Review of The Final Destination

Death saved... the best for last.

Not really. Frankly, out of all the FD films I've seen, I like this film the least. The deaths aren't as fanatical as the previous ones, although I did like the montage of some of the most popular deaths from the previous films. It's also one of the shortest FD films, and one which doesn't have the sinister presence of Tony Todd.
Four friends, Nick (Campo), his girlfriend Lori (VanSanten), Janet (Webb), and hotshot Hunt (Zano), are at a racetrack when Nick gets a vision of a car crash which ends up getting them all killed. In his hysteria, he and his friends, along with a handful of other people, get out of the racetrack and are saved. Or so they thought. After two of the people who supposedly would have died in the accident die in the same order they would have if they had stayed, Nick and his friends make the connection with that of the doomed Flight 180, which occurred years ago. Now, they have to find a way to break the chain before Death finally claims them as his own.
As much as I could see how much they wanted to keep this franchise alive, some of the deaths were.. well, not as sensational as the previous ones. I DID like the idea of having your guts sucked out from under your arse (that was probably my favorite in the film), but the rest... meh. Not crappy as compared to other horror films though. I just hope the people behind this franchise know when to stop, before they tarnish the reputation of the first two FD films.
