Jump - 跳出去



Jump (跳出去) is a 2009 film out of China. The movie stars Kitty Zhang as a country bumpkin that moves to the big city. The other notable cast member is Leon Jay Williams. The movie is produced by Stephen Chow and directed by Stephen Fung.

Kitty Zhang plays Phoenix, a country girl that loves to dance. A former member of the country city returns and says that he can hire 3 people back to his factory. Phoenix and her best friend make it. There, she persue her dreams of dancing. Hooking up as a cleaner at a dance studio, Phoenix learns moves and grooves to the surroundings. Eventually, she's good enough to represent the school!

What a story! If you don't know, Kitty Zhang was hand picked by Stephen Chow as his next vixen in CJ7. Kitty Zhang has gone on to Shaolin Girl and now Jump with Chow's production company.

Kitty however isn't very pretty as a country bumpkin. In fact, its a sight to behold, especially at the end of the movie. Where you wonder, is Kitty really a vixen?

Back to the movie, should you watch it? Yes, its irrelevant fun. The end with its bend of kung fu to hip hop plays only slightly different than Kung Fu Hip Hop.

End of 2009 - Movies to look out for

2009 has been a very good year for movies. If you look at the 2009 Golden Horse movies, it tends to be on the artsy side of things.

However, for most people with little time and a selective attention span (ahem...ADD), we like the "blockbuster" type films during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

Here are movies that are being release in Asia during the last weeks of 2009. I won't be catching these films until 2010 myself.
