Not as good as I had expected. Far too slow moving with no pay off, and the rest only just about held my interest. Also predictable. Liked the opening though.
First one is better than both, but I can't decide between liking the second or this one more. Both heavily flawed, but Jason does get his hockey mask, so I guess this one is cooler.
Didn't particularly enjoy it. Doesn't fit in with the rest of the series, but I guess that's to do with the sequels not following this one properly.
Jason was strange, half-assed explanation about his introduced presence in the film, and which is never really touched upon in the sequels (which really affects continuity... if you care that much about a slasher series' continuity). Also the ending was bad and too ambiguous. Again, the sequels never answered what happened.
A bad adaptation, definitely would benefit from a remake. It was great whenever the theme song played but I hate the way they just edited out the character listing from the song.
Terrible CGI, even by the standards of '95. Sub-Zero and Scorpion were done poorly, general costume design was bad, fights dull. Goro looked kind of neat though. It was so campy at parts that it was almost enjoyable.

Movie comment on Wrongfully Accused
Oneironaut
Very silly and a bit too forced. Along the same lines as the Naked Gun movies, but not as good. Got a few good laughs out of me.Movie comment on The Hunger
Oneironaut
Has some style to it, but it's very boring. Has a different take on vampires which I didn't like.Good to see Bowie in it (for the time he's in it), and spotted a cameo by Willem Dafoe.
Honestly, give it a miss.
Movie comment on Full Metal Jacket
Oneironaut
Great first half, worthless second half. But of course we're still getting the usual Kubrick lovers who can't see any flaws with his movies.Movie comment on Paranormal Activity 2
Oneironaut
Some better scenarios but I liked the first better, it felt more involving. This one was kind of boring.I watched them in the order: 3, 1, 2.
Thought that ordering was pretty good for going through the story.
