Interesting idea that falls short

Rating: 5/10 (28 June 2002)

It's an interesting idea to create a movie about a bunch of people who escape death and destiny keeps coming after them, trying to kill them. A hell of a lot more original than most thrillers/horror movies now days right. Final Destination takes that idea and falls short because of it's stupidity. There many plot holes and the script is poor at best. What's just as bad is most of the characters are just bone heads. On the positive side there are some dramatic scenes that are exciting and original that leave you somewhat satisfied after the fact. However, those can't quite make up for it's faults. Hard core horror movie fans, which I'm not, will probably apreciate this film more than I did, given the fact it's well above the average of today's horror flicks. I give it a 5 out of 10.
