Jumper

I know it got some mixed reviews, but I loved Jumper this morning.  Maybe it’s just the way my life’s been going lately, and that an escapist fantasy with some good Samuel L. Jackson kickass violence was the comfort viewing I happened to need right now, but I thought it was a good movie.  Nice story, great visuals, cool effects.  No Oscars™ on the horizon except maybe for some special effects, but good high-energy fun with just a splash of eye candy and an ending left wide-open for a sequel.

    The day Christian Hayden wins and Oscar will be the day that Syria and Iran bring lemon poppyseed muffins to Israel in a neighborly way.

    I agree, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie I thought it was loads of fun. I’m lucky I didn’t read any reviews about it before renting it.
