Would have been better if it weren't for the boom mic..

Rating: 7/10 (25 March 2003)

Final Destination 2 was in fact better then the previous. More blood, thicker plot, and no cheap running gimmick. They explained what happened to the 3 survivors of the first movie (when it went to black leaving everyone wondering).
The main fault with the movie was in the editing. In no less than 4 scenes, the boom microphone is clearly visable. In 2 scenes, it's just poking down into the top of the frame. In one, it came down far enough to ruin what would have been a great scene. In the 4th, the mic was at nose level with the actors. Needless to say, there's probaly a cameraman, mic operator, and editor who'll never work in Hollywood again.
It'll be interesting to see if it is removed when it is put to video!
