Diagonaldi Very well executed
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
NikTesla I cannot understand how people thought this an even halfway decent movie. All the deaths were the most ridiculous, implausible sequences imaginable. I was expecting to see that this travesty was crapped out by The Asylum. I guess it was just written, produced, directed by and special effects done by graduates from The Asylum instead.The "special effects" looked like something out of the 90s, the acting was so wooden it could keep the world's entire paper supplies going for the next decade, the "action" sequences were laughable. It was about as suspenseful as watching a dead blade of grass growing.Don't bother watching it.
KissEnglishPasto ........................................................from Pasto,Colombia...Via: L.A. CA., CAKI, COLOMBIA....and ORLANDO, FL This is a Review of the 3-D VERSION, from the GUT! (My "Id" was in Suspended Animation while viewing this...As was the rest of my brain!) Recently, It occurred to me that I hadn't seen a 3-D movie in a long time! (NOT Counting the SHREK shorts at Universal!) Suddenly, I had a tremendous urge to see the 3-D version, A.S.A.P.! Well, I just saw it hours ago! This Movie and my opinion of it can easily be encapsulated in just a few words: "3-D GLASSES ON: 7*"/ 3-D GLASSES OFF: "4*!" That's the whole Enchilada! Decided to see "The FINAL" with a very specific purpose in mind: To enjoy the hell out of the 3-D gimmick aspect! And solely based on that single criterion, it was most satisfying indeed! As entertained as I was with the 3-D images, I'd like to add some observations: Would NEVER consider seeing it again, with or without glasses! Do not think the urge to see another 3-D movie will ever grab me again, unless convinced that the film had stand alone merit.The recent "REAL 3-D" process, incidentally, is FAR superior to the old RED/GREEN 3-D glasses we've known for decades! No headaches! No blurry vision during the film! Much crisper and cleaner image! " FINAL" hardly has anything else positive going for it..."Same Old-Same Old" in just about every area you could mention, except for everything related to visual & 3-D department.4*.....ENJOY/DISFRUTELA! (If that's Possible!)Any comments, questions or observations, in English o en Español, are most welcome!
Leofwine_draca The trend for modern 3D horror flicks continues with THE FINAL DESTINATION, the fourth in the series and the first to use 3D. I'd previously experienced 3D in the cinema with the MY BLOODY VALENTINE remake, so I had some idea what to expect: not much of a story or acting, but lots of grisly, eye-popping gore effects and stuff flying out of the screen. On the strength of that, THE FINAL DESTINATION delivers – in spades.This one's really a different beast from those which have come before. The set-up is the same, the scenarios very familiar by now, so the filmmakers decide to just go ahead and have some fun with the premise (you get the idea when you see the credits, which pay homage to all of the deaths in the previous films). The opening accident sequence is very well done, a lot better than the roller-coaster accident in the last film, and up there with the road accident in the second instalment, which Ellis also directed.However, the characters are even sketchier than before, with barely anyone getting more of a look-in. Ironically, the characters are two-dimensional even if the special effects are 3D. Bobby Campo is a fairly likable protagonist – probably my favourite of the series, in fact – but the filmmakers chose to focus on the deaths this time around, meaning there are far more extended death sequences and less time to develop the supporting cast. Mykelti Williamson stands out as the security guard helping to figure out what's going on, but he's the only one.Which leads me to the special effects: this film is all about them. Just as was the case with VALENTINE, there's absolutely no reason to watch this in 2D: the whole point of the film lies in the 3D effects. And they're excellent. Stuff seems to be constantly flying out of the screen – ashes, fire, nails, tyres, poles, body parts, you name it – and I was often blinking and ducking as the film successfully fooled my eyes into thinking it was all real. The death sequences are more elaborate than before, and also more suspenseful. There's a stand-out elevator scene, a good self-referencing bit within a 3D cinema, and a tricky interlude in a hairdresser's. The filmmakers have also upped the gore quotient big time, to the levels seen in the SAW sequels: there are guts, intestines, livers, eyeballs, and all manner of squished special effects along with buckets of blood being splashed across the screen. Tame this ain't: it's the goriest of the franchise yet and not for lily-livered viewers. In any case, you know what you're getting with this movie: lots of effects, lots of gross-outs, nothing much else.
LeonLouisRicci It's Undeniable that the Formula that made this Franchise so Special at first, that Never Varied from Film to Film, has Lost its Luster and is now rather Boring. The Premonitions and Death's Design and all of that have seen Better Days and is now Nothing More than the Thread that Binds the Movies Together.Its the Rube Goldberg Death Mechanisms that can still Entertain. That's a Difference between "Torture Porn" and this Series. The Final Destination Films are Meant to Entertain as Opposed to say, the "Saw" Franchise. What they're Meant to do is Not Pleasant to Contemplate. Simply Put, the "FD" Series is Fun and the "Saw" Series is Sick.This Movie has a neat Opening and Closing Credits Scheme, and the Movie Clips along with the Least bit of Contemplation about Fate and Death. A bit Better than the Third Entry if one was to Quibble about such Things, this one has some Nifty Set-Ups and is another Fine, Bloody Fluff Film for Fans of the Franchise.Note...If you are keeping score...more nudity, more gore, and more deaths and the first one in 3-D.
