Summary: Better then the first!
Review: I hadnt even heard of FD when i saw the trailer for Final Destination 2. And when it finally came out, it instantly became one of my favorite horror/suspance flicks of all time!!!!!

The best thing about this movie is the deaths. Instead of one of those cheesy slasher films were they cut away and show a shadow and the blood splatter on the wall... this movie shows you the killing 100%!!!!!! and its absolutly the coolest in that feild so far!!!! completly amazing some of the things! Instead of waiting to see WHO dies next, your waiting to see HOW they die which is a great refreshing thing to do and to finally show some great death scenes!

I saw part 2 before i had seen part 1, and i know alot recomend part 1 more then 2, but even after watching part 1 later, all i got out of that was a few tiny little plot details, i didnt think part 1 was as good as this great seaqull!!!! which is VERY rare for any seaqull to be better then the original!!!!

And with lots of twists and turns its quite good how just when you think you know exactly whats about to happen, it does... but little things unexpectingly pop in in between that completly caught you off gaurd and is really great!

Seeing the way some of these people die is amazing what they have done with dummys and computer effects. I own the "Ultimate Final Destination" DVD which comes with part 1 & 2. but I dont see it here on Amazon.com? It might only be a regoin 4 DVD. But take my word for it, there both worth owning IMO!

Review: this movie was excellent. though it wasn't very scary, it was extremely gory!!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: So so
Review: Final Destination 1 is MUCH better. The sequel lost the elements of suspense and horror. Fin. Destination 2 is one big gore-fest. The people are killed off one by one in random order with no warning. (The first one had the suspense building shadow and wind)The "visions" that one character experiences spelling doom are neither believable nor scary. This movie is ok but doesn't live up to the first.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: PRETTY GOOD
Review: Tha accident on the freeway at the begining of the movie is spectacular to say the least. The problem is every one involved just readily accept the fact that death is after them with no proof at all. As the body count rises the viewer is thrust into a comglomerate of of visal fortitude as we experience the rif of emotions. worth renting only.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: movie
Review: I saw this because I liked the first one. This one was totally cheesy but it was good also. Great cast. And good special effects. My favorite death scene is the first one when the kid slips on the speghetti and gets impaled. Another scene I also liked was when they showed Clear in her padded jail. What I didn't like what how the Brunette who had all the preminitions knew everything about the past so easily and how things where gonna pan out in the end. I mean no one is that smart! I think the first FD was better but this is a good movie too, you should see it if you like Horror movies.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good but definitly not trilogy material!
Review: Clear rivers was gonna fry in this one for sure, ya all saw that one coming right?, Like the movie case said "you can't cheat death twice! This movie in my opinion was pretty good all in all, but as for that opening scene of total carnage candy!, yea baby! gimme a cavity right? ha-ha, it could have been a little more graphic with a few more people getting lit up like a firecracker, god knows i like to see some thourough destruction just like the rest of us! Even though the scenes where each person getting the ax were pretty cool, i didn't like how they would kill someone off and then cut right to the next scene. They could have extended each scene a little! Really now, how many of us would have liked to have seen them pull that glass plate off that kid after it made a red pancake out of him? Or what about the first one to go, the lottery kid driving the sports car. They could have had him fall over the railing and then get impaled right? But relax gore fans, the movie does not bid farewell without a charbroiled arm on someones plate, bon appetite! Other than all that, i must say that this is a sequel done not too badly. If you're looking for some good suspense and some carnage not for the weak stomached one, then this movie is for you!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Enjoyable
Review: If you like gore, then you'll probably have to give this movie an A+! This movie had it all, suspense, humor, and gore. Though very similar to the first one in its plot (could almost pass as a remake minus the referances to Final Destination 1's characters and their plane crash story) I must say though, I did enjoy this film and I think it is worth a look!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: "Cheap and moronic but graphic."
Review: In terms of gore Final Destination 2 has plenty that will make even the strongest person twitch. First seeing it in theaters with surround sound and great picture, this was one bloody movie and it's not for everyone. Unlike movies that run to the next clip when someone is ready to be killed, Final Destination 2 shows absolutely everything and leaves nothing to the imagination. You don't know graphic until you have seen this film.
Unfortunately, the bad acting is almost as extreme as the gore. When it comes to bad acting Final Destination 2 has a lot. When someone gets killed the actors and actresses have very little emotion on their faces, they don't act like someone who has seen a person die tragically in front of their eyes and that made me mad. A.J Cook was probably the worst of the bunch. Her acting was in many ways awful and it didn't seem like she was too into the movie. For example, when someone got killed gruesomely in front of her she would turn her head back or cover her eyes and the movie would go to the next scene. She was barely believable as a woman who has experienced horrible things.
As for Ali Larter who plays Clear Rivers out to help, she seems even more disinterested in making this film. It seems like she's thinking to herself "What am I doing here again?" The fact that she was included in Final Destination 2 was ridiculous and overall pointless.
The other members of the cast didn't do such a good job at acting either.
The storyline was dreadful. The writers tried too hard to connect both parts together and failed miserably. It seemed like they just threw anything in the plot like a messy stew. The only thing this sequel had going for it was the extreme amount of gore and suspense. Those were the two things keeping everything together but that's not quite strong enough.
When I saw it in theaters it seemed amazing because of all the visual effects but when I bought the DVD I saw how moronic it really was. I don't know why but for some reason when you're with a whole large group of people in a theater movies seems better than they really are. That was definitely the case for Final Destination 2. The DVD features were pretty good and enjoyable and as far as the DVD features go I have very limited complaints.
My advice would be to watch Final Destination instead of its mediocre sequel. The first not only had more suspense and better acting, but a more interesting and surprising storyline that I knew couldn't be topped by the second. If you're looking for a movie with cheap acting and lots of blood than Final Destination 2 is for you.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A guilty pleasure!
Review: Its a matter of life and death when eight strangers narrowly escape a carastrophic freeway accident. only a young girl's premonition saced them all from a grisly end. But now that they have put a rift in death's design, there's going to be a price to pay- and its going to be painful.

Rated R for strong violence/gruesome accidents, language, drug content, and some nudity.
