I went into this movie with high hopes. I have always been a big fan of the whole Friday the 13th series, but after watching this, I was left feeling very disappointed. It seemed like three quarters of the movie was either sex or Jason having mommy issues. We didn't get into the characters whatsoever (not like we would have wanted to with how annoying all of them were.) I am a big Jared Paledecki fan from watching Supernatural, but even he let me down on this one.The thing that bothered me the most about this whole movie was how smart they made Jason. The Jason from the original movies was all about being huge and scary, but he wasn't known for being smart. This movie had him setting traps and doing all kinds of things that Jason normally wouldn't do. People in the previous films were able to at least run away from him or hide for a while, but somehow the Jason in this film was always on top of where everyone was at all times. It just bugged me altogether. The horror genre is my all time favorite, but horror movies these days just aren't impressing me, and this is just another one of those.
