As preposterous action movies go, Jumper is pleasantly unpretentious and breezily entertaining. A young man named David (Hayden Christensen) discovers he has the power to teleport (or "jump") anywhere he can visualize. After using this power to steal and make a comfortable life for himself, he pursues the girl he longed for in school (Rachel Bilson, The O. C.). But as he does so, another jumper (Jamie Bell, Billy Elliot) and a pack of fanatical jumper-hunters called paladins (led by a white-haired Samuel L. Jackson) crashes into David's freewheeling life. Jumper wastes no time trying to explain how jumping works or delving into the hows and whys of the paladins; this is an alluring fantasy of power directed at a pell-mell pace by Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Go). There's a brief moment when it feels like the movie will bog down in romance and vague gestures towards character development--happily, that's the moment when Bell appears and the whole movie shifts into overdrive. You might wish that Bell and Christensen had swapped roles; Bell has a far more engaging personality, and Christensen's bland good looks might better suit a more aggressive character. Nonetheless, Jumper has oodles of dynamism and nifty visual effects to propel its comic-book storyline forward. A variety of recognizable actors in bit parts (such as Diane Lane and Kristen Stewart, Panic Room) suggest that the filmmakers are laying the groundwork for sequels. Based on a critically-acclaimed science-fiction novel by Steven Gould. --Bret Fetzer

Stolen Theme
There are a couple of other reviewers who've made it sound as if this movie, and the book, are creating a new idea here. This is far from the TRUTH!!!

The greatest teleportation story ever written was authored by Alfred Bester (still only a book - nowwwww, that would be a movie!!!), and it was called, "The Stars my Destination".

The first teleportation story ever written was a short story called "Dangerous Dimension" by L. Ron Hubbard authored in the 40's. Both "Dangerous" and "Stars" earn the hallowed mantle of "CLASSIC", and I will be terribly disappointed if the both of them don't make it to the Silver Screen sometime in the near future. "Stars" could actually be made into a trilogy. It is that good, and I recommend everyone read both books.

They are . . . awesomely . . . classic.

Thrill ride
Great thrill ride of a movie. People with no imagination should probably avoid it. But if you like science fiction and well made action sequences then this film delivers.

I liked this one
People seem to want Hayden to fail bc/they're not happy with the recent Star Wars movies, but that's not very fair to this movie. The movie, while not Oscar material, is an entertaining flick. The acting is not bad, despite the complaints of other reviewers.

Again!!! Another good movie underrated
I found this movie so entertaining, I was not disappointed. The concept is good, even though it was treated very juvenile. One thing I liked is that violence was very low, allowing the movie to be seen by a general public. I've seen some comments about the acting, but I found very interesting the way Hayden Christensen performed his roll. There was some kind of a mysterious look on his face with little expression, revealing that there is some kind of uncomforting secret he is hiding and a power like that; you just can't tell anyone. He looks like he wishes to be honest with everyone but then he knows it is dangerous, so he needs to hide it from the people he cares about; it's not easy. His roll was managed in a very mysterious way, which in my opinion gave a very special touch to the movie. There's a lot of action, fights, car race, jumping, etc... even romance, what else do you want from a science fiction movie? 6 stars in total.

So under-rated! This was a magnificent movie!
I got excited the moment I saw the jumper trailer! The story looked cool yet I was prepared for a letdown at the theaters because of the stupid "super-hero" feel I got from the trailer. I was amazed how good it was, and it totally did not feel like some rip-off super-hero flick. The acting was perfect along with the effects. The romance was sweet and short, with an amazing twist at the end. It did feel like there was something small missing at the end and made me realize they probably will make a second movie (which I hope never comes). Jumper is perfect the way it is. I could be wrong a second could be great. I just don't want something to ruin this one.

I truly cant believe what the ratings on here are... This is one of my top ten favorite movies of all time! Most of my friends agree and loved it. Comedy, Sci-fi, Romance, and action all not going too far.

This will be on my dvd shelf forever! Check it out.

A fantasy epic with more than a passing resemblance to the Lord of the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia film franchises, The Golden Compass takes place in an alternate universe where each human's soul is embodied in a companion animal called a daemon. Lyra (Dakota Blue Richards), an orphan who's lived most of her life among the scholars at Oxford, is intrigued when her uncle, Lord Asriel (Daniel Craig), announces his plans to travel north to investigate the source of some mysterious particles called Dust. Lyra has little hope of following her uncle until a mysterious woman named Mrs. Coulter (Nicole Kidman, at her most icily beautiful) asks Lyra to travel north as her personal assistant. All is not as it seems, however, and the disappearance of Lyra's friend Roger (Ben Walker) sets her on a dizzying adventure. She does have an alethiometer, or golden compass, that can help her see the truth, and a number of companions, including her shape-shifting daemon, Pantalaimion (voiced by Freddie Highmore of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), polar-bear warrior Iorek Byrnison (voiced by Ian McKellen), Texas aeronaut Lee Scoresby (Sam Elliott), and witch queen Serafina Pekkala (Craig's Casino Royale co-star, Eva Green). Even before its release, The Golden Compass was the subject of controversy over its perceived anti-religious themes. While it does involve an oppressive institution called the Magisterium, it's not overtly religious, particularly to a young viewer. The movie's PG-13 rating should be taken seriously, however. Suitable for an older audience than Narnia (though younger than The Lord of the Rings), it deals with complex concepts, violence (though largely bloodless) and implied death, children and animals in peril, and an unrelentingly ominous and unsettling mood.

