...same became true of the Final Destination franchise when it began in 2000. When the first Final Destination film was launched, the mould was changed slightly and instead of their being a physical killer, it was death itself which would catch up with people. Each of the three films have started with a key protagonist in the film having a premonition of a disaster which is about to take place and they then in some way change the course of action meaning ...

Advantages: Entertaining enough if somewhat no-brainer horror fare...
Disadvantages: Not as fresh as the first movie, slightly iffy script...

...is still probably not the final 'Final Destination'. The extras on the DVD make this an even more worthy purchase as when you've watched the film a few times, you have more than enough extras to wade through. Suitably - death by extras, perhaps? An idea for 'Final Destination 4' there I should think! If you like the first two 'Final Destination' films, chances are you should enjoy this one. Just don't expect Shakespeare or Oscars! This is an enjoyable ... Read review

Advantages: Fun, Great death sequences, Some good extras
Disadvantages: Can only watch once or twice before getting bored...

Final Destination 1 was released in 2000 recieving brilliant reviews for it's inventiveness and originality. It was about a boy who gets on a plane, has a premonition that it crashes and get's off taking a few students with him. Surprise, surprise, the plane crashes and what follows is a suspensful, clever movie about death returning to take the lives, in the order they would have died on the plane, of each person who got off and ''cheated death''. ...
...Kill Shot: The making of Final Destination 3 which gives a good insight into the movie. The rest is just an extended scene, TV spots and trailer...pointless little things they add to DVD extras to make it look like there's an abundance of them! Yeah well, we won't fall for that kind of nonsense! The anamorphic widescreen 16:9 screen transfer is great with bright colours and a sharp picture and the 5.1 surround sound gives a full, all around you ... Read review

Advantages: Great CGI and lots of gore
Disadvantages: Repetitive, no story, bad acting, not scary

The Final Destination franchise has become synonymous with horror, suspense, and above all, gore. If you're a teenager and you want to spend an hour and a half being jumped out of your seat or covering your eyes in squeamishness as another attractive youngster is disembowelled, then you've come to the right place. And I admit it: I fit into that category. The original film was innovative in that it replaced the character of a killer with death itself, ...
...The second film, cunningly titled Final Destination 2, not only lived up to the original, but accomplished the rare feat of actually improving upon its foundation. With more action, better deaths, and a more complex and thought-provoking plot, it was really quite good. Therefore, going into Final Destination 3, I probably had a little too much hope riding on it. Each of the films begins with a premonition of some kind. A plane explosion, a motorway ... Read review

Advantages: Good Shocks, Well Paced
Disadvantages: Format getting tired

Six years ago Final Destination hit the screen after a spate of horror movies had revived and diminished the genre. But this was something new; it wasn't really a horror film although being billed as one. Instead it was a thriller with horror elements and amazingly it worked incredibly well. The thing about Final Destination was that its set pieces were brilliantly orchestrated. They would set the audience up for a fall yet not pull out the sucker ...
...The premise of the Final Destination movies is that there is a group of characters that manage to cheat death by avoiding a major accident. But death has a design for everyone and soon death is catching up to each and every one of them. The first film had a plane crash as it's focal point, the second - a large traffic accident. This time our characters cheat death by getting off a roller coaster before it derails and sends it's thrill seekers to ... Read review
