Featuring uninvolving characters and loose narrative, Jumper is an erratic action pic with little coherence and lackluster special effects.

An elegantly idiotic sci-fi thriller that initially feels as though it might have derived from Philip K Dick -- but lacks the master's lysergic idiosyncracy. Oct 18, 2008 | Full Review…

The disappointments and the inexplicable plot turns kept mounting until I finally surrendered and just admitted it: This was just a goodlooking clunker. Feb 19, 2008

One day, I feel sure, the rich mantle of charisma will descend upon [Hayden Christensen], but Jumper is not that occasion. Feb 19, 2008 | Full Review…

Important plot points are left unexplored, and there's no killer climax, so you leave the cinema deflated rather than thrilled. Feb 19, 2008 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Jumper, based on the novel by Steven Gould, re-defines -- downward -- the notion of dreadful. It does so by dispensing with everything a movie needs for a shot at being merely awful. Feb 15, 2008 | Full Review…

Jumper is a movie with no special powers. Despite its slick and sleek approach to extraordinary events, it remains quite ordinary and remarkably nondescript. Feb 2, 2018 | Full Review…

A movie that has a tremendous premise and awesome special effects that are ultimately hindered by a script that prevents its characters from every fully taking off. Nov 20, 2013 | Rating: 4/10 | Full Review…

Light entertainment is all about playing to an audience's fantasy. There have been quite a few well-crafted and entertaining films that have started the same way and gotten away with it, out of sheer creativity. Jumper is not one of those films. Mar 29, 2011 | Rating: 5/10 | Full Review…

Ignore the previews. Unless there was a drastic change of storyline in the editing room at the last minute, the final cut is a lot more interesting than originally advertised. Feb 10, 2009 | Rating: 3.0/4.0 | Full Review…
