Review by Ken
2½ stars out of 4
The producers pulled out all the stops in trying to make this final Friday
movie the best of the lot. Well, I have to admit that the opening sequence
was pretty cool. But then the writers had to bring in all this bullshit
about how Jason is actually this demonic entity who survives by transferring
his soul from one body to another; and that is why he's managed to survive
for so many sequels. Many hardcore fans were outraged by this stupid
explanation. Hell, I was outraged by it. The whole enigma of Jason is that
he was this unstoppable killing machine that just could not be put down. But
the producers had to go and mess it up by introducing a lame-ass
supernatural element to it. Having said that, one has to admit that of all
the Friday movies thus far, this one has the goriest make-up effects yet; as
well as the highest number of nude shots ( including a very graphic sex
scene) and one of the largest body counts ever. So yeah; even though it got
screwed in the storyline department, it's still pretty entertaining in a
senseless sort of a way. Also, the Freddy cameo appearance redeemed it
somewhat.
