An awesome horror slasher reboot Jared Padalecky was the best in this film (by ivo-cobra8) |
This reboot in my opinion is a great horror slasher film from 2009 mostly because of Jared Padalecki. In this reboot from Friday the 13th film series, Jared Padalecki from Supernatural was awesome in this. Both of the actors from Supernatural Jansen Ackles and Jared Padalecki in 2009 were playing in a horror slasher remakes the lead protagonists. Jensen Ackles tried with the film My Blood Valentine 3D playing Tom J. Hanniger the main protagonist. While Jared Padalecki tried his portrayal the protagonist Clay Miller in Friday the 13th 2009 . I must say both of the actors did a good job in <more> |
Solid outing for the angry goalie (by Darth_Yoda) |
In response to Wayne Malin, the acting is much better than in the rest of the movies, you do hear the ch-ch-ch-ch-ah ah ah ah in this, and for those of you who don't recall, the original did have nudity in it. Remember Kevin bacon's big sex and death scene? I'm thinking Wayne here didn't even bother seeing this movie and is one of those guys that sits on IMDb all day on his mothers MAC.This movie is a lot of fun, and has what I personally enjoy. Hot chicks having sex and getting killed, silly comic relief types a la Jimbo and Ted from the final chapter and good splatty <more> |
Entertaining!!! (by tenhighguy) |
I hate remakes. This was not a remake... as many people have said. It is an homage to the first four movies, and it does an amazing job. I was tense through out the whole film. Not only was this movie thrilling but it was FUNNY! The cast was amazing all together. Amanda Rhegetti was phenomenal and beautiful as ever. But then again all the girls were gorgeous note... a lot of nudity! . The guy who plays Trent, was BY FAR my favorite in the whole cast. This guy was the guy you loved to hate... the lovable ass, if you will. But its hard to play that role. Its easy to play an ass that you hate, <more> |
Friday the 13th 2009 - A Stupendous Addition to the Series (by jonas33333) |
As a fan of the horror genre and all the ones in this series that matter, I am thrilled to finally say "Thank you for doing it right!!!" to the people involved with making this film.I didn't expect it to be good. I walked into the theater wondering "How are they going to mess this one up?" Years of remakes have made me and presumably many others calloused and weary of all the foul-ups. This fan is very pleased.To begin with, this time was different. I actually felt like I did while originally watching the better parts of this series 1,2,3,4,6 and a little 7 . The <more> |
An amazing instalment to the series. (by example_now) |
The remake i had been waiting for, Friday the 13th had everything, all the conventions of the series and a fun easy to follow plot that is more than most of the sequels, i hope that this reboot for the series is enough to give a good few more sequels, i can't see why i wouldn't as it had our main man Jason and the usual chills and thrill to appeal to a modern day audience 9/10 only 9 because i felt the first part of the film was a little rushed! but other than that just what the doctor ordered!Friday the 13th has been reborn and with a US weekend in the box office like that i <more> |
The Movie was Great! (by cmbstudio) |
I'm a huge Friday the 13th Fan for one reason... it's a fun ride. This ride was a pure Date flick. It had a mixture of Drama, scares and laughters. I love the way they flashed the backstory. It was quick and precise with the right temperament for the audience to know jason's motives.The Characters were fun. They were light hearted and Naive yes. But hey, it is Friday the 13th film. I enjoyed a lot of the actors especially the Asian actor Aaron Yoo. He added the proper humor to the film. The Women were sexy as hell....Damn Crystal Lake rocks! Drugs, sex,etc... what do you think a <more> |
Pleasantly Surprised (by realisticcriticism) |
It's rare these days I enter a movie theater to see a horror film and leave anything short of sorely disappointed but today differed from recent past experiences. I've been a fan of the original Friday The 13th for many years now and was of course skeptical of this "remake" but decided to give it a shot nonetheless. I'm a fan of horror movies - this includes good, bad, and indifferent so I figured why not? Being that Friday The 13th was one of my favorites, I didn't expect much. From start to finish the film keeps you on the edge of your seat. It isn't so much <more> |
Balance not quite right (by jtindahouse) |
Friday the 13th has an incredibly powerful first 15-20 minutes. It really kicks off with a bang. Jason is back better than ever. Then something goes fractionally wrong and we fall back into old territory. Everything becomes a bit too familiar. Still, it does better than most horror films in the sense that it really doesn't become too tedious until the last 10 minutes or so.The main characters are strong in their performance without being memorable. The cameos are the real scene stealers including a gas station attendant and a man named Donnie. A lot of the jokes from all concerned really <more> |
The best installment in the series (by metal360) |
Many remakes of horror classics never seem to be as good as the original. And that is mostly due to a different style of the new horror films, relying on gore instead of suspense. But unlike many horror classics, Friday the 13th was never a great film to begin with. But there were three things that kept us seeing each of the Friday the 13th films: naked teenagers, Jason, and creative murders. All of which there are plenty of in this flick. Many critics have criticized this movie for being "cynical," and because most of the teenagers are so scummy. However, I personally thought that <more> |
