Dir: Doug Liman
Writ: David S. Goyer, Jim Uhls, & Simon Kinberg. Based on book by Steven Gould
- Hayden Christensen … David Rice
- Samuel L. Jackson … Roland
- Diane Lane … Mary Rice
- Jamie Bell … Griffin

David Rice used to be your average chump. His word, not mine. But then he discovered that he could jump; transport himself instantly from one place to another. And suddenly his world is fabtastic. Money is easy, he simply jumps into a bank vault and jumps away with cash. Wants a holiday, or a change of scenery, then all he does is jumps somewhere new.
It actually sounds kinda ok. But to be honest this film sucks. Sucks sucks sucks. End of review. Short and sweet, but perfectly to the point

- Bill Pullman …. Krugsby
- Michael Angarano …. Freddie
- Danso Gordon …. Sebastian
Up for the award for weirdest film I’ve seen in quite a while. You don’t believe me? Okay, the plot revolves around Dick, who seems to have no friends at all and who lives in a small, nameless town in America that is totally centred on working in the mine. He buys a toy gun as a present for someone he doesn’t like, but doesn’t give it to him. Eventually he discovers that the gun isn’t a toy at all, its real. He falls pretty much in love with this gun, names it Wendy, and forms a type of gang; The Dandies, who are pacifists although they do love their weapons.
Obviously, things do not work out well.
