Pushes Double Dutch depiction to the limit!
Corbin Bleu was locked into the Disney machine from 2006 through 2007, starring in three of the biggest Disney Channel Original Movies in two years. "Jump In!" shares the common DCOM plot trope of a character being torn between conflicting passions and societal gender expectations-similar to the "High School Musical" films-but introduces enough unique elements to set it apart.
Having Keke Palmer as the supporting lead greatly elevates the performance quality of this as a TV movie; she and Bleu have impressive chemistry for such young actors. The inclusion of multiple original, earworm songs might not have been strictly necessary, but it helps solidify "Jump In!" as a top-tier DCOM.

This movie was actually good
I watched this movie on Monday night and let me tell you, I thought it was great! I never knew that double-dutch is taken so seriously by some people. I think that Corbin Bleu did an excellent job playing Izzy in the movie. He is such a great actor and him doing all the gymnastic moves in the beginning was great! Some people may think that the movie was taken place in the "ghetto" but there was nothing ghetto about it. It's just a movie where a young teenage boy who is a boxer, wants to give it up because it's his fathers dreams. Not his. This movie shows that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. Don't let anyone stop you. Corbin and KeKe Palmer are great workers together. You can easily tell that they have great chemistry with one another. I believe that you guys would enjoy this movie. Only if you can understand the true meaning of double-dutch and how it's taken seriously about something. It's not just about jumping rope, but about putting your heart and soul into something you really want to do.
Corbin's Got The Moves
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.

Good movie
I thought the movie was a very good family movie. Corbin & Keke did a great job. The movie obviously worked around the "double dutch" but I would have liked to see a little more about Izzy's family situation. Kylee Russell as his little sister was a perfect match, because they could truly be siblings.
The interaction of the main characters was great. Keke and Corbin worked well together and the supporting characters were very enterataining. There appeared to be a lot of chemistry, which made the movie flow very naturally. I thought that Kylee Russell did a really good job. She seemed to have the right spunk as the little sister of a "cute and popular" big brother. I hope they do a sequel and spend a little more time with Izzy and Karin.
Overall I thought this was a really good Disney movie. Most of the people I talked to really enjoyed it. And thought it was just a nice movie to watch with the kids.
GOOD JOB Disney.

Not bad
Jump In is great! It tells an amazing story about doing what you love no matter what other people say. The acting was believable and felt genuine. The music was terrific, along with the Double Dutch performances. It surprised how well done this movie is. The only thing I wish was that I saw more connecting moments between Izzy and his family and Mary. I feel like adding in Marry and Izzy was pretty pointless and I would've been fine with them flirting but nothing else.
Overall, it's great.
Did you know
- TriviaDavid Reivers who plays Corbin Bleu's dad in the movie is his dad in real life.
- GoofsIn the City Finals, as the first routine (with Keke Palmer's song, It's My Turn) is ending, right before Keisha and Izzy do the flip, you can identify that the stunt double is jumping rope instead of Izzy. The complexion of the skin is different and if you pause at the right time you can see the stunt double's face.
