0/5
"Each scene wreaks of routine; the film never manages to generate a single threat of suspense."  NutzWorld  Blake French

1/4
"Four hundred years into the future, human beings can conquer new planets and are still dumb enough to split up when a psycho killer is after them."  Kansas City Star  Dan Lybarger

1/4
"The ideas that Jason X conveys are almost too familiar to even deserve a writing credit..."  Cinemaphile.org  David Keyes

2/4
"...for what it is and what it sets out to do, it works."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

1.5/4
"In the annals of the Friday the 13th series, Jason X is one of the weaker entries."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

2/4
"Jason X is positively anti-Darwinian: nine sequels and 400 years later, the teens are none the wiser and Jason still kills on auto-pilot."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

C
"You have to wonder what the point is anymore."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

1/5
"Isaac brings back the slaughtering cad under new circumstances although the results remain old...maybe he'll cut his own miserable hockey-masked head off therefore sparing us the inevitable development of Jason XI: The Slaying Stupidity Continues!."  Movie Eye  Frank Ochieng

F
"Deserving of immediate X-cision and X-termination, and its makers forced to to perform some act of X-piation for it."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

1/4
"Murder and mayhem of this sort quickly becomes monotonous."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

1.5/4
"truly a last-gasp effort"  Q Network Film Desk  James Kendrick

"The original films were cheap and nasty, a bit like a venereal disease I suppose."  Sci-Fi Movie Page  James O'Ehley

5/10
"Although trying to balance self-referential humor and a normal ol' slasher plot seemed like a decent endeavor, the result doesn't fully satisfy either the die-hard Jason fans or those who can take a good joke."  Window to the Movies  Jeffrey Chen

1/10
"Oh, it will have you screaming all right, but not for the desired reasons."  Screen It!  Jim Judy

4/10
"..little action, almost no suspense or believable tension, one-dimensional characters up the wazoo and sets that can only be described as sci-fi generic."  JoBlo's Movie Emporium  JoBlo

3/10
"I'm not sure why anyone that isn't a diehard fan of the series would bother wasting their time with X. You'd be just as well off renting one of the older titles, because they're all pretty much the same movie."  Planet Sick-Boy  Jon Popick

1.5/4
"The kills are fun for audiences and special effects creators alike, as are many lines, but it's still the same old thing redressed to happen someplace else."  MovieCrypt.com  Kevin A. Ranson

1/5
"This film is painfully predictable."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

1.5/4
"Well, Jason’s gone to Manhattan and Hell, I guess a space station in the year 2455 can be crossed off the list of ideas for the inevitable future sequels (hey, don’t shoot the messenger)."  Mark Reviews Movies  Mark Dujsik

2/5
"Better than I thought it would be [but] it's still a big ball of garbage."  Goatdog's Movies  Michael W. Phillips, Jr.

1/5
"Jason X não consegue sequer funcionar como auto-paródia."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

4/5
"Exuberantly crappy bad fun."  eFilmCritic.com  Rob Gonsalves

"An underdog classic of camp."  Projection Booth  Rob Humanick

3/5
"Considerably more entertaining than most of what passes for a 'mindless horror flick' these days."  eFilmCritic.com  Scott Weinberg

1/5
"The dialogue's so putrid you can smell it, the cast is feeble and the generic sets and effects elicit more laughs than screams."  Filmcritic.com  Sean O'Connell

2.5/4
"Jason follows the ol' tradition of monsters going into space."  sbs.is  Stefan Birgir Stefansson

1/10
"Without the dark spookiness of Crystal Lake Camp, the horror concept completely loses its creepy menace."  www.susangranger.com  Susan Granger

1/10
"This film manages the extraordinary, almost mythological feat of surpassing all that came before it to stand proud as the worst of all ten Friday the 13th movies."  Antagony & Ecstasy  Tim Brayton

1/4
"Plays like one of those conversations that Comic Book Guy on "The Simpsons" has."  Film Freak Central  Walter Chaw
