Audience Reviews for The Final Destination

  • Nov 18, 2012
    Good fourth part but it's the same as the rest and adds little new to the whole story but the 3D made it better as it was used pretty well, But that's all to take away from this film really.
    Jamie C Super Reviewer

    Better looking than the abomination 3 offered, but just as stale and we care about the characters even less. Too many things look computer generated to "pop" off the screen and the pacing is just awful. Good try, New Line, and let's hope this really is "The Final Destination."

    'The Final Destination' takes a once unique concept and murders it before our very eyes. The formula has now become so old and tired, it could be a body double for Kirk Douglas. Ah, snap!

    It's the worst out of all the films to date, predictable, failing at being funny, bad 3D animations, messy. Utterly pointless
