A different way of telling a story

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

When a franchise like 'Final Destination' takes an idea and utilises the same narrative structure throughout all of the sequels, you can't help but feel cheated by Death himself. However, you know what they all say *cue London accent* "if it ain't broke, don't fix it...init". This third instalment is more of the same. A group of friends cheat death from a freak accident involving a rollercoaster, they each slowly die in other accidents in the sequential order they would've died if they stayed on the ride. If you've seen its predecessors then you know exactly what you are getting into. Non-existent character development, a predictable plot and a series of absolute convenient accidents that are timed so precisely that you just have to admire the creativity involved. These accidents rely on so many components falling into place, whether it be a shelf locking two temperature rising sun beds together or an unmanned truck rolling down a hill and accurately slotting into a drive-thru, that actually they no longer become surprising. Unlike the first film, they aren't unexpected all. Death has clearly meticulously planned these gruesome scenes for our pleasure, so I thank him for that. Aside from that, this film has no substance whatsoever. The characters theorise the plot's structure before the first freak accident as they try to warn others that they are next in line, leaving no excitement or thrills to be had. At the narrative's core, it becomes predictably boring. That's certainly not Wong's fault who does showcase some excellent directing techn...wait, he wrote this too? Well, in that case it is his fault. The franchise's structure has now run its course. Inventive but lacking in substance and thrills. If only the producers had a premonition in 2009, we wouldn't have had even worse sequels. Oh, before I forget, what I will say is that I will never ever ever go on a sun bed. That scene scarred me for life when I was younger...or should I say, it was burnt into my mind...

I must say this is better than I originally thought! I thought this is gonna be more cliché. On the other hand, the string of events were played out well and in a very Final Destination feel. You really have to appreciate the film for what it is bec. if you'll think it's just plain RIDICULOUS or IMPOSSIBLE, it's not Final Destination! Mary Winstead (Wendy) is also pretty!! I like her eyes and face! I just gotta point that out bec. I find her attractive even tho I'm a girl.. XD must be just admiring but nothing else!! XD The acting is also believable!! NOT THE BEST but way better than other actors! I was actually observing Wendy and Kevin in this movie and the emotions and the FEEL was there! Not the best but believable.. I also noticed the orchestra playing in the background giving it like a classical feel.. I imagine that old movies also have unreal or very dramatic or sudden play of events like in this film.. I think it also got an inspiration from the oldies.. or did it?? Anyway, it was a good movie! Netflix (or our net/my laptop) kept on lagging so I had to pause a lot of times also bec. of pixelated moments but I still enjoyed it and got myself into the movie thoroughly! Not the best movie, but for how it's supposed to work out.. it did a very good job! It's not at all that predictable like how I imagined it to be! :) Also, I like some of the comedic scenes like how that perv was saying at Ashley and the other popular girl's funeral that he was the cause of their death coz of the pressure of looking good! Some of the lines of the characters about to die were a little cheesy and repetitive but I appreciate the part where Ian Mckinley was talking about Law of Newton and such.. Maybe I have yet to expand my movie list but I appreciated this more!

Final Destination 3 is the only final destination movie I have seen. I caught it on Cinemax late last night and thought it might be fun. This film was fun and pretty entertaining to watch. The acting was actually pretty good here, I wasn't expecting a whole heck of a lot from the actors. It is a little bit predictable, but it was still entertaining nonetheless. Amanda Crew was very impressive, i really loved her in the role. And Ryan merriman was impressive as well, I really loved the casting in this movie, I usually am not a humongous fan of horror film castings, but this movie had great actors in it. The visual effects were pretty well done. I didn't like a couple of the deaths and how graphic they were, didn't need to see some of that. I also didn't care to see the blonde girls's boobs in the tanning bed, unnecessary. But the script and dialogue was well written I thought. And it was entertaining, I had a pretty good time. I wasn't a huge fan of how the film ended though. 7/10.

The Roller Coaster Opening is a Disappointment considering, for one, it's a Roller Coaster, and two, the opening Highway Scene in the Second Movie was so Good. There is one Death Scene that is so Reminiscent of a similar Scene in the Second Movie that it comes off as Horribly Ho-Hum. Finally, the Ending is very very Unworthy of the Franchise cleverness and leaves the Movie with a Credit Roll from an Ending that was Decidedly Dull.Other than those Three Letdowns this is another Guilty Pleasure for Blood-Lusters and is a Numbered Franchise Cash-In that is by the Numbers. The Cliché is "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Most Bottom Line Series Films follow that bit of Advice in Their Popular Popcorn Movies. So here We Go again.It is Surprising and a Treat when once in a while Audiences are Offered a New Twist with Their candy corn. But all of You Final Destination Fans have to Wait For Number Four to see If that happens. because although this was Made by James Wong and Glenn Morgan that were Behind the Original, there Simply is Nothing Original here.
