Summary
Featured reviews
Only way another Final Destination movie would be acceptable,if survivors returned & finally found a way to end things.. Closing what started a generational chain reaction,even before some were born. Etc.
Outside of the cameo with the legendary TT everything else,was basically been there seen that production.. Nothing felt overly original,not clichéd or perhaps with plotholes.
Not disregarding some of the opening scene positives but was like they used the whole budget on that,as the remaining movie felt lackluster.
Did anyone think the home Iris created felt more like,she was trying to keep out walkers versus death? All those spikes,etc. Logic failure!
Notice movies that claim to be horror try to fit in the all type of categories,to get most viewership regardless these days.. Where it can be on Shudder for example,but also under Disney.
I'm rather shocked with the high ratings,but also feel people(certain generations)don't appreciate quality movies anymore.
Acting to actors chosen was tolerable,cinematography & music was fine.. However you just didn't care about anyone,rooting for them or upset if they died.
Not part of the trilogy will probably rewatch,but was worth viewing once.
Cons:
- The CGI blood and kills. Nothing takes me out of a scene more than dark red cartoon blood. With a film that is built PRIMARILY on deaths it should be quite limited on the usage of CGI. We've seen great use of practical effects which is why this feels like such wasted potential. The biggest reason these movies work is because no matter how ridiculous the set up is the death still feels real (4th sequel excluded). It doesn't have the same effect if the person dying sudden looks like an animated character.
- This might be the most useless protagonist since the 4th installment. The main character might be the blandest character in the whole movie, and she has some tough competition because only 3 people stand out in this movie. I can forgive throw away characters if the deaths are memorable but both are lacking here.
- There have been rumors that there were reshoots and I believe them because the final act has some pacing issues and ends somewhat abruptly.
Pros:
- I will say that this film had the 2nd best opening scene/disaster behind the pile up.
- Tony Todd's goodbye was moving and possibly the best dialogue he has given in the franchise.
- The hospital death scene involving an MRI machine has a great build up of suspense and emotion and is up there with other iconic final destination death scenes.
- While there is more cons then pros for me I still had a good time and still fun to see in theaters. While some FD sequels miss the mark there is always another sequel that can surpass it. Can't wait for the next sequels!!
Humor, yes, dark humor, mixed with very nice CGI and well, not so predictable ending.
We made a game, watching and predicting/betting who's gonna die next and how.
Very entertaining.
Screenplay good, acting very decent.
Solid 7 in my opinion.
Was worth waiting.
Was worth watching.
The deaths are far more creative, and while the accidents themselves aren't typical for a horror movie, they're events you could imagine happening in everyday life. Still, these occurrences are something we haven't seen in the series before, making the film all the more unpredictable.
It's been 14 years since the last installment, and I'm glad the creators decided to bring Final Destination back. I think they nailed the essence of the story, and the film is just as good as the previous ones, if not better than some. The effects are incredible, the CGI is top-notch, and we've been lacking a high-quality horror film like this, especially in the last few years.
I have to mention that the film disgusted and shocked me more than the previous ones, which means they nailed the effects. This film not only satisfies fans of the franchise but also brings something new and revitalizes the series.

Did you know
- TriviaTony Todd was allowed total creative control over his final scene, since he clearly didn't have much time left and the crew wanted him to have the final word of his career. His final monologue was one that the crew encouraged him to use to impart some last advice to fans.
- GoofsThe way the MRI machine works in the film is completely unrealistic to life. While the magnetic forces of MRI machines can be strong and pull in metallic objects, the way the film portrays the machine is far from reality.
For starters, MRI machines are in a shielded room due to their strong magnetic forces and not in an office that anyone (doctors or patients) can walk in and out of. They are also always switched on and never turned off.
Even if MRI machines were able to be switched on and off, it would take more than a simple keyboard command to activate it. Also, computers wouldn't be in the same room as MRIs due to them being affected by the strong magnetic forces.
There's no gauge to increase or decrease the machine's strength either, nor is there an override feature or a "Do not exceed" warning level.
The strong magnetic fields are only strong when in close proximity to the MRI machine (10-15ft away).
Most MRI machines across the US alone have a max Tesla strength of 3T (3 Tesla), with very few going to up 7T (7 Tesla) like in the film. The highest Tesla strength on an MRI machine can go up to 11T (11 Tesla).
