LoveHKfilm, by Kozo source: http://www.lovehkfilm.com/reviews_2/jump.html
«Jump is fun, fluffy, and likely forgettable. But hey, that's okay. Jump is lightweight and throwaway, but it should entertain families and young teens. ... Most of all, Jump has Kitty Zhang. She won't and shouldn't win any awards for the film, but it's great to see a Chinese actress who can headline a commercial comedy so effortlessly.»
Twitch, by James Marsh source: http://twitchfilm.net/reviews/2009/11/jump-review.php
«However, producer Stephen Chow (whose unique brand of zany comedy is sprinkled throughout) and Fung have delivered an entertaining and marginally inspiring film that should play well with the kids throughout Asia, if not beyond that. Kitty Zhang shows herself to be more than just a pretty face with some rather impressive moves ...»
movieXclusive.com, by Stefan Shih - 3,5/5 source: http://www.moviexclusive.com/review/jump/jump.html
«Dance fans may be a tad disappointed given the lack of dance itself... Thankfully Kitty Zhang proved to be more than just a pretty face, and possessed the ability to carry off moments of absurd comedy, the energetic dance moves, fall victim as the damsel in romantic distress, and executing some mean kung fu moves to shine as the complete package, and a star in the making to watch out for! »