Despite a few changes and rearrangements, the overall plot of the movie is remarkably faithful to its source material, the first installment of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. It doesn't finish the book, however, and--much like The Fellowship of the Ring did--leaves the viewer hanging in anticipation of the next film, The Subtle Knife, due in 2009. So even though The Golden Compass is impressive--especially with its spot-on cast and terrific visual effects--we probably won't know its full emotional impact until the story is complete. --David Horiuchi

Customer Reviews

A Big Nothing...
I am a devout, strict Roman Catholic, so this movie, and the others to follow in the series...along with the books that accompany it, are garbage to me.
The author has said that the theme is about killing God, so I would not support him even in the slightest way.

Yawn
As a fan of fantasy/action movie I had high hopes for this movie but actually fell asleep watching it. The story was the Achilles Heel of this movie. It was all over the place and just didn't hold together. An allstar cast could not pull this out. I am guessing this is yet another case where the movie does not do the book justice.

The two things that really stood out were some of the atmospheric special effects and the acting of Dakota, who was excellent as the young heroine.

But nothing can save a wandering story with lots of holes that leave way too many questions.

The Golden Compass (Full-Screen) Book 1
All I can say is "WOW"!!!
Anyone who loves good storytelling and max animation should see this movie and guess what?
This is only part one so imagine the other 2 :)

If you've been wondering what ever happened to ex-Green Beret superwarrior John Rambo since he singlehandedly shot up a Pacific Northwest town (First Blood, 1982), returned to the jungles of 'Nam to free U.S. POWs held long after war's end (Rambo: First Blood Part II, 1985), and interrupted the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan long enough to blow lots of stuff up and rescue his old commandant from the Reds (Rambo III, 1988), then Rambo (2008) is for you. Without so much as a IV to dilute the brand name, Rambo--which is what most of us called the second, most iconic film in the series--may aspire to open a new era for a pop legend. But it's a thoroughly mechanical attempt to reanimate a franchise that, absent the anger, frustration, and self-loathing of the post-Vietnam years, has no meaning or purpose. For some time now Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) has been putt-putting along the Thai-Burmese border in a longboat, catching exotic snakes to sell. As for the 60-year civil war in Burma between the brutal government and the Karen independence movement, he ignores it. Enter a party of American missionaries whose dewy blond spokeswoman (Dexter's Julie Benz) asks Rambo to haul them upriver so that they can bring medical aid to the insurgents. After the requisite number of monosyllabic refusals, he does. Soon afterward the do-gooders are in a world of hurt, and he's summoned to lead a squad of mercenaries on a rescue mission.

As storytelling, the latest Rambo is the most bare-bones of the bunch. Rambo has little to say, so it's especially galling that Stallone, as director and co-writer, obliges him to have essentially the same conversation at three different points (the final distillation: "Live for nothing or die for something"). The Burmese army goons seem in competition to commit the most hideous atrocity (e.g., child skull-crushing underfoot), the better to justify the eventual, lovingly protracted spectacle of them being eviscerated by high-powered weaponry. Although shot in Thailand, the movie has mostly been photographed in brown, reducing any particular sense of place but, perhaps, perversely increasing our gratitude for the splashes of purple whenever hot metal tatters flesh. --Richard T.

Action! Explosions! Rambo!
My roommate's girlfriend made him watch Legally Blonde: The Musical, perhaps the most emasculating movie of all time, now turned into a musical. In exchange for this, she had to come with us to see Rambo in theaters; the absolute antipode to anything blonde, legal or otherwise. Being in the targeted 18-24 male demographic, I was ecstatic the entire time.

The critics basically hit this movie on two fronts. I'll try to offer a defense of each aspect. First, it's outrageously violent. Parents, don't buy this for your kid; that R rating is there for a very good reason. The violence does escalate past necessarily realistic levels, however Stallone [as the director] frames the violent actions of his character against the antagonist Burmese militants. Rambo's mercenary warfare is much more tolerable when the contrasted with the images of genocide. The second critical hit that this movie will take is the fact that the plot is shallow. In one sentence, Christian missionaries are captured in a warzone, Rambo must go save them. That's it. This definitely isn't No Country for Old Men. In the film's defense, there's some subtle elements that I didn't notice the first time, however, I'll have to agree that the plot is mostly just a vehicle for Stallone's character to blow things up.

