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 so as he 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.
David Rice is a high school student in Ann Arbor, abandoned by his mother at five, living with his callous, alcoholic father, enamored with Millie, a fellow student, and picked on by at least one classmate. On a winter's day, while about to drown, he discovers he can transport himself instantaneously to anyplace on earth. He runs away from home, goes to New York City, robs a bank vault, and comes to the attention of a shadowy group of government hunters. Eight years later, the hunters, led by the murderous Roland, get a fix on David. He heads home, searches out Millie, invites her to travel with him, and only later realizes that Roland and his crew are seriously deadly. Is everyone close to David in danger?
Jumpers is a great idea, lazily executed. Director Doug Liman has the Bourne identity and Mr &Mrs Smith under his belt as big budget action movies, so in theory, with a good premise to work from, all should have been well. But it isn't.

David Rice (Hayden Christensen) is a shy, young man, who at the moment of mortal jeopardy discovers an ability to teleport himself. Quickly, he establishes that this is an excellent way to make vast sums of money, and for a while the film has fun as he enjoys himself. But the potential of this strand of the plot is barely exploited when his nemesis is introduced, bad guys whose mission is o destroy the jumpers led by career bad-ass guy, Samuel L Jackson.

From this point onwards the film degenerates into a fatally flawed fight film. Rice is not a particularly engaging or charismatic soul. We don't really care if harm comes to him. Jackson is just bad, but for no coherent reason, if he wins we will not cheer, but if he loses, we are not that bothered.

A romantic sub-plot is weak and underdeveloped despite it being the context for the stand out scene, a showdown in Rome's Collisseum. Although the running time is only 84 minutes, the film feels long, mainly due to the unwillingness of Liman to pick up and run with a strand of the plot rather than introduce another fight.

Some have labelled this a teen film, which if I was a teenager I would feel pretty insulted by, so careless is the treatment of this story. Ironically, in twenty years this will cry out for a remake because there is the guts of a very good film here, but for now, avoid. A special breed of people exist in this world - thanks to a genetic defect they can transport themselves at will within a blink of an eye to any place on Earth which they have already seen. David Rice (Hayden Christiansen) first discovers his gift at the age of 15, when he by chance initiates it when trying to escape certain icy death beneath a frozen river. This occurrence springs a sequence of events, where he leaves home, robs a bank without opening any locks and then starts living the good life with the stolen money. Unknown to him he is not the only 'jumper' out there and humankind is not wholly unaware of their existence...

Actually there is a war going on between the Jumpers and the Paladins, a sect of human beings who deem this ability a travesty and hence aim to eliminate all Jumpers.

A mildly hip and entertaining movie, which is suitable for a night out or in with some popcorn. Basically burning time, but there is nothing in this Highlander wannabee movie thats really intrigues, hence my surprise at finding out that a sequel is planned. A semi-successful super-hero story with no real heart and an extremely predictable dramatic structure. The magic and bleakness necessary for the movie to really work was substituted for rad cars, special effects, interesting locations and some nice camera-work. All in all a very rushed script and any promise that the movie had was killed off by the scripwriters focusing too much attention on making the movie feel like something taken out of a Michael Bay diary.

Special effects are really cool (i.e. the very impressive London bus scene), but it is unable to cover the skin-deep script, which really could have been much more inventive, but seemed to only scratch any surface of the possibility set out by the basic plot. Jumper proves disappointingly inert. All the state-of-the-art visual effects in the world can't compensate for spotty plotting and bland characters that prevent an intriguing premise from going the distance.
This film was loosely adapted from the novel Jumper by Steven Gould. Gould's book is the first of a series. In early 2005, David S. Goyer 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 Jim Uhls to improve the characterizations and Simon Kinberg 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, as he told Storm in X2, 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.

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 unlimited as long as they 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.

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 Ron Moore's and David Eick's re-imagined Battlestar Galactica, 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 Steve Gould. Yes. Jumper: Griffin's Story 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, as 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 The Walking Dead as an analogy, Roland might as well be to the Paladins, as Negan is to the Saviors.
