It also roots the story firmly in important issues of sexual assault and the consequences it carries. It’s an incident that roots her ability to teleport firmly in distress, fear and rage, more akin to a seizure than a superpower. A flirtatious car ride, though, takes a turn for the dark, and Henry fights him off, trying to get out of the vehicle – only to do so by appearing back across town in her bedroom. She’s not the most popular girl in school, but finds herself the unexpected subject of attention from basketball hunk Clay (Tanner Stines). This, instead, is a new teen-focused tale that just so happens to feature Jumping – and the low-key, character-driven approach pays off handsomely.Īfter our initial burst of teleportation, there’s no sign of it in the everyday lie of Henry, who lives with her mum (Missi Pyle) and step-sister (Sarah Desjardins) in New York. It’s no coincidence that the show has played down its connection to Jumper, or that it has jettisoned much of Steven Gould’s original novel upon which the 2008 film was based. Thoughtful and compelling? Those words might seem at odds with the premise of people who can teleport through the world like X-Men, but Impulse’s strength lies in the fact that it moves away from blockbuster action almost immediately after Liman’s eye-popping (and presumably expensive) opener.

The idea of ordering a Jumper TV series might seem like a strange move, but it’s actually a smart way to wrestle a young adult-friendly franchise into something more thoughtful and compelling. That, however, was never due to its concept its visuals and mostly due to its characters and hectic, illogical plot. It’s a bold, striking punch-up with unique choreography and exciting spectacle, uniting the impressive presence of Keegan-Michael Key with the confident direction of Doug Liman.ĭoug Liman? Sci-fi? Jumping? If all of this is starting to ring a bell, that’s because yes, Impulse is part of the Jumper universe – a universe that sputtered into life with Liman’s 2008 film (starring Jamie Bell and Hayden Christensen) and promptly sputtered back out again. The opening is one of the most impressive starts to a series you’ll see this year: within minutes, we’ve jumped from a busy train carriage to a remote icy landscape to the top of a building, and then seen someone plummet from the roof down to pavement below. It’s a statement of intention as much as anger, and the supernatural drama does well to balance both with equal weight. “For the last motherfucking time, I’m not a fucking superhero!” screams teenager Henry (Maddie Hasson) halfway through Impulse, YouTube Premium’s new TV series.
