  Lame Conceptual Idea x 3
Review created: 09/03/06(updated 09/03/06)
2 of 7 people found this review helpful.

The Final Destination trio of films are born purely of a lame conceptual idea to repeat the same below standard formula time and time again. I envisage American audiences wasting their dollars at the box office to google at this circus slideshow of dismal demises but I shudder to think that more cynical audiences across the pond have helped spawn a further two brain-dead performances with their Euros and Pounds Sterling.

Hollywood rarely conjures up what true fans of the genre consider as a legitimate horror film, especially those who remember the innovative camera techniques and non CGI gore of the 70/80's genre masters. I will spare Final Destination (1st movie) a morsel of praise, it evaded the standard glitzy slasher flick format, awarding it with a grain of originality. This small merit is now dashed against the rocks of interminable repetitiveness. These films are a reminder of how shallow and spoon fed our society has become.

I am an absolute sucker for these type of films. This twist of fate film had me on the edge of my seat nearly the whole way through.
It has some really gruesome jumpy bits in it and the ending made me go and buy final destination 2 as it was that good.
Hope this helps you all decide whether to watch it or not !!

This teen scare flick is a cut above most others. Here, it is not some crazed killer which does away with most of the cast but, rather, the fickle finger of fate that selects the next denizen of the great beyond.

The movie starts off happily enough with a class of high school seniors about to depart for Paris. Once they board the plane, our main man, Alex, cannot quite overcome his fear of flying, as he has a premonition that the plane is going to blow up upon takeoff.

His hysteria is such that he, as well as four other students, is escorted off the plane, accompanied by faculty members, one of whom returns to re-board the plane. No sooner does the plane take off, it blows up in mid air. It seems that fate has snatched these lucky individuals out of death's clutches...or has it?

Their relief, at having escaped being blown up on the plane, turns to terror, as it appears that fate will not have them cheat death. The lengths that these young people go to evade fate, and the steps that fate takes to hunt them down one by one, makes for a crafty and clever thriller. Teens and adults alike will enjoy this flick.

4/5 for this one

It's good to see a movie based on a great idea and produced to such an excellent quality - the realism of the opening flight crash is eerily accurate, you'll find yourself looking around at your fellow passengers for anyone who's having a panic attack !

To be honest, i was never appealed to this film when it first came to the cinemas and i don't know why

But i got this on dvd and once watched there was no going back, what a film i was missing out on.

Very adventurous, superb story line, well written, greatly acted, full of twists, turns...You can see where were going with this

Great film to watch! Always has you thinking and keeps you at the edge of your seat throughout the film! So great, it makes you want to see Final destination 2 & 3 aswell! But this film is a must have at first, as it is only the beggining of the story which makes it more the reason to buy it!

Horror and Clever, two words not usually used closely together when reviewing a horror film. But here it is, a clever horror film, okay so the people behind The X Files are appearently amazingly creative, but what they do here is make you think about your own personal 'what if's?'. The concept is so simple, but also so brilliant... what if you cheat death, answer= death comes looking for you, brilliant. the acting is very good, you'll find yourself caring about the characters, but strangely, you also want the next one to die because (a) the killings/setups are brilliant and (b) you want to figure the next one out for yourself... look out for the signs! Story, acting, effets, stunts, dvd extras... it's all good here. Great fun, get it now, you have no excuse, it also might help you out in the long run... or make you toataly paranoid!!!

I love all the final destination movies but the original is the best. I like all the unexpected jumping out of your seat scenario's. Would not buy it if you have heart problems:-)

This is an excellent film due to the unpredictable deaths. This film is very entertaining due to the tragic deaths and fantastic storyline. Not a great film fo non gore lovers but nothing too gory! A well thought out film with all possible "hiccups" covered. A must see before seeing final destination 2 or 3.
