Jumper review









Millie and David have been friends since high school. While david had a crush on her that was very noticeable, Millie had a crush on him as well but it was rather inconspicuous. Millie thought that David had died while about to drown, but little did she know that he was still alive. He returned to her after the Paladins attacked. Which I thought was rather stupid of him because he was putting her in harms way, I belive if he really wanted to see her he should of done it a long time ago. He had so many chances to attempt it but decided not to.

PLOT/GENRE


Jumper is an action adventure movie with a little romance

The movie starts off with David, the main character, attending high school in Ann Arbor Michigan. He was abonded by his mother when he was only five years old, forced to live with his father, someone he never got along with. David had fell through ice in a frozen pond outside of his school. Just while drowning he realized he can teleport himself to where ever he desires. Shortly after he discoverd his gift he leaves town, and goes to New York City. He robs a bank and becomes very wealthy. Eight years later he runs into a group of hunters called Paladins that were out to get him, these hunters only went after jumpers like David. The hunters, got a lead by the murderous Roland, he was like the leader of the group of the Paladins to get a fix on David. He heads home, and looks to find Millie. He invites her to go to Italy somewhere she'd always dreamed of going, and only later realizes that Roland and his crew are seriously dangerous. He has to figure out a way to defeat him and protect Millie at the same time. In this journey he meets Griffin. Griffin is a jumper as well and they work together to get Roland. I personally do not like the plot of the story, just because its too predictable. I usually like a twist in the story, but in this case this movie is your typical fairy tale, although it has a lot of action and great graphics. If the graphics and the action were not the way they were i think i wouldn't watch it. But if your into intense movies that make you bite your finger nails you definitely need to watch this movie.
