It's one of those movies I can watch repeatedly but have no strong feelings towards either way.

Like comfort food in film form that you see on TV throw on and half pay attention to while browsing the coli.

Film was just trash I don't even remember what it was about aside from teleportation and it was the weirdest Samuel L Jackson role.

I liked it and can remember it supposedly being a sequel in the works. Guess they passed on it after a while.

It should have been better and Samuel L. Jackson's character was a little cartoonish but overall I liked the world they were set in and I think it's something that would work as a show or still as a movie franchise if fleshed out a little bit more. I've always thought Jumper and I Am Number 4 were solid movies that just kinda got lost in the shuffle of the time.

It's alright, definitely one of those that when it plays on TNT or TBS I check it out.

Isn't this based on a graphic novel or something? Just had no staying power

This movie was the complete opposite of the book it was supposed to be based on but I still enjoyed it
