Summary: Strange Thriller with Slasher Setup, but in a good way
Review: Final Destination was mainly aimed for the teen audience. Some people may think it's a psychological thriller at one time, and a slasher thriller at another. Besides the theme mixup, Final Destination was still enjoyable, at least more enjoyable than other horror flicks. The plot involves a teen who visions a plane crashing - and it actually crashes. Those who were removed from the plane, including him (Alex), were left frightened and confused. The rest of the story involes how they "cheated death" by getting off the plane and not dying there where they were supposed to, and then being picked off by some supernatural source to make sure they die like they were supposed to. So, Alex finds out "who's next" and it's a race against evil for survival. There are the usual humorous one-liners, and the usual romantic sub-plot, but otherwise, this horror flick does involve suspense, entertainment, and fun. A great DVD.

Summary: A very good and tense movie!
Review: You can tell right away that Final Destination is a dead teenager movie. Nothing wrong with that, but most nowadays are turning out to be flops. But Final Destination is a real breath of fresh air. Instead of your typical guy-in-mask slasher, Final Destination turns out to be very creative and interesting. In fact, this is one of my favorite horror films of all time!The opening credits and musical score set a perfect mood for the film, and soon to follow is the best and scariest plane crash scene ever filmed in my opinion. From there on, a group of teens and one adult who left the plane learn that they can't cheat death. Death comes back for them all in a series of deadly accidents. Not only is this a very interesting plot to follow, it is executed quite well. Since everyone is supposed to know this when seeing the movie, it keeps a certain amount of tension that keeps you on the edge of your seat saying "oh god here it comes....," even if you don't know when death is coming. It usually hits you by surprise with is elaborate Rube Goldberg death scenes. I really love this film. The death plot keeps on twisting and becoming more complex as Alex (the main character) makes more discoveries about "death's plan." This doesn't have to be just a teen movie - it can appeal to adults as well as science fiction buffs with its awesome and creative plot.

Summary: A step above...
Review: Final Destination came out of nowhere last year to turn out to be a surprise box office hit for New Line Cinema and with good reason. After Scream revitalized the horror genre film companies have thrown tired ideas and sequels upon sequels into the market trying to soak up consumer cash. Final Destination came out with a fresh idea, inventive death sequences, and at just the right time to continue to perform well week after week at the box office. New Line is known for doing great dvd presentations and this is no exception to that rule. You get a very nicely done 5.1 surround sound mix, to accompany the anamorphic widescreen video that is clear of artifacts and looks like it was made from a pristine print. In addition to great audio and video, you are also treated to a good selection of extras. A commentary is included with the director, as well as some documentaries. One is about psychics and is honestly somewhat of a sleeper. The second is a documentary about the test screening process and how it effects the final cut of a film and is one of the best extras I have seen on a dvd in a long time. In addition to that you get a trailer, 3 cut scenes including an alternate ending, and a game of sorts that can predict your date of death. All in all it's a very solid dvd and a worthy purchase.

Summary: A GOOD JOKE
Review: This movie is just a big joke, but a good one indeed ! The cast is not so bad ( Shawa is betten than in the mean "IDDLE HANDS ") . Why worry about Freddy Kruerger, Jason or Michael Mayers, when the worst enemy of all, Death Herself, is coming after the teenagers ? It's a good premise. Unfortunately, the ending was absurdly conceived to let the doors open for a probable sequel ...

Summary: Hip and entertaining
Review: Final Destination Score: 73/100 Final Destination has mixed reviews and a pretty much un-known cast. It didn't really look all that interesting until the world got told that it was simply the most enjoyable teen horror movie since Scream. Well, even though Final Destination was a little bit off those standards, it remains a highly praised piece of horror that has a few flashes of ingeniously put-together deaths. Alex (Devon Sawa) and a group of high school students take a flight to Paris for a French class trip. Before they set off, Alex has a premonition of the plane bursting into flames minutes after take off. He tells everyone to get off the ill-fated aircraft. Moments later in the departure lounge the student see the plane explode before their very eyes. Now the FBI thinks that Alex had something to do with it and follows his every move. His friends start to believe he had something to do with it also and slowly fade out of his life. But now, each one of his friends is mysteriously being killed by something that appears to the Grim Reaper. Alex starts to believe that fate is starting to taking it's toll. It's a bizarre and unrealistic film, and the poor chase finale doesn't help it. but Final Destination is so inventive, scary and funny that you can't help but be enthralled. We haven't seen such creative deaths as this since God knows how long, and from the first minute, James Wong uses so many cool and nifty tricks that the film becomes unbearably imaginative. The cast are repeatedly watchable; it's only Dawson's Creek's Kerr Smith that is in a seriously miscast role, he overblows his character so stupidly that you'll laugh. Otherwise, this is a hip and trendy new kind of thriller that will please all audiences willing to have a good time. Finally, a horror film that can be recommended to teens and adults alike.

Summary: Teens, Horror, Gore,
Review: This is yet another in the long line of teen horror films spawned by Scream. This film has a sort of supernatural twist to make it stand out. Death is an essence is the theme, the essence you can't escape. This is just antother formulaic teen horror flick packed with teens in fashion mode, with a few bloody wrecks along the way. What I can't tell is, is this film using its stupidity of the supernatural undertones as a joke the same way Scream flicks use thier overt stupidity, or is it really meant to be taken seriously. Either way you should really skip this one.

Summary: imaginative thriller that overdoses on special effects
Review: "Final Destination" is a fairly creepy, moderately entertaining little horror film dedicated to the proposition that, although one may not be able to exactly "cheat" death, one may be able to beat it on its own terms fair and square - provided one can figure out the rules that is. The movie begins as a group of forty high school students and three of their teachers board a plane departing from JFK on a field trip to Paris. Immediately before takeoff, one student receives a premonition that the plane will explode moments after becoming airborne, a vision that manages to get himself and several other passengers safely off before the inevitable occurs. But as Alex and his fellow survivors soon discover, Death is not to be avoided quite so easily, as each becomes the target of a systematic plan of elimination. If the details of the initial premise sound familiar, it is probably because they match almost perfectly those surrounding the downing of Flight 103 back in 1996. Waving aside questions of taste and propriety - is it really right to use the details of a real life tragedy as fodder for a silly little horror flick? - let us concede that "Final Destination" taps into some pretty basic fears about the uncertain, random and arbitrary nature of Death. The idea itself is enough to make us all stop and ponder the truth of our mortality and the truly tenuous thread by which we daily cling to this thing we call life. But like so many horror films in the modern era, the premise is better than the execution. The various deaths depicted herein become so choreographed and preposterous in their details that they actually end up diluting some of their own ability to disturb and terrify. Indeed, the more elaborate and high tech the death scenes become, the less creepy they seem. We become bemused and detached when we should be cringing and empathetic. Death simply has to work too hard in some of these scenes and the strain shows. Thus, for all its originality of premise, the film, by making Death seem like nothing more disturbing than a conventional special effects showoff, robs Man's greatest enemy of his awe-inspiring and overwhelming power and sting!

Summary: Pretty Good Movie
Review: Well, if I could have I really would have given this movie 2 and a half stars but I scaled it higher instead of lower.....the first 20 minutes of the movie are the best....the middle seems a little to contrived and forced and the ending is nothing to write home about...not worth buying but ok to rent.
