Phone: Some viewers complain about the amount of interviews and footage about free running itself versus the amount of actual footage of free running in action during Foucan and friends' excursion in London. Some are disappointed by free running being depicted as a physical art or discipline and would rather just see big jumps with no ulterior purpose.
One must understand, however, that for practitioners of the discipline, obstacles are not just obstacles, but are rather metaphors for challenges in life, and that free running and parkour carry with them, inherently, a heavy dose of philosophy not unlike that found in many martial arts. To truly understand and appreciate Jump London, it is helpful to read up a bit on the discipline beforehand.
Sites such as www. In any fashion, Jump London promises an exhilarating visual journey through the physical application of free running, while simultaneously introducing viewers to some of the top names and faces of the discipline today. Jump London is a great watch for anyone who is impressed by the human body's ability to do amazing physical feats.

Talked to death but has some amazing shots - but too few for an hour! Having developed from a childhood game, Free Running has been given global recognition due to a series of adverts for Toyota, Nike and the BBC to name a few.
The recognised creator of the discipline, which involves running and jumping over buildings and any other obstacles, comes to London with several others to run, skip and jump across many of the famous landmarks of the city. Heavily trailed in the media, this television film promised much but sadly left me slightly underwhelmed.
Part of the problem is just how long it is and how little material there is to fill it. The first 40 minutes is full of interviews with the free-runners, looking at the history of the discipline etc. This is interesting to a point, but it has the effect of talking up the subject to the point that, when the footage actually arrives, it is not as spectacular as it has been hyped as being.
This is not to say that some of it is not amazing to watch, cause it is, but there are only a handful of really amazing jumps which, in my mind, do not justify an hour long film. It becomes more than some guys jumping around, it becomes some sort of almost spiritual journey which just comes off sounding pretentious.
Founcan himself is the guiltiest party in this regard. He talks in depth about how he is freeing himself on obstacles designed to ensnare and entrap him etc, and he does come off sounding like he's just a bit too smug and full of himself. It is a shame because he is a very athletic guy. The production company don't help things by contrasting footage of the running with footage of ballet and art - suggesting that this is worthy of the same stature.
It never got as spectacular as the media blurbs made it sound but it is still very impressive. I'd get tired climbing stairs never mind jumping across rooftops! Was this review helpful?

The idea of following three Frenchmen around London as they performed the art of Free Running inside and on top of some of the city's most prestigious landmarks had seemed ridiculous to most producers, and indeed, it could have been seen in the same light by Channel 4 viewers.
It wasn't, and Free Running was given a launch pad with which to capture the imagination of an entire country. Sebastien Foucan, Jerome Ben Aoues, Johann Vigroux are three Frenchmen who have been practising the "discipline" of free running for most of their lives.
