AKA:
Jumper (France) / (Deutschland) / (Greece) / (Turkey) (Turkish title)
Jumper - Franchir le temps (Canada) (French title)
Original soundtrack from Doug Liman sci-fi thriller with Hayden Christensen, Jamie Bell, Rachel Bilson. John Powell anchors with rhythmic ideas, electronic percussion but does keep subtle keyboard lines nearby. At key points, brass add major-key chord progressions for extra brilliance. "Coliseum Fight" one such highlight. Still, rhythm & textures are paramount, melodic lines are secondary throughout - until final track ("Jump Off") where Powell finally draws attention to main hero-theme. Big liability: Just as it gets going, this same track simply quits without resolution. Additional music by James Mckee Smith, John Ashton Thomas. Brett Weymark conducts Sydney Scoring Orchestra.