Some quick cons: this version of the DVD doesn't contain any special features except for the trailer. To get any of the cool goodies, you need to get the special edition. It's also too bad that Stallone has so few lines in this movie. Yes, his dialog tends to sound absolutely butchered, but half the time he's shouting over gunfire anyway.

This is the epitome of guy movies and deserves to be viewed by anyone who enjoys action flicks.

Rambo goes home!!! Will he stay there???
No B.S. in this movie and it is loaded with great action. Rambo is living in a hell hole and he is still a lost, dark figure. Critics bashed this movie, but I felt it was very effective. Although the film is obviously fiction it opens your eyes to events and dilemas going on in this world. Sly based all of the torture, violence and horrific images on what really happens in that country. Thanks to all the real Rambo's out there. Live for something, die for nothing! Your choice!

The Best Rambo Movie
Rambo 4 is an incredibly violent yet entertaining action adventure. It's the best of them all actually. It's short but sweet but certainly not cuddly sweet. Rocky Balboa was a bit better but still this turnt out better than I expected since I'm not a big Rambo fan.

I just felt like everyone but Rambo's life was in danger in the movie. He was too much of an animal here, I mean he's like Michael Myers type strong. While it's so violent and even some-what disturbing that you'd think Rob Zombie was directing it. Performance wise though Stallone still does Rocky way better than he does Rambo. Rocky at least has a personality. Stallone handles the action great but when he's not violently destroying his enemies he's frowning like he has a stomach ache.

Unmistakably a shot at greatness, Paul Thomas Anderson's There Will Be Blood succeeds in wild, explosive ways. The film digs into nothing less than the sources of peculiarly American kinds of ambition, corruption, and industry--and makes exhilarating cinema from it all. Although inspired by Upton Sinclair's 1927 novel Oil!, Anderson has crafted his own take on the material, focusing on a black-eyed, self-made oilman named Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis), whose voracious appetite for oil turns him into a California tycoon in the early years of the 20th century. The early reels are a mesmerizing look at the getting of oil from the ground, an intensely physical process that later broadens into Plainview's equally indomitable urge to control land and power. Curious, diverting episodes accumulate during Plainview's rise: a mighty derrick fire (a bravura opportunity that Anderson, with the aid of cinematographer Robert Elswit, does not fail to meet), a visit from a long-lost brother (Kevin J. O'Connor), the ongoing involvement of Plainview's poker-faced adoptive son (Dillon Freasier). As the film progresses, it gravitates toward Plainview's rivalry with the local representative of God, a preacher named Eli Sunday (brimstone-spitting Paul Dano); religion and capitalism are thus presented not so much as opposing forces but as two sides of the same coin. And the worm in the apple here is less man's greed than his vanity. Anderson's offbeat take on all this--exemplified by the astonishing musical score by Jonny Greenwood--occasionally threatens to break the film apart, but even when it founders, it excites. As for Daniel Day-Lewis, his performance is Olivier-like in its grand scope and its attention to details of behavior; Plainview speaks in the rum-rich voice of John Huston, and squints with the wariness of Walter Huston. It's a fearsome performance, and the engine behind the film's relentless power. --Robert Horton

Blood on the tycoon's hands
Although it's pretty much a given that there is violence in this film, "There Will Be Blood" actually starts off pretty innocently. Yet, the entire film eventually skyrockets into extremely emotional performances, with a crazy ending that is brilliant as well.

"There Will Be Blood" is set in the early 1900s, with Daniel Plainview, a prospector who hits paydirt with his first oil platform. Soon enough, he builds an oil derrick, and eventually builds a strong company. After one of his workers dies, he adopts the man's son.

Daniel becomes a big oil tycoon, and begins to build up an empire with the help of a man named Paul Sunday. Paul informs him of the oil below the surface of Signal Hill, California. Daniel builds a stable oil company, after paying Paul's brother, Eli, for his church.

Then things go wrong. Daniel's son, H.W., is left deaf after an oil derrick explosion. Daniel also meets a strange man who says that he is Daniel's brother. And, of course, Eli keeps asking for more money. And where is H.W's mother?

There are many strange conspiracies left unsaid in the artsy film "There Will Be Blood." Daniel Day-Lewis pulls off a great performance as the ultimate evil tycoon, who is flawed in every way possible. He is hollow. He is empty. And he won't settle down at any time.

Similarly, Paul Dano pulls off a stunning performance as the fanatical evangelical preacher, Eli. Speaking of which, this isn't a movie for heavily religious people. There is lots of rotten talking, and strange confessions.

The ending, however, is an awesome array of excellent back talking between Dano and Day-Lewis. And while I never imagined that these characters would make such creative use of bowling balls and bowling pins, I enjoyed watching how overly fanatical the two tycoons were.

