I thought it was all right. I liked that it didn't take itself too seriously and had fun with some standard horror cliches. I felt that this version of Jason was a very different killer than the previous movies. He seemed more intense and like he was making a bigger effort to get his kills. I'm used to seeing Jason walk after his victims instead of running. I liked that they put a little bit of a different spin on his character for the remake.

I thought the beginning with Mrs. Vorrhees was unneccesary but I actually kind of liked the extended intro with the group of campers. I've gotten used to intros being a 5 minute or less clip so once in awhile I like to see a movie stray from the standard formula.

All in all, it was a fun watch. Not quite worth the $9.25 ticket price, and it's certainly no work of horror genius but I did enjoy myself.
