Jumper

Advantages: Jamie Bell, visually stunning, interesting idea
Disadvantages: Hayden Christensen, boring, drags out a bit

...This film is based primarily around David Rice, played by Hayden Christensen. As a teenager David discovers he has a strange power - he can jump from place to place, essentially teleporting himself to different locations. He begins by using this power to rob banks, using the money to get himself a luxury apartment. Unfortunatley for David, religious Roland (Samuel L Jackson) knows about the jumpers and hates them, believing that only God should have the power to move like they do. He considers it to be his job to kill all of them, and begins to track them down with the help of his group, the Paladins. David is not remotely discreet with his jumping, sometimes jumping right in front of people, and so it does not take very long before people start to notice. Luckily for David, the first person to catch up with him is another jumper...

A Woolly Jumper

Advantages: A great performance from Jamie Bell and impressive set pieces.
Disadvantages: Hayden Christensen is terrible and there is little plot.

...After being abandoned by his mother at an early age, David has used his ability to teleport (or ?jump?) to escape his abusive father and establish an affluent lifestyle for himself. He thinks he?s the only person with the ability until he meets Griffin, a vastly more experienced Jumper who reveals that David is part of an age-old war he didn?t even know existed. David soon encounters Cox, the leader of the Paladin organisation who believes Jumpers are too powerful and dangerous. So their sole purpose is to destroy them. Griffin has fought and evaded them since childhood and David must learn from him if he wants to survive and protect his childhood sweetheart Millie from the Paladins. There was a time when Doug Liman was the next big thing as far as directing was concerned, but it appears that time is long gone. He?s traded in the sly...

Asos Heart Jacquard Cropped Jumper

Advantages: Comfy, looks good
Disadvantages: Price (but worth it)

...This is a round neck long sleeved jumper which is quite close fitting so is very feminine as it shows off my curves. This is not a boyfriend style jumper so if you want an oversized look you will need to buy 2/3 sizes bigger than your actual size. It is waistline length and the ribbed detailing on the waistline (3-4 inches) gives a belt effect as it's slightly tighter than the rest of the jumper. It is not a top that is ideal for wearing with leggings due to the shortness of it.The jumper is patterened all over (both front and back) with oversized styled hearts which are very shabby chic due to the inaccuracy of the lining; they look like the've been almost drawn on which is very cute. The jumper is available in 2 colours; navy blue with creamy white hearts or an orangey pink colour (which Asos list as pink, although in my...
