Reviewed January 7, 2017<\/p>\n

Grade: B<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Final Destination (2009) is a fun, entertaining film, and exactly what one might expect from a film of this nature, of the horror genre, and by this time the fourth in the series.<\/p>\n

The 3-D effects are a nice and needed addition to the franchise as a way of keeping it modern and fresh.<\/p>\n

The film has the expected additives- an attractive cast, mediocre acting, and ridiculous situations, which inevitably lead to the fated kills- in typical grisly fashion.<\/p>\n

As audiences of the Final Destination films know, characters cannot tempt fate, and there is a specific order to the deaths. The only aspect that sets The Final Destination apart from its predecessors is the 3-D effects.<\/p>\n

The story is reminiscent of the original version of Final Destination, made in 2000, only instead of an airport, the action begins at a raceway, where the main character of the film, Nick O’Bannon, has a premonition of a grisly accident at the racetrack.<\/p>\n

After he saves some folks from their deaths, they believe they have “cheated” “death”, but before long, fate has other plans for them.<\/p>\n

Some fun kills include decapitation by a flying tire, a sharp rock emitted from a lawnmower, a crushing tub, and a speeding ambulance.<\/p>\n

The novel concept of the film, originally fresh and unique, has become to be expected and rather redundant. The fun part is the creative kills.<\/p>\n

The film is the perfect movie to sit back, relax, have fun, see some interesting deaths, and be entertained by.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
