JUMPER - So where do you wanna go?


I just saw Jumper and what can i say, i would like to have a taste of that power. Wow! it would actually be a cool superpower. Jump from one place to another, through a wall, anywhere anytime. I just hoped that they would actually include how he got the power in the first place. but they didnt,(every hero with a super power has a backstory on how he became so super) maybe in the sequel? hehe or maybe they can make a tv show out of it like 'monk' that would be super!

Anyway, the plot is not all that heavy. What drives the movie are the fight scenes cause it involves a lot of teleportation tricks. Its a bit of a puppy love story also. dont get me wrong, i actually would suggest you watch the movie, especially to all the sci fi fantasy nuts out there (like me) I would go crazy if the movie was actually based on some sort of graphic novel cuz im the biggest comic book fan. Do any of you guys actually know? anyway, this is another Hayden Christensen movie. Honest! when i made a blog about virgin territory i didnt know hayden was in it. Just by dumb luck! Good thing mischa was in it. anyway, the lead lady is Rachel Bilson, another hottie!! i love this girl. i hope she comes back to the tv show 'chuck' anyway, i have to warn you i make a lot of side comments. im probably one of those kids that cant keep a single chain of thought.

So the plot, Hayden(david rice) hates his life. His relationship with his dad isnt much and he gets picked on in school in front of his biggest crush. he finds out he has a superpower, the kind that can teleport him anywhere as long as he has seen it. So basically, he ditches his life for a cooler one, he robs bank by teleporting himself inside and taking all the money then goes around the world on whatever pleasure he desires. So happy ending. Well that is till a super secret, really high up government agency finally catches up to him and he finds out that he is not the only 'jumper' around and that this agency has been assassinating jumpers one by one all over the world. This is where Samuel Jackson comes in. He plays bad ass roland(he has silver whitish hair for this movie). Crossing paths against Roland, David decides to go back to his old hometown to see his long time crush Millie(Rachel Bilson) . Well thats all ill give you. Where would the suspense be right?

  • Hayden Christensen as David Rice (adult): a young man who discovers the ability to "jump", or teleport.
  • Jamie Bell as Griffin: Fellow Jumper [1]
  • Rachel Bilson as Millie Harris (adult): David's childhood friend and crush, who later becomes his girlfriend.[1]
  • Samuel L. Jackson as Roland Cox: the leader of the Paladin organization, whose goal is to kill jumpers who are deemed too powerful to exist.[1]
  • Diane Lane as Mary Rice: David's mother who abandoned her son when he was five years old.[1]
  • Michael Rooker as William Rice: David's father
  • AnnaSophia Robb as a Millie Harris (kid)
  • Max Thieriot as a David Rice (kid)
So watch it! Tell me what you think.

Virgin Territory


An amusing and charming movie set in some sort of romantic era. maybe if i do some research ill find out what year it is set to but i am lazy and i will just leave it at that. Its setting is Europe and at a tragic time when it was beset with a plague. Amazingly it was portrayed lightly in the movie and doesn't affect what is supposed to be a romantic comedy (I think historically in europe a plague claimed a lot of lives - probably 'the black plague')

So on with the plot. When you start with the movie, you immediately get that feel that this is another romeo and juliet story.Everyone wears tights and wields a sword. Hayden Christensen plays Lorenzo (Romeo) and Mischa Barton (Juliet) plays Pampinea. Well their families are not at war but basically they are in love and obstacles ahead of them cannot be helped. Dont worry, they dont drink cyanide at the end of the movie (its a romantic comedy) Tim Roth plays villain and sour loser. He wants to kill Lorenzo for beating him at gambling and plans to marry Pampinea who is supposed to wed a russian monarch named jajinsky(thats not how it is really spelled) So love triangle, sword fights ladeeda you get the drift.

Oh yeah, apparently a big issue in the movie is virginity. This is actually what makes the movie really fun. Watch out for the awesome nudities cuz there are a lot of them.. I WONT TELL YOU IF MISCHA WILL GET NAKED HAHAHAHA so you will have to see it for yourself.


CAST:

  • Hayden Christensen - Lorenzo de Lamberti
  • Mischa Barton - Pampinea
  • Rosalind Halstead - Filmonena
  • Kate Groombridge - Elissa
  • Christopher Egan - Dioneo
  • Nigel Planer - Uncle Bruno
  • Matthew Rhys - Count Dzerzhinsky

ATONEMENT - another great movie by Keira Knightley

If you enjoyed 'Pride and Prejudice' you are also going to enjoy this one. Its a great movie. 'Atonement' is a must see. So get a piece of paper and write these down: I will watch 'Atonement' as soon as i can. And if i have a chance, i'll also watch 'Pride and Prejudice'. They evoke the same feeling if you watch both movies, i guess i will have to commend keira for being able to choose the right scripts. So far she has been doing good. 'Domino' 'Pirates of The Carribean' 'Arthur' are just a few.

And the imagery is astonishing. Colors in the frame were well mixed. And it brings you to the exact era it depicts. The plot is well planned. You never expect the ending. im no spoiler but it will really make you say, 'whoa, didnt see that one coming'. and i cant say the story is similar to another movie's like most of the movies that come out lately. Its unique. You can also read the book cuz thats where it originated from. Well thats if you like to waste time. Here are some videos:
