Sam L. Jackson has some straaaaaaaange career choices, but I still enjoy watching him on the big screen.

I have to agree with the movie being lame and I can’t even remember the soundtrack so it must not have stood out at all when I watched it. I wish Samuel L. Jackson would pick his movies more carefully. It would seem that he will take any job if it provides the cash. At least with Snakes on a Plane he made a goodbad movie and sold it as a joke. They were trying to make Jumper serious, but it just never took.

Yeah, John Powell has done some great work and i am positive he’ll do great work again. The best is yet to come sounds good to me. He usually does action scores so well. I wonder what happened?

Ah well, all is forgiven Mr. Powell. Just keep scoring!

Again we must be Separated at birth. I love John Powell and concur on a cursory listening of his latest. How disappointed I am like a kid on Christmas Morning thinking I will get something like the first Bourne Soundtrack, Italian Job, Mr and Mrs Smith, or Paycheck and wind up getting something like Jumper.

Don’t tell me “the Best yet has been done.” I want to hear “the Best is yet to come.”

I find it quite enjoyable to read your blog. Thank you for creating it and I look forward to participating.

I hate this movie so much, I failed to see if they got a decent musical background or whatever…hate this film!

Yep, seems so. Powell can do so much better than this.

Weak soundtrack, weak movie. All around mediocrity!
