| Article: | Movie review: ‘Jumper’ disjointed, vacant Based on a novel by Steven Gould, “Jumper” is a predominantly nonsensical sci-fi thriller that might have started out with a coherent plotline, but instead in the hands of screenwriters David S. Goyer, Jim Uhls and Simon Kinberg, suffers miserably from a disjointed and vacant script. Director Doug Liman pulls off a few slick special effects by employing the use of CGI, but never quite gets his cast or the fragmented story to work. |
