now this is an awesome slasher film. instead of seeing a guy in a hockey mask like Jason, we have a new killer that no one can escape from no matter what they do, Death itself!
after seeing this movie, i've developed a fear of planes, but this movie grabbed me by the balls! working who's the next target and figuring out how to cheat death multiple times must be hard work.

This movie was the first and best of its kind. As a horror/thriller/suspense fan this left me stunded. It may be just a movie but for the most part death will occur and is unstoppable. Great film

At the time such a fresh new take for the horror genre! LOVED IT & STILL DO! Amazing cast as well! Can't say that for the new one but this movie when it came out was absolutely mind blowing.Like nothing before! Still one of my favorites!

The writer had one hell of a great idea that was made in one of the best movies ever!

When this movie came out the first thing that came to mind after I saw it was it was a breath of fresh air. While I think the second one out does this one this movie definitely laid out the groundwork for the next installments. I did like this movie but really alot of the people that got killed you really didn't care. And some of the kills were a little to laid out like the teacher's imparticular but really I guess thats the point. Its still a good movie and sets up a solid story.
Totally surprising!
Amazing 'coincidencies' made the plot quite beeter.
Wondering how would each death happen, expecting it by the corner, and then beeing amazed anyway, since, it's an original worthy idea.

Final Destination is a modern twist on classic horror. When a group of teenagers cheat death is a horrific accident, death soon comes to haunt them, taking them out one by one. I liked Final Destination. I know, sounds wierd with my rather low rating, but I enjoyed watching it. I think it's because it was something new at the time, and now infact. But, with crummy acting, some predictable deaths, terrible camera work and un - likeable characters makes this movie a bummer. Although, I did like the death scenes. Even though there weren't many.
I absolutely loved this movie!! It had me scared and thrilled at the same time. The acting was better than I would have expected, and the death scenes were gruesome, but not so bad that you didn't want to finish the movie.
The gist of the movie is definately original and I have never seen anything like it. 10 star greatness!!
This movie is one of the best horror movies of the new century. This movie is original, scary and a masterpiece!!! The acting is brilliant and believable and the deaths take you by surprise and actually make you scared...This movie is really intense especially when Alex, Claire, Carter and, Billy are in the car and it's stuck on the train tracks and they are trying to get out...this movie is great!! This movie also makes you think about how you could die as well...it makes you think anything you do could cause your death...after I watched this movie I found myself being more careful about anything I did...
I hate to say it, but this movie didn't hold the test of time. I just watched it again last night. At first, I was enjoying it, laughing at the jokes, and then for some unkown reason, it started to bore me. I've only seen the film 4 times, but now I think it's going into the "no longer watchable" pile.
Original. The film is rellay original and fresh. The concept is really intriguing and what makes the film even better is that it has some pretty cool deaths. Featuring a cast that isn't well known, the film really delivers, and is very good at making you squirm. The films dark esscence lurks into manupulating your mind into getting frightened, which makes the whole experience alot better. Somewhat predictable in ways of who will survive, but good eitherway.
The plot was really original, and was originally planned for an X-Files episode. Glad it wasn't one though. The concept that death has a plan, and controls everything is definately a real intriguiner to the film.
The acting was beleivable, and realistic. "Ali Larter" is the real star, she was then and still is an upcoming actress, whos ability here really shines thriugh. "Kerr Smith" is also great at his role.
Overall "Final Destination" is a great teen-oriented horro flick, that is a definate for any horror fan. My rating is 3.5/5.

man i even watched this series backwards and the first was still amazing even after seeing the third and second, but what i said ealier stands true that these three movies depended on the deaths in them and this one was lacking compared to the other two...

The death scenes in this movie is what made it entertaining because I frankly didn't really like any of the characters and found myself rooting for death just to shut them up. But it was original and enjoyable for the carnage so overall not bad.
The original and the best. What set this film apart when first released is the clever concept which happened to be thought up by two prominent writers from The X Files, that death itself is the villian and how can you possibly escape him when your number is up ? After years and years of watching standard stalk and slash movies this had smart ways of dispatching characters through creating 'accidents' that death had come up with. Some as simple as tripping in the bathroom and others more creative such as water dripping into a computer then the exploding screen cutting a victims throat, the writers came up with some fresh and totally original death sequences that sets this film apart. The cast are a likeable group of young adults such as Devon Sawa , Kerr Smith and Sean William Scott who weren't annoying and that makes a huge difference as so many horror movies have brainless idiot characters that deserve their fate. An original concept superbly executed make Final Destination one to watch again and again.

near perfect fun horror film that was a blast beginning to end, and i felt it was a new type of horror movie in the same way that when the first scream came out , it was the right place the right time with the right elements, a home run

Death itself is the villain in this story; it's trying to catch up with a bunch of teens who managed to avoid a fatal plane explosion. Tony Todd turns in a memorable but brief appearance. Interesting premise and a lot of fun, but I would have appreciated some more fleshed-out characters.
