I just had the chance to see the movie, and I liked it. For anyone who may have wondered what happened to Hayden
"Anakin Skywalker" Christianson, he's the lead role for this movie, unless my eye sight's going really bad, which it could! LOL!
I really like the concept of teleporters, although I think their abilities aren't so much Nightcrawler of the X-men are they are of Blink of the Exiles.
Also, something people often aruge as to the dangers of teleportation is that you could accidently teleport inside a wall. If I understand the concept in the movie, when he slams into a tree early on, is that you're sort of like moving (running) at a very high speed, so instead of being inside of something, you just hit into it.
Others, please give your thoughts about this cool movie.

I watched the movie all alone by myself. And I thought if I have the same ability I won't be paying the movie ticket anymore lol. Anyway, I like the concept though the scenes are not that very much thrilling. But then the main actor Hayden is so handsome here. It is unfortunate that there is no topless scene to show off his hunky body.

i havent seen it yet, but it looks awesome!
and yes that is Hayden Christianson from Star Wars fame.
though a comment he made during an interview about Star Wars kind of pissed me off.
he said that "you dont become an actor to do such comic book roles" i THINK he said "hokey comic book roles" but i cant remember for sure..but of all the ungrateful things to say! Star Wars PUT HIM ON THE MAP! and then he goes and does Jumpers..which is a sci-fi genre movie along the lines of like you said xmen or the exiles, and certainly wont ever hold a candle to the powerhouse of Star Wars..and he just seems so stuck up about it..ugh still annoys me lol!

Yup I saw it the other night with my boyfriend. It was good but they did need a bit more storyline. Also the handheld camera was making me a bit sick though.I'm guessing that they choose to make the camera in motion all the time, because of the whole thing with the jumping. They couldn't use any lighting equipment in the collseum, so all the lighting was strictly natural. I thought it was pretty cool in all.

I think if the would have made the movie a minimum of an hour and a half, as opposed to an hour 10, maybe closer to 2 hourse, they could have really fleshed out the story. Given it's limited time, they did good; maybe they can develop more storyline and stuff, if they do a sequel...

loved it.. but the acting is terrible
the last scene where the two teleporters fight was really awesome
but they could have done better, it looked stupid
