I must admit not being a great fan of the original Friday the 13th movies -- I was always more of a "Nightmare on Elm Street" kid. However, I had the opportunity to view a pre-release copy of "Jason X", and I must say that I was quite impressed. I was somewhat expecting to see the same low-budget sets, amateurish acting, and spotty directing which plagued the previous installments, but I was pleasantly surprised. As alien as it may seem, taking into account the other movies' mostly woodsy surroundings, the futuristic setting of "Jason X" was quite refreshing. The movie had action, horror, and humor in a good mix, and I thought it quite entertaining. Obviously, if you were never a fan of the Jason movies, you will likely hate this one as well, but I think that "Jason X" will not disappoint fans of the series in any respect. Though I saw it early for free, I am still going to pay to see it in the theaters just to support this movie. Thumbs up!
