Good one!

Rating: 7/10 (28 May 2000)

A very enjoyable horror flick - well worth the price of admission. Comparisons with the Scream series aren't really appropriate though, as although there are a few moments of black humour in Final Destination, the emphasis is on mystery and suspense. I think the film's strongest point is that it really never lets on exactly where it's going, even at the end. (OK, that could be said of a lot of films, but in Final's case, it's intentional!) It kept me on the edge of my seat more for this reason than for any shock/horror value (although there are a few gory moments, but these don't dominate the film). Probably the most lasting effect the film will have on you is to make you very nervous about getting out of bed in the morning...
