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?
