    Jumper

    Now on DVD.... Starring Hayden Christensen/Samuel L. Jackson. Anyone see it? I thought it was entertaining. Not the greatest movie ever. I am getting sick of Samuel L. Jackson being cast in roles he has no business being cast in, though. I'm liking Christensen more and more in what I see him in.....there's a particular unique intensity about him.

      I liked it too and am looking forward to the sequels they are planning.

      It's discussed (bashed) in this incorrectly titled thread: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...7-jumpers.html

      Atlanta Braves       - Auburn Tigers - Nashville Predators

              Hey, what do you want? The original thread was misnamed. I searched. It looked like there was nothing around. Sue me.

                  The movie premise itself was alright, but I find Hayden's acting to be extremely wooden. In Star Wars, he could get away with it somewhat because of Anakin's personality, but it doesn't work very well in other stuff. JMO.

                      Re: Jumper

                      I rented this on Blu-Ray last week.

                      Christensen and Bilson have less range than Jason Giambi. The film originally had different actors for those roles. Despite casting terrible actors and watching Sam Jackson mail it in, I still enjoyed Jumper. The concept was really interesting and I enjoyed all the different locations.

                                  First movie that I've ever walked out on. Hayden Christensen is a horrible actor.

                                  If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                                      Definitely not an Oscar nominated film, but did what it was intended...keeping me entertained for a hour and a half.

                                      have it next on my netflix list.
