YesAsia Editorial Description
Produced by Stephen Chow and helmed by Stephen Fung (House of Fury), zero-to-hero dance comedy Jump is famous for being the movie that got shelved and then reshot after original lead actor Edison Chen's fall from grace. What it should be remembered for though is the luminous performance by leading lady Kitty Zhang (CJ7). In the vein of all great rom-com heroines, Zhang is awkward, funny, and thoroughly lovable as a country mouse who travels to the big city to pursue her dancing dreams. Singapore stud Leon Jay Williams (La Robe De Mariee Des Cieux) brings his idol-drama image to the silver screen as the Prince Charming of the story, while Samuel Pang, Fama, and Daniel Wu pitch in supporting and cameo appearances. From the colorful side characters to the inspirational dancing, Jump often recalls the earnest humor and goofy charm of Stephen Chow's underdog comedies, making the film a fun and crowd-pleasing watch from start to finish.
Happy-go-lucky kung-fu-savvy aspiring dancer Phoenix (Kitty Zhang) lives in the countryside with her father, but she's got her eyes set on farther places. Jumping at the chance to move to shiny Shanghai, she makes ends and dreams meet by working as a janitor at an elite dance studio where she picks up dance moves on the sly. Even with her unfailing spirit, things aren't easy for Phoenix working two jobs and putting up with the mockery from city folks. Enter her knight in shining armor, CEO and studio owner Ron (Leon Jay Williams), who sweeps her off her feet and gives her a spot on the dance team. But is simple-hearted Phoenix ready for the complicated turns of big city love and professional dancing?

Stephen Chow Lite

Edison Chen stole the thunder by getting cut from the movie, but Jump is really Kitty Zhang's show and she rises to the occasion with an infectious ear-to-ear grin. At the risk of sounding cliche, I have to say that Kitty Zhang positively shines in Jump, and all the more so because the movie itself is not the most promising vehicle. Jump has its share of shortcomings, the first being the negative-presence leading men. The second is that the story is pretty much as predictable as they come. Kitty Zhang is the homely country girl who's actually gorgeous. She goes to the city to become a dancer, and experiences many hardships along the way. She meets a rich and handsome guy who makes her dreams come true. Things fall apart over a contrived misunderstanding, and then right themselves in time for a rousing dance-off! Yes, I just revealed the whole movie, but I'm sure you could have guessed as much based on the genre. As a zero-to-hero dancing romantic comedy, Jump does what it's expected to do, and then Kitty Zhang goes the extra smiling mile to make it better. Her lively and charming performance, even opposite Leon Jay Williams's paper-thin acting, makes the movie worth watching. Jump also marks the great teaming of the two Hong Kong actor-turned-directors named Stephen: Stephen Fung as director and Stephen Chow as producer. The latter is obviously far greater than the former, but Stephen Fung has shown himself to be a competent commercial director with his previous efforts. Fung pretty much stays in amusing, sentimental crowd-pleaser territory again with this one, though Jump is a tougher sell overall than Enter the Phoenix and House of Fury. The Stephen Chow influence is clear in the movie's underdog themes, offbeat humor, throw-in kung-fu, and oddball characters, so much so that Jump often feels like a Stephen Chow Lite production. There's a big gap between a Stephen Chow movie and a Stephen Chow-style movie, but considering Chow himself seems to be moving away from Stephen Chow-style productions, we may have to take what we can get. And if what we can get happens to star the lovely Kitty Zhang, all the better. |

I love this story. There is a moral lesson too. This is a story of a country girl of dream of going to the city and explore her chance of a good life. And he met a business tycoon who sponsors a dance competition. I love everything in it. Its a light love story. |
