a5c7b9f00b David Rice lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He was left by his mother when he was five years old. The teenaged David does not have a good relationship with his father; and he has a crush on his schoolmate Millie Harris. When David gives a snow globe with the Eiffel Tower to Millie, the bully Mark Kobold throws it onto a frozen river. David tries to retrieve the object, but the ice shatters and David fall under the ice. Suddenly he teleports himself to a library and discovers that he has the ability to jump anywhere he wants. He decides to run away from home, moving to New York, and uses his power to rob a bank vault. Eight years later, David is living in a fancy apartment in New York and having a life full of adventure, traveling to the most exotic places in the world. He decides to visit Millie in Ann Arbor and invites her to visit Rome. While in the Coliseum, David meets the jumper Griffin that explains to him that the dangerous Roland Cox and his team of paladins are chasing him and his family and friends are in danger.
Twenty-something David Rice has known for eight years, since he was a teenager in high school in Ann Arbor, that he could teleport himself to anywhere in the world at anytime, this skill which he stumbled upon by happenstance at a most opportune time. He honed his abilities so that he could get away from his high school bullies and his alcoholic single father - his mother who abandoned them when David was five - by stealing money to live a lavish, adventurous, new life in New York City, with everyone from his old life believing him dead. He decides to return to Ann Arbor to reconnect with his high school friend/crush, Millie Harris, and give her the travel adventures she always wanted. He does sohe values his life even more now after discovering that someone is after him and seemingly trying to kill him, that person who knows that he is a "jumper". David learns that he is not alone, that there are fellow jumpers in the world, who are in a war with this man, Roland, and his well organized, high tech and motivated group of religious fanatics, the Paladins, who believe jumpers are an aberration to be destroyed. David may be further illuminated about his situation by someone from his distant past. He also quickly figures out that by bringing Millie back into his life, he has placed her in mortal danger. Although he doesn't want to tell her the entire truth, David also has to decide if telling her the truth would be a safer option for her than not.
First of all it was too short, it seemedif they were rushing to finish the movie rather than trying to make it good. The story line could have been a lot better, but the graphics were really good. Sort of like what a lot of movies are these days, good graphics, bad overall story. When I first saw the previews, I was stoked. I thought OK, we've got another type of comic book character, instead of being the hero, he's the type of guy who does whatever he wants. Very similar powers to the Night Crawler in X-Men. The acting was pretty bad, I don't understand how Hayden Christenson can still do movies after the horrible job he did in Star Wars episode II and III. Overall there were some really good ideas, it just didn't tie in well. Like I said it felt like the movie was being rushed.
David is picked on at school but one day but one day he discovers he has a special ability… he falls through the ice on a frozen river but justhe thinks he is going to drown he finds that he is no longer under the water but in the town library. He soon learns how to control this ability but rather than using the power to get back at the bullies or help people in need he robs a bank then enjoys the life normal people can only dream of; going to a pub in London, surfing in Fiji, even having a picnic atop the Sphinx! Eight years later he returns home and has a run in with an old bully; he dumps this character in a bank vault before heading to Rome with Millie, his high school crush (on a plane). The thing that he doesn't know is that there is a group calling themselves the Paladins who are hunting people like him; Jumpers. He learns this when he bumps into fellow Jumper Griffith in the Colosseum along with a couple of Paladins. They manage to get away and he puts Millie on the first plane home. He thinks that should solve the problem but Griffith explains that the leader of the Paladins will do anything to catch Jumpers; including killing their family and friends. They will have to be quick if they are to stop him before he can kill Millie.<br/><br/>I hadn't really expected much of this but ended up quite enjoying it despite how preposterous it was. No attempt was made to explain how Jumpers came to have their ability; it is just stated that they had been around for ever and the Paladins had always hunted them… this was a good thingit meant little time was wasted on exposition. Hayden Christensen was okayDave butsoonGriffith, played by Jamie Bell turned up it was clear that the protagonist wasn't the most interesting character which is a weakness in any film. Samuel L. Jackson wasn't on top formRoland, head of the Paladins… with his bleached white hair I was immediately reminded of Wesley Snipes character in 'Demolition Man'; a better villain in a better film. The effects were decent and there was plenty of action; none of it was too violent though so it isn't unsuitable for younger viewers… my ten year old nephew certainly enjoyed it! Overall I'd say this is worth watching on television but not really worth seeking out.
It’s Liman’s least charismatic action movie and the least developed, but it still packs some cracking action into its brief running time and lays foundations on which a great franchise could be built.
This film was loosely adapted from the novel Jumper by <a href="/name/nm2092479/">Steven Gould</a>. Gould's book is the first of a series. In early 2005, <a href="/name/nm0333060/">David S. Goyer</a> was hired to adapt the first novel in Steven Gould's series. His adaptation hewed close to the book, but the studio didn't like it. The studio hired <a href="/name/nm0880243/">Jim Uhls</a> to improve the characterizations and <a href="/name/nm1334526/">Simon Kinberg</a> to improve the action scenes. No. The "jumpers" in this movie can teleport themselves, just like Nightcrawler. But there are differences. Nightcrawler can teleport himself, and any objects and persons he is contact with; but his range is only two miles, at most, under normal conditions because it is line-of-sight based (He can only teleport to places he can see at the time. Otherwise,he told Storm in <a href="/title/tt0290334/">X2</a>, he "might end up inside a wall."). Nightcrawler uses a "shortcut" through an alternate dimension called Limbo, which is similar to Hell and accounts for the smoke and the smell of brimstone that accompany his teleportations. Nightcrawler also possesses advanced agility and reflexes, a fully prehensile tail, and, similar to Spider-Man, the ability to stick to ceilings, walls and other surfaces.<br/><br/>The jumpers, on the other hand, can teleport themselves, or any objects and persons they are in contact with, to anywhere they've been or can visualize, through a short-lived wormhole. Their range is apparently unlimited. At least, it is unlimitedlongthey stay on Earth. Whether jumpers can teleport to, say, the Apollo 11 landing site in the Sea of Tranquility on the Moon or Olympus Mons on Mars is unknown, though director Doug Liman has spoken of how sequels may show that Jumpers can reach other planets and travel in time.<br/><br/>Nightcrawler is a mutant who lives in a world of mutants. The only known mutants (or metahumans for that matter) in Jumper are the jumpers. A much closer phenomenon, physics-wise, to the jumps we see in this film would actually be the FTL jumps on <a href="/title/tt5508780/">Ron Moore</a>'s and <a href="/name/nm0251594/">David Eick</a>'s re-imagined <a href="/title/tt0407362/">Battlestar Galactica</a>, although those are obviously on a much grander scale. To better understand the Jumper universe, the novels Jumper (1993), Reflex (2004) and Impulse (2013), all written by <a href="/name/nm2092479/">Steve Gould</a>. Yes. <a href="/title/tt1143900/">Jumper: Griffin's Story</a> is available for the Xbox 360, Playstation 2, and Wii gaming consoles. The game was released February 12, 2008, two days before the film's release. "Stompbox" by The Qemists. He is,it would stand to reason, speaking metaphorically, in that there are Paladins located all over the world in all kinds of social circles, he being a high-ranking relentless one of them. To use <a href="/title/tt1520211/">The Walking Dead</a>an analogy, Roland mightwell be to the Paladins,Negan is to the Saviors.
