Jumper was so bad I cried. Push was a lot like Wanted...ie a good idea that came off as kind of rushed.
i thought jumper was enjoyable. not the best movie in the world, but a good dvd to rent.
push i thought was terrible. hated everything about it. the star wars geek in me cant like a movie that blatantly is based around the force and the force push.
Yup ... I'm with ya Bud ... I actually loved Jumper, and I really didn't think I would ... but Push left me unimpressed ... to me it was just a cop of every "popular" sci-fi idea possible, thrown into a pot and stirred, and dumped out onto cels.
I liked jumper DESPITE Hayden Christensen, he was as unwatchable as always. The movie i felt was well done though, great premise (also a great book btw)
If you liked it, i recommend the book to all. it's really good. I wonder if they will do the sequal books as movies as well?
EDIT: to prevent false advertising, i must say thatthe book has NOTHING to do with the movie, other than the jumping power. None of the characters/ organizations are the same.
non-spoiler example: no paladins, and david's mother isn't some international super agent who randomly married, then left, an alcoholic who apparently was never connected with the super secret world wide anti super power organization his wife worked for.
(seriously, what the hell was that about movie? His mom is part of a secret society along the lines of the Illuminati and lives in Detroit with an normal guy who has no knowledge of her day job? and why later is she shown to be super rich and in a position of power? come on now jumper movie, all i'm asking is a WAVE at logic
