The silliness of Jump Tomorrow takes your breath away, and I mean that as high praise.
The acting is superb across the board, especially from Adebimpe.
A light and extremely likable comedy -- just what the doctor ordered right now.
The plot unfolds with the gradual richness of something by Eric Rohmer, who has the whole canvas in view from the beginning but uncovers it a square inch at a time. By the end of Jump Tomorrow I was awfully fond of the picture.
The performances are extremely good, and the tone maintains a droll continuity throughout.
Delightful mix of swinging '60s style, road movie conventions and age-old romantic comedy tropes that coasts along on little more than charm, and does it delightfully.
There's a certain breed of annoying indie movie in which a character's shyness is portrayed in a manner so coy that it becomes a reverse form of exhibitionism. Jump Tomorrow is that kind of movie.
