Reflecting on nude scenes of the ‘80s entries...there was a lot less silicone back then.The two in Freddy Vs. Jason,while lovely,look like extras from nip/tuck.

Reviews for Freddy vs. Jason
Wittier than your average horror movie, smarter than your average horror movie, and much stranger than your average horror movie.
08/14/03
The fight is really cool when it finally comes, but it takes an hour and change to get through the undercards.
08/14/03
The best bits do eventually overshadow the interminable slow spots, and I'd certainly never be one to dissuade the faithful from seeing these two immortals duke it out on the big screen.
08/14/03
Though not exactly John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, star-power marquee teaming is about all Freddy vs. Jason has.
08/14/03
Just a slam-bang succession of gross-out mutilations, played for giggles.
08/14/03
This grunge match is far more horrible than horrifying.
08/14/03
Top CriticOnce the novelty wears off, the latest movie feels just like every other -- an unrepentant gorefest with little personality or flavor.
08/14/03
It's more marketing concept than aesthetic, and problems inherent in both series -- like the fact the villains are indestructible -- are only multiplied.
08/14/03
Top CriticA tediously ghastly genre pic.
08/14/03
Fans of the two series will laugh, because the genre is so squarely skewered. Others will wonder what the big deal is, having seen King Kong vs. Godzilla, Mothra vs. Rodan and any number of sitcom weddings.
08/14/03
Pitting the bad guys against each other merely recycles all the shtick we've seen before.
08/14/03
It is downright depressing to think about all that vigorous cinematic artistry and expertise aimed so low.
08/14/03
Top CriticDoes a decent job of making like the 1980s never ended.
08/14/03
There are far less lively ways to spend a night at the movies.
08/14/03
A goofy but occasionally fun novelty that's more enjoyable than it has any right to be.
08/14/03
While the filmmakers send up the genre's cliches and expected audience empathy with the villains, it still feels like the ludicrous dialogue and one-dimensional characterizations were written by teenagers.
08/14/03
Freddy vs. Jason succeeds as a guilty pleasure.
08/14/03
A horror fan's wet bloodfest with an outrageous story line and plenty of laughs.
08/14/03
Other than Freddy, there are no memorable performances, just interchangeable busty, pouty-lipped girls and drunk high school guys who scream and run and get gutted like fish.
