Listen up, anyone who actually knows what they're talking about will tell you the same thing I'm about to. It's not the 80's anymore, and what was scary back then isn't now. What worked in a movie back then won't exactly work today... This movie does a fantastic job of both updating, and restarting the series for today's audience. I'm not some new Friday the 13th fan just jumping on the Jason bandwagon; I've been watching these movies since I was a kid. I own all the originals and have seen them more times than I can count, I'm a true Jason fan, and this new installment is easily the best to date. They go with the classic Friday formula, kids in the woods, drugs, sex, and plenty of kills. But Jason has never been as threatening as he is now, and he's not even an unstoppable zombie yet. Now he runs, he's smarter, and less forgiving than ever... It's a "Must Go" in my opinion, but this is definitely not for everyone hence the "Go". Leave the kids at home folks, trust me.

Ok. first off i loved this movie better than the last 6 we got. Here is my problem with the people who say this was a bad movie. #1 Michael Bay. Ok He produced this movie rite? ok so i guess he made this movie. NO NO NO! FAIL! It's The directors who made this movie, the editors the writers, the actors the special fx team, the stunt team. NOT HIM! So quit acting like he did something to make this movie! You guys take it as if he directed this movie. no he didnt so shut up! #2 the gore/sex. Ok One there must be a lot of guys who do not have sex because the sex in this movie is more realistic. I never had more fun doing anything besides sex so this is more real. the gore factor is more real too. WTF is wrong with reality? You act like sense jason didnt twist off a girls head with his hands it was a bad movie. Thats so GAY! Last #3 It's the same as the others. Holy god i hear this "oh it's nothing different" besides the kidnapping.YOU WOULD CRY IF IT WAS FRESH AND DIFFERENT TOO! SO STFU!

I went to the midnight showing of Friday the 13th and enjoyed it. The thing i hate about the Friday the 13th movies is how they make the teenagers out to be. Most of the women are whores and the guys are always horny and they all drink and do drugs. To me in this movie it seemed like they were making fun of the fact that is what the older ones did. The teenagers were very over the top with wanting to have sex, drinking, and doing drugs but thats not the story here. Jason was better in this movie than the previous ones in my opinion. Also one person on here said they hated that Jason ran, cause he didn't run in the other ones, but if you go back and watch the second one, Jason runs and chases the chick back towards his house. So i guess that one doesnt count either. If you like Jason and Friday the 13th movies go see this, if you hate remakes then don't go cause you will find something wrong with it.

This was an awesome movie. People ding left and right. Pretty gnarley ways to die too. This is by far the best jason movie so far. I went and saw the premier and the entire crowd was screaming and clapping. You must go see this movie if you like good horror flicks. Although Im partial to Friday the Thirteenth movies (they are my favorite scary movies series ever) I cant wait to see this movie. The remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre was excellent and this is exactly that

Yay! At Crystal Lake, teenagers are still dumb as dirt, Jason lives forever and thanks to Michael Bay things go boom. This is a mash-up of the original Friday the 13th & Friday the 13th Part 2, for you purists out there. Okay, so there's about 10 minutes of the first film, just enough to set the stage. Then Jason makes it out and does his usual hack-n-slash. The special effects are old-school (by that I mean latex and kayro syrup blood rather than CGI) and yet they still stand up to today's super-high resolution film by looking cool, not super-phony. The actors and actresses (if I can use the terms) do alright, but considering they're just meat for the machete, they don't really have too much to do except scream, run and die. But hey, that's what we're here for, right? You like horror movies? Then you've already made up your mind to see this. But if you have any reservations at all, go for it!
