    It has Hayden Christensen in a starring role, how good can it be?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I enjoyed it. Not incredible. Does have some cool cars in it, and I also didn't think there was anything horrible about it.

    Definitely worth watching for entertainment purposes, but it's not phenomenal.

    Having said that, I'd definitely watch it again.

    It was decent. I watched it in theaters with the gf and ended up watching it again just the other day.

    Typical teenage love mixed with some tragic moment like how mom leaves home early on and he has problems with his dad all mixed into the plot, but still worth watching.

    I'll be picking this up on Blu tomorrow it looks like a fun popcorn ride of a movie.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Now THAT, was a cool movie. Much more enjoyable then that Indy movie I just saw, that's for sure. The DTS-MA track was outstanding and the PQ was excellent.

    Hayden acted exactly how I expected him to so it was no big deal, plus he had a good cast around him, even his girlfriend was decent, and hot. yummy!

    Watched it last night. It was a fun movie. Silly fun, but lots of it. Constantly moving, nice and short (< 90 mins), decent effects. Not to mention, I could watch Rachel Bilson all day.

    Hayden, on the other hand, just needs to go away. I don't understand how someone can make millions doing a job they're that bad at. And he is hall of fame bad.

    Don't worry...I don't review movies. I have better things to do...like NOT watch Jumper. And BTW, that wasn't a review, it was an opinion.

    I enjoyed it in a "turn off your brain for 90 minutes" kinda way... but watching Hayden Christiansen is like watching paint dry. It would have been a far better movie if they had cast Jamie Bell as the main character instead of his supporting role.

    Well, I guess if we're correcting grammar, we should start with the thread title.

    I thought it was kind of entertaining. It was worth the time spent, but I probably won't go out of my way to see it again.
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    Watched "Jumper" tonight and ......zzzzzzzz..........zzzzzzzz.........zzzzzzzzz...
    ........zzzzzzzzz.............zzzzzzz .......... huh ? .... What ? ...... I'm sorry, I fell asleep. Is "Smallville" still on ?


    "Jumper" wasn't bad, it's just like watching an episode of "Smallville"
    (which I like).

    As a TV episode, "Jumper" was good. As a movie, "Jumper" was ... what's the function ?
