Lame Lame Lame...! WARNING SPOILERS!!

Rating: Null/10 (19 November 2004)

Final Destination 2 follows on from the first film - where yet another group of teenagers avoid "Death's plan" by avoiding a fatal road accident. Yet again - they get picked off one by one in even more gruesome horrific style.
I was a semi-fan of the first - it was original, fresh, sometimes shocking or scary... but it suffered from being too smart. Its conclusion was a bit of a let down (doesn't really answer how you avoid inevitability). You would think that the sequel would try and remedy this...!
Yes - the death scenes are just as outrageous as the first... but I found this movie to be quite annoying and uninteresting. All the characters were fairly bland - so you didn't care if they horribly die. The couple of survivors at the end of the film were the most boring characters (I was so disappointed they didn't get decapitated or something!). I also thought that Ali Larter's death was a bit cheap (I hate sequels that give characters from earlier films cheap deaths!).
Again - the film doesn't deal with the ending (or how to beat Death) satisfactory. It was all pretty predictable and if you didn't see the twist ending happening a mile away - you probably need to go back to school.
This movie was lame lame lame! Don't bother.
