Standard Screen; Soundtrack English A computer programmer working in the foreign exchange department of a major New York City bank starts receiving messages from a British spy trapped somewhere behind the Iron Curtain. Luckily, he's made contact with her because he needs her help to escape. Terry Dolittle (Whoopi Goldberg) is a brilliant but underappreciated data entry clerk who works for Manhattan's First National Bank under the watchful eye of her dictatorial boss Mr. Page (Peter Goetz). Terry often chats with clients via her terminal, which occasionally picks up Russian television. The tides of Terry's life turn when one day she picks up a transmission from a British spy trapped in Eastern Europe, who has the code name of Jumpin' Jack Flash; he enlists Terry's help in securing an exit contract, sending her on quirky excursions to help him escape and avoid foul play. Thus ensues a convoluted mission where Terry is on the run from the KGB, kidnapped while in a phone booth (phone booth and all), injected with a truth serum, and attempts to get a crucial message to Jack before the Russians have their way with him. She also manages to find love, get back at her boss, and do a great Mick Jagger impression to the fantastic soundtrack of music from the 60s. This is Whoopi in top form!
Color by DeLuxe. Jumpin' Jack Flash Reviews: "...[Goldberg] is an absolute movie natural....She keeps sending out weird curves and bent splinters of off-center energy. She's a remarkably empathic actress..."

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Spy thriller with a pop twist
This is a very funny movie, starring Woopie Goldberg. I love her bright yellow High top Avias. If you love the tunes of the late 60's and early 70's you will get a kick out of their use in this movie. There should be a caution for the language is not for young kids.

Jumpin' Jack Flash film
 $10.29
The feature film debut of Hayao Miyazaki (NAUSICAÄ OF THE VALLEY OF THE WIND, PRINCESS MONONOKE), THE CASTLE OF CAGLIOSTRO depicts one adventure of the master thief Lupin and his rough-around-the-edges gunman, Jigen. Something of a cross between Batman, James Bond, and Cary Grant's character in TO CATCH A THIEF, Lupin is a suave ladies' man who is also given to feats of athletic daring, aided by a gadget filled belt that gets him out of more than a few scrapes. The plot has Lupin and Jigen traveling to the sleepy little country of Cagliostro and coming to the aid of the unwilling fiance of the diabolical Count Cagliostro. After CAGLIOSTRO, Miyazaki stopped creating "slapstick" feature films in favor of more serious fare; CAGLIOSTRO shows, however, that he is quite capable of delivering the goods in this genre. ...

Jumpin' Jack Flash DVD
$9.65
After three years without a studio release, quirky Icelandic songstress Bjork reappeared in full force with 2004's MEDULLA, an album built exclusively around vocal tracks. Continuing on her lifelong trajectory of experimentation, the album is one of her most challenging to date, belying the simplicity of all-vocal source material with the layered complexity and production of the album. Emotional, intimate, and almost physically affecting in its sensuality, the record incorporated the talents of many contributors. INNER PART OF AN ANIMAL PLANT STRUCTURE - THE MAKING OF MEDULLA allows viewers a glimpse of the process that was so vital to the fulmination of this masterpiece. The behind-the-scenes documentary features appearances by Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. ...
