rj-stone7's reviews

I watched the Extended Cut last night and realized I hadn't watched that version since I first watched my DVD years ago! SMH I remember being upset, to say the least, when I learned they truly were remaking my favorite slasher killer! Just WHY?!? They tried... I personally liked some of the kills. Jason was crazy fast in this, impossibly quick at Trent's cabin with a quickness, when I know it took a good minute to get there and back from his. Jason's speed running was freaky in a scary way because it's like how could you possibly outrun him?!

For the other reviewers that mentioned him running, I agree - that's not part of his profile, but I think many forget that Jason INDEED ran in Friday the 13th Part IV, when he was chasing Trish! Even tho it was a dream, Jason also ran towards Chris at the end of Friday the 13th Part III, when she was in the boat. :)

All the nudity and language, especially, seemed forced! The Jason movies from back in the day knew how to show just enough and be discreet and not use f-bombs every time someone spoke. It adds nothing to the character speaking, and majority of the time, isn't even needed.

I'd always see this on the Netflix lineup but never really knew what it was about. I came on here to news the reviews first - non spoilers. Seems like many didn't like it. I didn't think it was slow-paced in the beginning or had some slow parts in the middle read needed to be faster. IDK. Everything has a nice flow to me. The plot isn't anything new for the most part. The ending was definitely a nice twist as someone else stated. This was a different role for Hilary Swank and I think she played CRAZY very well! It was interesting to see the tables turned on Michael Ealy when you think about his character from "The Perfect Guy". ;-)

The movie kinda dragged before anything exciting happened! I will say, my suspicions were correct but there was a twist at the end that had me second-guess myself for a moment. I mean, it's obvious but the reason WHY could've been developed more. I give the movie 6/10 stars only because of the twist at the end. As much as I love technology, I wouldn't want my whole house operated by it because of the very issues Nancy was experiencing!

This is my first review since they've changed the required amount of characters which is beyond annoying! So, I'm just trying to use those up! I hope they change it back or make it LESS than 600!

There's probably about 20 minutes left in this movie as I'm writing this. The principal makes me want to fast-forward to get to the ending already! He has me doing plenty of eye-rolls at how quickly his disposition changed! Don't get me started on the red-head teacher.

In the beginning, I instantly thought I knew who it was. Then towards the middle, I became conflicted. But my second guess was right all along! I've been binging on LMN movies on SlingTV and this is one of the top few I've watched that's good! Yes, the SL is very similar but I think it has a twist because it keeps you guessing. This reminds me of the "old" Lifetime movie days!!

Am I the only that knows this is a REMAKE of "Baby Monitor: Sound of Fear" with Josie Bisset?? It was a Lifetime movie. The upload may still be on YouTube if you can find it.

This may not be an official remake of that movie but the plot is pretty much the same! I like this modern version with the technology reference.
