The Jump

About This Movie

So, 'The Jump' from '87—it's an interesting piece in the animation genre. The director isn’t known, which adds an air of mystery, right? The plot kicks off with two parachuters taking the leap, and then things spiral into chaos. The animation style has this raw, almost experimental vibe, capturing the tension and unpredictability of their descent. There's a unique blend of dark humor and suspense that keeps you on edge. The pacing is a bit erratic, mirroring the characters’ plight. What stands out are the practical effects used for the parachuting sequences, which have a certain charm. It’s not your usual animated fare; it has a distinct tone that feels both unsettling and oddly engaging.
