Box office blog: 'Jumper' jumps to No. 1

The ability to teleport certainly would be helpful during the dog dogs of winter (not to mention the never-ending CTA woes), and audiences showed their interest in globe-hopping over the weekend by vaulting the lame Hayden Christensen sci-fi flick "Jumper" to the top of the box office with $27.2 million.

Proving that people will never get sick of the same ol' dancing movies, "Step Up 2 the Streets" racked up $19.7 million to place second, with the surprisingly trippy family film "The Spiderwick Chronicles" close behind with $19.1 million. The weekend's best movie, the pleasant romantic comedy "Definitely, Maybe," only made $9.7 million and placed fifth.

Are people actually less interested in romantic comedies on Valentine's Day weekend? And why does Hayden Christensen always look so bored?

The filming style of Jumper made me feel like i myself was jumping around, which was cool. Also Christensen’s lines were as short as possible, which was ideal for the movie’s overall quality.