This is a crazy film where nothing ever ends happy. This is a film about greed, greed and greed. Most of all, this is a film that really shows what happens when men are left unaccompanied with their greed, with no sign of sensitivity at all. It's fantastic and devilish, but it is also an extremely brilliant character study on masculine corporate power, which I've seen far too much of in the last few years.

Most of all, this is Daniel Day-Lewis in what could be his best performance ever.

Lives up to the hype
Almost invariably, movies that garner a lot of hype get very polarized reviews; the same applies to this movie, as evidenced by it's rough inverse bell curve of ratings (a greater proportion of extremely bad or good ratings than middling ones than most movies usually receive). Oftentimes, the much-hyped movies often deserve a lower rating than the hype merits. However, this is not the case with "There Will Be Blood".

This film really does live up to the hype, and in some ways exceeds it. I was astonished that there were so many 1- and 2- (and even 3) star ratings. Many of the lower ratings complained that the plot was choppy, and that the main character was essentially bad the whole way through, and didn't change his nasty ways. Others complained that the story was too moralistic (railing against the evil capitalist), or that it was incomprehensible. It is none of those things, however.

Not all characters, even protagonists, are supposed to come to a change-of-heart, or even a shocking self-realization that they are bad and that their ways have hurt others. In real life (as is so beautifully portrayed in this film), people don't always find the error of their ways. However, Daniel Plainview does have inner struggles (contrary to the opinion of some reviewers) in trying to reconcile his actions and their effects on his own life, the life of his son, and his relationship with his son, even if they aren't a large focus of the film or are not loudly and colorfully proclaimed. Ultimately, Daniel Plainview chooses (if that is the proper word), at the end of his struggle, to entirely shut himself off from others and from having any close or meaningful personal relationships; but this doesn't mean that the struggle wasn't there.

Furthermore, this film is not too choppy or abstract. It follows through an all the main themes and problems of the film and the characters and comes to a satisfactory conclusion for each (whether good or bad for the characters in question, or whether a traditional or non-traditional conclusion, is irrelevant). This is *not* an art film or some random abstraction piece made by an artsy, purposively (or even unconsciously) abstruse screenwriter or director. To say so implies that you have never seen a truly abstruse or incomprehensible film, such as the barely comprehensible (but interesting, yet in my opinion lesser) film "Pi". "There Will Be Blood" is one of the finest works of cinema an American has put out in years, and while it is not the Second Coming of Christ for cinema, it certainly ranks as a pretty darn holy event.

Deeply flawed, overhyped rubbish
Somehow, writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson can never get it right, and when he's combined with producer Scott Rudin ("The Addams Family Values"), the result is profoundly worse. Anderson's fetishist tendencies tend to prevent him from any real human understanding (call it "Quentin Tarantino Disease"). In this movie about an ambitious oil wildcatter, the audience is never given a reason to care about the main character, Daniel Plainview (histrionically played by Daniel Day-hyphenation), or to understand the roots of his unbridled ambition. He is evil, and so what? That he is contrasted with an equally unlikable evangelical preacher is totally without dramatic effect. If the oilman character is intended to be emblematic of mindless, ruthless capitalism, then "There Will Be Blood" is yet another boring morality play. Why not turn the same lens to Hollywood, where soulless accountants (Scott Rudin) produce "art" by investing in bankable comic book characters and movies by Anderson, whose deeply flawed works inevitably look cartoonish?

Hard and fast workout DVD
Jillian Michaels - 30 Day Shred
this is one great DVD---some base ability is needed even to start the beginner level though!!!! yes, Jillian will make you work although the first and last 4 minutes are warmup/cooldown; so only 22 minutes, but all work!!!
Made it a 4 star because you can't skip through the intro or change from 1 level to next workout level easily.

Holy Cow!
I had been using Jillian's Biggest Winner set for 2 months, so I felt this would be a good addition to it. I have already lost 45 pounds, so I was looking for something to help tone up. Oh my gosh!! I was able to get through the other workouts no problem. When I did this one I was sore for 3 days (the good kind of sore). I'm currenly on Level 1, Day 5 and I can already tell the difference in my ability to keep up with the workout, and in the way I look. Trust me, just push though it; and just as she promises, you will get results! I would reccomend not doing this for 30 days straight though. Give yourself about 6 weeks to complete the "30 days" because you will be very sore the first week.

Laura's Review of Shred
I'm in pretty good shape - I run Marathons. However, these 20 minute workouts KICKED MY BUTT!!! They are awesome! The only thing I would improve about this video is to have more workouts on it. I would have paid more to have more of a variety to choose from. Three workouts is good, but will get boring quickly. It would have been cool to have 3 different workouts at each of the 3 levels. Other than that, this DVD is GREAT.
