Summary: Best horror film for 2002!
Review: Let me start off by saying I do alot of reviews for cds instead of movies but, when it comes to Friday The 13th I have got to review it. I am a big Friday The 13th fan and I have been one ever since I saw Part 1 on television! I saw this the day it hit theaters! The plot is a space team have recovered Jason's body at Camp Crystal Lake and he is now locked up. He has killed 191 people or more. Some idiot goes up to him and he breaks out! Yes! He then kills everyone in the room except for a girl. He then looks in a frezzer to see if she is in there. She locks him in and pushes a button to frezze him. Him stabs her through the door and she dies. Then a few years into the future a team find her and have equipment that can bring her back to life. They said that there was no way to bring Jason back. They bring that girl back to life but, Jason unfrezzes and kills a woman in the room in a cool way! Then Jason kills almost everyone on the ship but, there is a robot that has all kinds of guns. She beats Jason up and she eventually blows his head off. This is where you think he is dead but, not for long. One of those machines brings him back to life and gives him an upgrade. He is unstoppable! The team get out in a pod and the leader or somebody flies into him in an astronaut suit. They land in Crystal Lake which is where the next film should take place! This is an excellent Slasher film and on of the best Jason films around go see it! I can't wait for DVD to come out because, I'm getting it!

Summary: One Of The Worst Horror Movies EVER!
Review: I'm one of the biggest Friday the 13th fans, but this was completely ridiculus. I went into the theater thinking, "wow, I think this is going to be the best one yet". After 45 minutes I left. Yes, the way Jason Voorhees (Kane Hodder) sliced up people was diffrent. But that doesnt make a horror movie. The aliens, the time travel, the rebuilding of a human body, its all pathedic. Well, this franchise should be fed to the dogs now. Considering I loved 'Jason Goes To Hell', which most people hated, then you must agree with me here. This sinks quicker then it starts! Avoid this and rent the original nine previous volumes of the Camp Crystal Lake horrors.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Could this be the best movie ever?!
Review: Could this be the best movie ever? No, not really, but when you go to see a movie called "Jason X", your expectations have to be mighty low. So to see such a brilliant piece of film just shattered my beliefs on badness of a movie.
I think badness in movies runs in a circle. Toward one direction [clockwise] is goodness of a movie. Toward the other direction is badness. "Jason X" goes counterclockwise so much that it winds up on the good half. THAT is how beautiful it is. That song "Let the Bodies Hit the Flo" is awesome as well. NOT!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I've never been so bored!
Review: OMG!! this was absolutely the dumbest movie I've ever seen. What a piece of [pooh](Kane hodder should be ashamed of himself)
Too much humor I thought. The uber-jason section was ok, but also dumb. The costume is not creepy, it's more cyborg-ish. Best part was the Crystal lake hologram. That was meant to be funny and it was. If they do another one (and I hope they don't) Make it horrific, scary as hell. no humor(or a very small dose of it) Use back story. I fear the series is really over.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Let the good times roll
Review: This moive was well worth the wait, if your a fan of Jason and his past killings. Overall the film was not all that bad, it doesn't leave you dissapointed lets say that. The Uber-Jason was sweet, just should have seen more screen time. The whole space theme works just because its nice to see Jason outside the camp for a change. The ending sets up for a hopeful Jason 11, I for one would like to see 13 of this series. With Freddy vs. Jason set to start filming this fall, maybe the Jason franchise will make a comeback.
Time to break out the hockey mask!!

