad guys Paladins does Have Gun Will Travel a disservice. Hayden Christensen is as wooden as ever but the special effects make up for his lack of acting ability.

It's a terrible movie. An absolute waste of money. Boring as hell.

A good movie, hope they make a sequel because of the final events (which I won't tell)

Plot holes a regular person could jump through. Some parts didn't really make a lot of sense.

It just went nowhere... but if you're going to see it, see it in the theater cause on a small screen it would be even worse.

It's pretty sexy but any large budget movie (large enough for S. L. Jackson)can pay good looking people. So is it entertaining? Yeah it's entertaining but don't let this encourage you to go see it. Jumper's simple plot and a shameless, without motivation, character (Samuel L Jackson)are unacceptable. With millions of dollars to burn one would hope to see some talent in any dimension of the film but unfortunately everything sub par. It is sometimes unintentionally funny and puzzling since the use of his power was inconsistent for example he could jump anywhere in the world but for theatrical effect he'd jump 3 feet away. Just weak and a teen fest.

Needed more background to set up the plot. Why didn't he jump between age 5 and 16?

It was good but it sucked because at the most interesting fight scene the movie stop but we could still hear it... which made me not get some of the ending.

I'm 14 and I saw this movie w/ my boyfriend. We met up in windsor (he lives in windsor) and he suggested we see it. I thought it was pretty cool how after he fell in the lake , he ended up in a library and it showed him ten years (or w/) later, it didnt really explain. Towards the middle of the movie it explained the beginning so it made you want to stay and watch to see how it all unraveled. Great mooviee.

I thought that this movie was actually pretty good. My friend's boyfriend wanted to go see it (a group of us always go) so everyone was like "Kay, whatever." So I was expecting it not to be very good but I was surprised to how much I enjoyed watching it. The plot was interesting and creative. Definitely nothing I've seen before. Acting was great, characters played their part very well. I really liked it. The only thing I think could have been better was the ending. Now I'm wondering if there's gonna be a sequel. ;p

Please please do not see this movie. Not only is the story line brutal, there are so many things that make no sence i.e. a kid dissappears for about 10 years after he fell in a frozen lake and when he returns nobody is excited he is back, no emotion and the bully who through the glass ball onto the lake did not even flinch when the so called star of the show returns. If you have no common sense and have a mind of a 6 year old then go see the movie as you will enjoy it, other then that JUMP away far and fast. Cheers.

A pretty good movie with good actors but a little short and the movie just ended, not really knowing what happened.

I went to go see this movie and I thought it was pretty good... I found it really awful that the mother was a paradis and she was against her own son but I thought that the idea was pretty cool being able to jump wherever you wanted... Hayden Christensen, Rachel Bilson, and Samuel Jackson were all good actors in this movie...

I'm twelve. I think this movie was awesome and have gotta see it if you didn't because it is full of action adventure and a whole lot more. When I saw it I would've rather saw another movie but this one if far better than I thought. It just always keeps you boring into it. I needed to go to the washroom in the beginning and I held it to the very end because I couldn't miss ONE part; it was just so good.

Pretty good. A little exaggerated but, what movie isn't these days... it was expected. Family worthy, no. Not for young children anyway. Not the best acting either. Still was entertaining though.

I didn't expect much when I went to go see this, but I walked out wishing I could somehow rewind and get the last two hours of my life back. The concept of the movie was very cool, and could have been expanded into a good, engrossing story with some cool CGI thrown in. Instead, Hayden Christiansen acts like whenever he has to show any emotion, he looks like someone is trying to force something into his anal cavity, and whenever he talks he has this dazed off-centered "just pay and let me go home" tone to his voice. Ruined the movie. The screen play had huge jumps in it... (ignore the pun): it seemed it was written as a series of scenes and badly hashed together. No character development, bad ending. Go if you're drunk and want a good laugh.

It was terrible. The plot sounded really good and the cast sounded decent enough but what a let down. Not even worth a rental.

What a boring first 30 minutes. Some cheesy high school sweetheart story that had me rolling my eyes. Then what a surprise to be out of the theatre in less than 90 minutes. Thus, 1/3 of the movie equals pure tedium and laughable. THEN somehow I am to dig deep and relate to this major bank robber, thief and petty break-in artist when he tells the authorities that he might be different and good? HELLO!! You rob banks for a living? Leaving an IOU doesn’t make it right. Again, the IOU’s are more cheese than anything.
