It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This product from the Disney Studios finds young Corbin Bleu taking center stage as a young Golden Gloves boxer who joins a jump rope competition with a bunch of girls. Naturally something like this is going to raise some eyebrows, especially among the group he travels with.There are some who might say Corbin should have been the one starring in those High School Musical flicks and in Jump In, Corbin shows what he can do in a starring role. He certainly has the moves for boxing, dancing, and for double dutch jump roping.Corbin Bleu is one of the more winning personalities that come out of the Magic Kingdom currently and he and Keke Palmer make a very nice young couple on the screen. Corbin even got a hit song out of the film, Push It To The Limit, a motto to use in both boxing and double dutch.You could do a lot worse than this film and the Magic Kingdom has on occasion.

Although I did like this movie a little bit, I thought it was basically a remake of High School Musical. However, instead of the star being the "basketball guy", he's the "boxing guy". In both movies the star has a pushy father who wants his son to play the sport that he played as a young adult. Also, the star meets a new girl he likes, and he wants to try something new that she likes, such as trying out for a musical, or, in this case, doing double dutch. His friends will rag on him because it's "not his thing", and he will have to choose between what he wants to do, and what everybody else wants him to do. These two stories are one in the same, just from a different point of view.

Jump In is one of the best movies that Disney Channel has ever created (Along with High School Musical, the Famous Jett Jackson, Cheetah Girls & Zenon Girl of the 21st Century.) Although the story line reflected a lot of the same concepts of those displayed in High School Musical, the audience (including myself) really enjoyed it. This movie was well cast, however, the actor's abilities were not adequately displayed, meaning that both Corbin and Keke are capable of acting 100 times better than what they did in this movie, but seeing as though it is Disney Channel... Corbin Bleu should really expand and explore the world of actual movies, because according to his previous works, he is really talented and would do well. Keke is already creating feature films and should continue to do so. She is a talented young girl with a promising career (in my opinion at least). All in all, I love this movie. Keep it up Disney!

First of all, I have to tip my hat to Disney. In the past, the movies they have made have been over exaggerated kid-movies. Before seeing this film I never thought much of jump roping as a sport, just an activity. It TRULY changed my mind. The storyline begins with Izzy (Corbin) a young aspiring boxer who becomes a stepper in a local double-dutch jump roping team. Izzy now finds himself stuck choosing between boxing and jump roping, friendship and family, who people want him to be, and where his heart truly lies. Not to mention mocks from piers, and a bully who tests Izzy's limits.It's good to see a movie that is realistic, and yet has good morality. Jump In! captures your attention by awesome meandering dance moves, shuffled into jumping and ropes and a bracing storyline to go with it. Corbin Bleu brilliantly makes his mark in Jump In!
