After all is said and done, with Jumpers/Paladin mix-ups occurring at quicker and more break-neck speeds the finale of the film is rather quiet, subdued, drooling for a sequel. It hits warp speed after Rice encounters Griffin and the war ensues. Once David Rice meets Roland things get interesting and the pace is sped up.

The movie starts off rather slow, you get some background information and cover the basics of the idea. The book goes with terrorist, the movie however goes with religious zealots with geneocide on the mind, which turns into what Griffin, portrayed by Jamie Bell calls, \"the war\".
And if you are a fan of the book, don\'t even think its going to be scene for scene with the book, there are a few similarities but after that, the two take different paths. The book that the movie was based on also addresses these themes but in a wholly separate manner. Sure it might not seem like the movie is a thinking movie and for the most part its not, but that theme is there, as is parental abuse. From London to Cairo, to Ann Arbor and New York and Tokyo the films glossy shine hides its more gritty underlying theme. Over all the movie is a good, don\'t think too much, ride around the world with some wonderful special effects.

The idea of the movie is a young man, David Rice, portrayed by a more mature and less whiney, Hayden Christensen, learns at a young age that he can teleport, or jump from one location to another, and thus the story begins of him accidently learning to control his gift through trial and error. It may not have been the summer blockbuster that 20th Century Fox thought it could be, but it did marginally well for what they got. But don\'t let the whole premise of the movie persuade you to pass it by. Jumper a movie made of two parts scifi, one part love story, and one part action film.
