2-4-1! Jumper:Your lost in the woods. Its quiet, freezing cold. You need a fire. Death is imminent. Wait! you do have the means to make a fire! Whip out your portable DVD player and watch anything with Hayden Christensen and Jessica Alba. These 2 sticks of wood, rubbed togeather will make a fire! Boy scouts should have a merit badge for Hayden carving. In Jumper HC plays a very tasteful oak table. HA HA. No he plays a type of human who can teleport from place to place just by concentrating hard. Theres little back story to explain this abilty. As a whippersnapper HC has an accident and runs off to live on his own. He robs banks to fund his extravagant lifestyle. This brings him to the attention of “The Paladens”. For centuries they have killed Jumpers. Sam L. Jackson is their hitman and goes after HC. Thats right movie buff, just mumbo jumbo to show 1 1/2 hours of effects. HC joins up with another Jumper and its war time with Sam L. But beware theres no conclusion here. This is nothing but a set up for sequels. Movie review part 2: U23D. I was the only person in the theater. There were NO commercials and only 1 preview! Now thats movie going. I like U2 and have seen them twice in concert but this is really just a forum for Pope Saint Mother Teresa Bono to toss out his political world view. At a scant 75 minutes tho, its tolerable. Is it just me or does Bono, while trying to help people, seem like a real humorless drag to be around? Its like he feels that the music isn’t enough to put him with the John Lennons of music history. It reeks of megalomania and desperation. 3D has come a long way since the red and blue lense days. It looked great and the preview was for the first live action movie made for this new 3D technology. Its “Journey to the Center of the Earth” with Brenden Fraser. The theater manager was telling me that people were scalping Hanna Montana tickets while no one was seeing U2. I’ve said it before and i’ll say it again, KIDS HAVE NO TASTE! If its not the Beatles, Stones, Old 97s or The Shins kids should only hear orders from their parents and teachers. Free range children, like cobras can be dangerous. They should be penned up till their civilised enough to join polite society. Maybe when their 30. Next: Semi pro
