What did you think of JUMPER?!
Question: I have mixed feelings on this one. On one hand, I felt sort of cheated at the end because I was expecting a bigger fight and it could have been a lot better considering the subject matter.
On the other hand, the special effects were awesome, the action scenes were cool, and the "jumping" was just plain cool. Roland was so delightfully badass. Was it worth my months of waiting? Not really.
And of course, I'm still deciding whether to feel sorry for Hayden his endless bashing from the critics, or throw him out as a hopeless actor even though he seems to be trying. I like that guy.

I am with you on this one. I was expecting more from these producers and directors after seeing his last movie with Matt Damon in the Bourne series. Sometimes the genre needs someone who is familiar with it, also to work with a better plot and action sequences that had more bite to them. I like twists and surprises in movies too and this movie held on to special effects and basic fight scenes with only one brutal scene. It definitely missed a bigger battle fight scene to make up for the confrontation. I guess to explain why there even was an issue between the two groups of adversaries. I leave my review to 2 stars.
Wasn't too impressed. I was entertained but it wasnt great.
