Not that scary

Rating: Null/10 (22 January 2001)

"Final Destination" is fast-paced and definitely not boring, but these are the best comments I can make about the picture. I didn't think it was scary because I didn't care about the characters. Yes, it was shocking at times, thanks to decent special effects, but the plot feels manufactured to the point that each new accident began to seem more humorous than tragic. The ending is artificial. It's hard to say anything about the acting because the scripting is so one-dimensional. All in all, I'd say that the young cast did about as well as they could with the material they were given.
