The year is 2455. The Place is Old Earth. Once the shimmering blue jewel of the galaxy, Old Earth is now a contaminated planet abandoned for centuries. Yet humans have returned to the deadly place that they once fled. Not to live, but to research the ancient rusting artifacts of the bygone civilizations that caused this environmental disaster. And little does the most recent landing party of intrepid young explorers realize the fate that awaits them.

Critics Consensus

Jason goes to the future, but the story is still stuck in the past.

By now, despite the nine years since the last Friday the 13th sequel, Jason and his hockey mask are as predictable a franchise as McDonald's. Moviegoers know what they are going to get.

Jason X conjures up more giggles than scares, assuming you make it through the first 15 minutes.

As far as the Friday series goes, this is more fun than anyone had any right to imagine.

2/5

Abandons any sense of seriousness, which makes it a slight improvement on what came before it, though it comes across as more of a parody than anything else.

3/5

Ten movies in, the franchise finally and mercifully becomes self-aware. Despite the weak plot and absence of a compelling final girl, the film’s sense of humor keeps the ship on course in one of the franchise’s more entertaining outings.

It's not a good movie. Literally no one expects Jason X -- the 10th sequel in the Friday the 13th series -- to be good.

Greetings from Lithuania. "Jason X" (2001) is a bad film, no matter how you watch it. It doesn't work as a parody, as a horror movie, as a science fiction nor really a slasher - it just does not work. At running time 1 h 26 min i was bored out of my mind. To its defense, this isn't the worst one in the series - for me bottom of the barrel was No. 8. To its not defense - there are great example in Saw X how can tenth part in a series of horror slasher can work - you just need to put more effort into it. Overall, "Jason X" is a bad film in every way, but not the worst ever. That is the best i can say about it.

This movie is horribly put together, terribly written, and the only semi-worthwhile performance in the whole abysmal movie was turned in my Kane Hodder. I have watched this movie twice in my life and that is 3 hours and 4 mins of my life I will never get back

An enjoyable, silly sci Fi horror hybrid that brings Jason into space. It's fun. There are some really good practical effects. A popcorn movie. Pure escapism.

The movie is very fun, it has good scenes, good deaths, a good Jason, but in terms of development and story it is very bad. 4,5/10
