Mo of da same

Rating: 5/10 (7 December 2004)

Death has a list. And if you're on the list, you're going to die in the order in which you appear on the list. Of course, if someone doesn't die on schedule that creates a ripple in death's plan and if a child is born to a mother who was scheduled to die then someone on the list may be allowed to live...I think. Anyhoo, that's probably all wrong but you're not going to care about the plot anyway as you watch this sequel to "Final Destination 1" in which a coed hooks up with a cop and a throwback from the original flick to thwart death's master plan. Though the film lacks in cohesion and sensibility, it is chock full of cause-effect chain reactions which result in a stuntfest and grisly actions sequences throughout. Probably a tad less than the original (which isn't bad for a sequel), FD2 is a worthwhile watch for anyone into gory horror action dramas made with the old teen and young adult crowd in mind. (C+)
