Destination finale: Bloodlines

Loved the movie.. and from what I noticed in the movie theatre and from my friends. Everyone enjoyed it! I personally enjoyed the overall story.. The opening scene in the tower is amazing really. Showed the story back in the old days and after many years in our time how death (a person) follows everyone.

I liked it.. Especially how the story carries on.. as a family curse plot. Some people find Final Destination movies repetitive.. true. I guess hardcore fans might expect/anticipate every single shot because it follows the same path as the old movies. But this one is very enjoyable.

Really keeps you at the edge of your seat. Most accidents were amusing to be honest. Especially the one in the MRI machine. Very creative.

Not bad at all. It makes the most logically-connected sense out of all the FD series. But... Realism? Way less now. Personally, it's still between "mid" to the "quite good" level. The FD series have always stood out in the category of horror. This movie still has some questionable scenes that leaves me with slight curiosity on how some of the occurences could be avoided, but it didn't disappoint me. The casting is wonderful and so is the acting. Plus, this one's highly supernatural and not as gory as the others in terms of screen time. A lot relies on the sound/music, and angles. I watched it in Premiere so I got the benefit of the sound system's work. The special effects and lighting quality made every scene look realistic in portrayal. What impressed me is that this is one of those moderate-comeback horror thrillers that's categorized as supernatural but isn't involving a visible entity or character. These kinds of movies stand out to me. And I'm overall impressed by the tense moments FD is able to exhibit. Also, this is my first review on IMDb!

Really enjoyed this one! It's super brutal again, but the story was told differently this time with the whole Bloodlines twist, which made it feel fresh and exciting. The plot was good and kept me entertained all the way through, with lots of intense moments, great pacing, and a few cool surprises along the way. I watched it in D-Box with Dolby Atmos - the sound was absolutely amazing, super powerful, and the moving seats made it even more intense and fun. Definitely a unique cinema experience. If you enjoy brutal action, great sound, and a fresh twist, you should totally check it out. Solid 7/10!

I don't know how they managed to pull this off, but somehow Final Destination: Bloodlines is the best Final Destination film of the lot!

What it does so well is to stand on its own as a fun experience, whilst also building on and adding to existing Final Destination mythology. It contains some nice nods and easter eggs to the previous films, and also weaves in Tony Todd's stalwart Final Destination character in a very satisfying way. However, none of this feels out of place to the point where newcomers will feel lost. Watching this film makes the previous Final Destination films better in my opinion due to the way it adds to the mythology.

Another great thing about this film is that it deviates from the standard Final Destination formula. Don't get it twisted, it is still largely the same thing, but the whole 'bloodlines' element does add something different. This makes it feel quite fresh, which is a big problem the franchise had after the second film in my opinion.

In terms of the performances and characters these are good. Certainly more fleshed out than the last couple of films. Kaitlyn Santa Juana is a strong lead as Stefani, and the rest of the characters are decently developed and interesting enough. Unlike some of the previous Final Destination films, I did find myself caring about the fate of these characters.

Then there is the main attraction of these films, the gory kills. You won't be disappointed watching this instalment as there are some top kills. The use of practical effects work was also very impressive in bringing them to life. They are all classic Final Destination kills, and will stick in your mind long after watching the film!

Overall this film was such a big surprise. It easily had potential to be a lazy cash grab, but they managed to make a thoroughly entertaining film that showed a lot of love and appreciation for the franchise. If you have enjoyed any of the previous Final Destination films or just have a penchant for gory horror, then you will definitely enjoy this!

Final Destination: Bloodlines isn't going to pull a rabbit out of its undead hat, reinvent the horror wheel, or stake its claim as a genre-defining masterstroke-but that's not the point.

What it does do is breathe new life into a franchise that felt like it had run out of steam. Bloodlines is a solid sixth installment, packing the same patented "inevitable death" mechanics we know and (occasionally) love, but with enough fresh twists to keep die-hard fans from checking out.

If you never warmed to the idea of "death's design" calling the shots, this won't convert you. For everyone else, the film delivers brilliantly choreographed set pieces of grisly demise-think elaborate Rube Goldberg traps drenched in splatter FX-that hit the sweet spot between macabre creativity and good old-fashioned gore.

The biggest upgrade this time around is emotional buy-in: the victims aren't a bunch of arbitrary strangers thrown together by fate. Instead, Bloodlines builds sincere rapport with its core ensemble, giving each death a bit more narrative weight (and, yes, a smidge of pathos) before the inevitable payoff.

Unfortunately, the dialogue remains as thin as ever-flat exposition one moment, telenovela melodrama the next-reminding you that subtlety wasn't high on the call sheet.

On the plus side, the movie leavens the carnage with genuinely funny, ironically staged moments-many courtesy of Erik, whose over-the-top flair steals scenes from our so-called protagonist-and the delightfully absurd chain reactions (who knew the garbage truck could be such a menace?).

Even though the film trudges into its predictable finale with all the subtlety of a wrecking ball, Bloodlines is pure adrenaline: brutal, energetic, and darkly comedic. In other words, exactly what you paid for when you bought that Final Destination ticket.
