Badly Executed

Rating: 3/10 (18 March 2013)

I did not know there were sequels to this dire tragedy of a movie until I searched for it and they came up on auto complete.
The fact that sequels to this exist and sold further reduces my faith in human kind and reinforces my own belief that I am not part of this race and am proud to say that.
The premise of this movie was good! It had a philosophical point, you can't cheat death... but it was so badly executed I couldn't bare to watch it to the end.
In short, the premise was good, the plot was good, the actors acted the parts they had been given with skill. The direction, the photography were all top notch... but whoever wrote this script should be subjected to some kind of non fatal but painful and permanently disfiguring acid-genital torture.
Recently I watched "Cast Away" with Tom Hanks, now its not the best movie I've ever seen but it made some points without having to say them and in its own simple way moved me.
"Final destination" however seems to either, aim at an audience that cannot be moved and need everything explaining to them (perhaps the dead, stroke victims, or the population of Norfolk), or, more likely, was written by an heartless UN-imaginative meeting of corporate types.
The premise and plot of this movie could have made a wonderful experience if not executed (and I mean that in both ways, conducted by and killed by) utter sh!t heads.
