Pros: Well written movie, best thriller i've seen in awhile Cons: had a few flakey scenes
I went into this movie as I do in all movies, with an open mind, because if you only go by what a critic or just a friends says. You'll begin to rely only on that opinion and not your own.
Final Destination starts out with Devon Sawa's...

Pros: Highly Suspenseful Cons: Explained in review.
Ok, first off, I have to say that Final Destination is a awesome movie. Very highly suspenseful and action packed. From about the time the movie starts, until the time it ends, it's very fast paced, and exciting.
Plot?

Pros: Suspensefully smashing with screamingly silly subtleness Cons: none
Imagine yourself on an airplane. You feel the shuddering of the jet engines, you feel the heat of the person next to you..all at once you grow weary. Your surroundings suddenly seem eerily claustrophobic, and you feel your palms sweating. Imagine...

Pros: cast, storyline Cons: could have been better
This movie is a very nice and welcomed escape from the stupid stereotypical teen-horror movies like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. This movie is actually good. It's got a great cast, an original storyline, but...oh no...none of the hokey...

Pros: Acting is good. The plot is unreal. Cons: Could never happen.
Final Destination accomplishes to make you think twice about death, and airplanes. This drama staring Devon Sawa(Wild America, Now and then) and Kerr Smith(Dawsons creek) is one of the most thrilling and most well acted films by teens. The teen's in...

Pros: Constant action, awesome plot line Cons: First 15 minutes is rather slow than speed picks up
As the movie begins a group of students are getting ready to travel to France for a school trip. As one student sees the plane go down in his mind he tries to get off the plane. In doing so a group of 7 people end up getting thrown off the plane. As the...

Pros: Great death scenes Cons: a lot of blood and gore
My boyfriend came home with this movie last night saying he read the jacket and it sounded good. I thought, how good can it be? I'd never even seen previews for it before and his taste in movies is a far cry from mine but there wasn't much I could do at...

Pros: Plot, Acting, Visuals, Creepy and daring plot. Cons: A bit unrealistic
When i first saw this preview i thought that this movie would be just another horror movie, not very good. But boy was i wrong this movie was amazing. The plot, development, acting and visuals were very well done and very cool. The plot was so well...

Pros: Stiffler plays a good dork Cons: No plot developement whatsoever
Talk about a shaky story line. Some kids get on a plane to go to France for a school trip. One falls asleep before takeoff and has a premonition that the plane is going to blow up. He freaks out and some of the students and a teacher get kicked off of...

Pros: keeps your attention, catches you off guard, always keeps you guessing Cons: None!!!!
At first I thought this movie might be just another "Scream" movie. But once I got into the theatre and the movie started, I knew I was wrong. The first couple of scenes are all of Alex and his fears of getting on the plane to go to Paris....

Pros: Really scary. Absorbing. More story than most slasher films. Cons: A little much for the queasy or easily terrified
Final Destination was largely overlooked at the first run box office, and is now making the rounds at the off price theaters.
The majority of critics bashed this film, those who liked it were enthused about it. There seems to be no middle...

Pros: Legitimate thrills and chills Cons: Questionable storyline, bad acting, and poor dialogue.
Okay, so I wasn't expecting a Shakespearian performance nor was I contemplating being sucked-in to a re-packaged "Scream" or "...Last Summer" type of flick.
However, this film has tossed nothing new into the ring except for the...

Pros: Excellent special effects Cons: slightly predictable ending
My husband and I greatly enjoyed this film on video over the weekend. It was a nice counterpoint to the film we watched first, ONE-EYED JACK, with that hunk, Marlon Brando (yeah, I know -- made in '61). What was interesting to us was the juxtaposition...

Pros: Kept me on my feet Cons: John Denver
I knew that the movie was suppose to have a horror feel when I saw the trailer, but...... this movie was unreal! I could not believe half of the stuff that happened. I believe in not ruining movies, so I am not going to give much away.

Pros: Scary, suspenseful, basic good plot idea Cons: Should have made the "accidents" more accidental
I found this movie to be especially terrifying, the concept of inescapable destiny, the concept that Death has more power than any will the human being can summon up.
I have delved into the human psyche from many angles, the religious, the...