Summary: Jason X: A Fun and Frightening Good Movie
Review: The beginning starts out pretty good, and gets better the further along it goes. The part when the android woman takes on Jason was really good and funny, too. Jason did look really cool when he was healed and had on the new suit. When Jason goes into the virtual reality Camp Crystal Lake and has the two girls in the sleeping bags beating them with each other will go down as one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a horror movie. So, in all, it's a great and original movie that's scray and kind of funny in all the right spots. It's a really fun movie.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Why do things like this happen?
Review: Everyone is entitled to an opinion but I don't understand how anybody could find this movie in the least bit enjoyable, unless you view it for its comic value, Which is still not enough to save it, even with a group of friends. This movie totally disgraces the entire Friday the 13th series. The problems begin very early. First of all it is in outer space! Why? I know it's the future, but lets not get ahead of ourselves, this movie is part of the Friday series not the Star Trek. Second, the whole formula that made the Friday series work has vanished. A spaceship just doesn't have the same atmospheric effect as say the forest where people are all alone and running for their lives while Jason trails them with whatever convinent tool he has found to do the dismemeber them with. The classic music is almost non existent in this movie which is a centerpiece of the Friday series. Third, the movie is beyond corny, and predictable. The deaths could have made this movie slightly amusing, but no. There just so unoriginal and boring. Everyone is dead before you even figure out who they are. Mere words can't describe my hatred toward this movie. The only redemable part of this movie is when the spaceship is briefly transformed into Camp Crystal Lake. But by this time Jason is in his new and ridiculous futuristic mask, which almost ruins the only pleasable scene in the movie. I still don't know how this movie ever made it to the silver screen. If people are going to revive the Friday series give it some oxygen not gas. I felt humiliated after leaving the theater. I'm not the biggest Jason fan but I do enjoy the series and could only imagine what hardcore fans must have been feeling seeing their favorite horror icon put to shame in this worthless installment of a rather enjoyable and according to many classic series.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Where's all the gore? Jason's become a wimp!
Review: As a great fan of the Friday series, I got a big kick out of the trailers for "Jason X". When all long-running horror series seem to have run their course, where can you possibly go with it? Duh. Space. Fine. I saw "Leprachaun In Space", and I wasn't horribly disappointed by that. But the Friday people really [messed up] on this one. And it was a no brainer: lots of gory and creative murder and mayhem--that's all they needed. It is a horror sequel, and the rules state it must have more of this gore than any previous installment to earn its kudos.

In the trailer, my favorite moment was when one character shouts back to the rest, "It's okay! He just wanted his machete back!" I paid my nine bucks to see that guy get his head chopped off by the looming Jason Vorhees. Did I get that visual? No.

Sure, the plot made no sense, the acting was awful, the direction would have been better executed by a sickly monkey. But this wasn't why I was so aggravated with this movie. Why didn't I get to see that guy's head go flying? They didn't have the budget? They had to trim the violence for an "R" rating? Why?

You make a Friday movie, you've got to have all the gore and then some. Yes, there were two creative killings (one with a giant corkscrew and the other involving some liquid nitrogen) but that does not a ninety minute movie make. The people at New Line Cinema should be ashamed of themselves.

Summary: The Best In the Series
Review: The majority of the critics didn't like Jason X, but I think it was awesome. It's about time that another Friday the 13th movie comes out, because Jason Goes To Hell was the worst movie in the series that I have seen. I'm glad that they have brought Jason Voorhies back to the big screen, and I think that this movie will inspire others to bring back the other classic horror icons; for example, Michael Myers, Freddy Kruger, and Chucky. I hope the next Jason movie is as good as Jason X.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Jason X
Review: I'm a person that usually doesn't explain the movie since a lot of the reviews already explain it, instead i tell my thoughts about movies! Jason X was ok, not great not bad. I did have my hopes all the way up for this movie and left my computer somewhat dissapointed. The first thing that i did not understand was how they got him back from hell... that was the most important question i was looking for. The acting is pretty bad but also funny not to mention some of the killing scenes they are hilariouse. i personally enjoyed the ultimate Jason (looks more like a robot) but i hope if they make another they will not keep the look he had, it was not scary it was just more like "WOW he looks awesome!" instead "Oh my god he's so ugly and scary!" So to put it this way Story = Ok, Acting = Horrible, Blood = Good, Killings = Good, Jason = Pretty Good besides the look somewhat!!! Just rent it when it comes out or if your a big Jason Fan watch it in theatres
