Jumper. It was setting up an interesting world with more depth than the first movie could delve. I loved that one of the characters was so cool that the author of the original novel went out and wrote another book just about the movie's character and it rocked.

In a similar vein, Chronicle. I absolutely love that film

I'll make a note to check Chronicle out.

I loved Chronicle, but I'm not sure I would have loved a sequel.

The novel Jumper by Steven Gould, on which the film Jumper was based, spawned a continuing series that went on for a while and kept being pretty good. For the hell of it the author also wrote Jumper: Griffin's Story which wasn't part of his novels' continuity, instead it was a prequel to the movie.
