Watching Jumper makes me wanna jump.

Ramesh and Moggie can tell ya when watching Jumper I talked more than the main actor. That's probably true since the whole movies was juvenile and full of plot holes.

First, there is was no establish for the Paladines to kill any Jumpers although the dialogue indicated that Jumpers will 'go bad' after a time. There was not even a historical reference of one Jumper commiting murderous abuses with his power. Not even one reference.

But what really bugs me about Jumper is the use of their abilities. Bad guys show up, OK first time appearence. Don't know how to fight them. Next encounter should be with a gun. Pop in. Pop the mofo. Pop out. Jesus. WTF can be the problem with doing that? No, he is a good guy. Let's see, almost killed his dad, about to kill gf. And the only thing he did is teleport Sammy to the grand canyon. So he can come back later and finish off his dad and gf.

The Paladine Hunter is the most likeable person in the movie... at least he uses a lot of creative ways in an attempt to kill Sammy.

Verdict: Piss Poor Movie. Give me back my 2 hours.
