Final Destination: ***1/2

Rating: Null/10 (15 September 2000)

Final Destination is a movie with plot, depth, and it's original. The plot is original. Never before has a "Dead Teenager Movie" (as Roger Ebert calls them) had a better plot. Scream was good. But the plot was lacking. (Although I did award it ***1/2 stars) Anyway, not to drift from the topic. The acting was good. And the deaths were original (I know that doesn't sound too good but they were). And [the movie] keeps you on edge. Who will die next? Alex? Clear? How will they die? Knife? Decapitation? It's a great film. I would like to see more of Ali Larter (who starred in House on Haunted Hill) and, yes, even Devon Sawa, whose acting career is more than girls obsessing over his looks. Final Destination straps you in and doesn't let go until the final scene. ***1/2
