6.5/10 In my opinion, each film just keeps getting better... by .5 points. The first, IMO, was a 5.5, the 2nd was a 6, now this one is a good 6.5.
Why do I like this one the best? It tries hard not to sag as much as the others. While the first one left us in utter confusion, and the 2nd one tried hard to be tricky, this one really gives us a fun task: Trying to guess HOW the person will die based on the picture.
The opener is the 2nd best one in the series (Nothing beats the original's opener), and the Quantity of the deaths are better (3 good death scenes) but the Quality of them is best in the first (2 GREAT deaths)
So you can imagine my surprise to find that final destination 3 is a entertaining , funny and shocking thriller that proves that horror sequels can be pretty darn good if handled properly .
Directed by james wong with style and a pace that hits the ground running ,the film is very much like a roller coaster in its self - fast,packed full of laughs and most importantly full of frights .
The film is essentially a remake of the first film only with a different cast, gorier deaths and a higher level of self awareness.But this is a rare case in which copying the original isn't a bad thing- it keeps that sense of inventiveness and wit that made the first one great. It may be a clone , but its a very good one !
Final destination 3 is gory ,homourous and clever fun that will make me think twice about my horror sequel prejudice....
The bigger and bolder 'Final Destination 2' had its flaws but was just as good and perhaps the best of the four sequels. 'Final Destination 3' is just as big and bold, as well as gorier, and is also as good. Second sequels or third instalments of a franchise don't always fare well, especially in horror and comedy, 'Final Destination 3' is one of the better examples in a genre where sequels have a patchy history. The novelty has not yet worn off and in a way is more refined.
Sure, the story is more of the same and formulaic. Meanwhile, there is too much dull downtime between deaths where dialogue and exposition can be clumsy at times.
The special effects are not always brilliant and the characters are as shallow as ever.
However, 'Final Destination 3' is as atmospheric and stylish as its previous two films. The music has a haunting eeriness and James Wong does a more than competent job in the director's chair, showing a genuine understanding of the concept and the horror genre, breathing atmosphere, fun and freshness into a tried and tested formula and not losing what made his direction work in the first film.
Like the second, although there is a little too much of an over-reliance on gore, not all of it necessary, the death scenes are bolder, more elaborate and more creative (faring even better in this regard actually). The tanning bed and nail gun deaths were particularly good and two of the best and most imaginative of the series. The script has some wonderful humour that is black and ironic and has just as much tension and a sense of dread. The amusement park/roller-coaster scene is not as good as the opening scenes in the previous films, especially visually, but it's still very scary. The photo record is surprising and there is an intricacy in places.
'Final Destination 3' has the best ending perhaps of the series, to me it's the least contrived and more logical than the one in particularly the second film. In the acting stakes, it fares favourably too. Mary Elizabeth Winstead is very good.
Overall, a good deadly ride that's worth getting on board for, as long as one knows what to expect. 7/10 Bethany Cox
In this third installment of the ¨Final Destination¨ series appears none character repeating from former entries , it displays suspense, tension, thrills, and creepy deaths . The chief excitement lies in seeing what new and astonishing victim can be dreamt by the believable FX technicians . Movie exist for only aim of murdering its protagonists and all around in terrifying realistic detail . Death seem to dispatch new weird killing every few minutes of movie, throughout crashing, beheading , blowing up , crushing, burning , etc . Here death is a mere computer generator FX , the ultimate gross-out show . It's frightening and entertaining though predictable but we have seen the original with similar and interesting premise . Although its predictability is redeemed in part by the charismatic acting of protagonists and all around . Colorful and appropriate cinematography by Robert McLachlan . Thrilling musical score fitting to action and suspense by Shirley Walker . The motion picture is written by Glen Morgan and professionally directed by James Wong , though without originally because of going on the similar argument to former outings , being a fresh fodder . Wong has a long career as writer , producer : X-files and finally filmmaker , directing Box office success such as ¨The one¨, ¨Final destination¨ and the flop ¨Dragon ball¨. Followed by more sequels.

- QuizTony Todd, who portrayed William Bludworth in Final Destination (2000) and Final Destination 2 (2003) provides the voice of the devil above the entrance to the roller coaster. He also provides the speaker's voice saying, "This is the end of the line" in the subway towards the end of the film.
- Blooper(at around 4 mins) Wendy uses the schools camera for the yearbook, saying that she has to turn in the pictures for a deadline. But in the scene where she is picking up her diploma (at around 24 mins) everyone already has their yearbooks. Later, Julie asks to use the camera to get pictures of graduation to meet deadline.
- Citazioni
Ian McKinley: Equal... in death's eyes? All of us? How can you say that? Dude, think it through: Charlie Manson, made it to 70, Osama, still kicking. Pimps, vice presidents, walking around, all the atrocities they've committed, they're alive and well. These two girls, never done shit to anybody, they don't get to make it to 18. Where's the fucking equality in that?
- Curiosità sui creditiAt the end of the credits you will hear the mortician (William Bludworth) laugh.
- Versioni alternativeThe free preview bonus DVD that came packaged with the "Final Destination: Scared 2 Death Pack" featured an extended version of the scene where Wendy and Kevin are being escorted off the roller coaster by security. In this version, they don't cut away to show the roller coaster flying off the tracks. Instead you only hear the accident as a horrified Wendy witnesses the incident.
