The Final Destination 3D (DVD) Reviews

How to Kill A Franchise ================ I thought three had put pay to any more sequels, but the 3D pull must have given them ideas (bad ones). This time a race track is the setting for deaths stalk after a guy has a premonition and "saves" some people. People who are so shallow that I am surprised death ...  Read the complete review

After the disappointment of Final Destination 3 which saw a group of teenagers attempting to cheat Death after escaping from a rollercoaster crash, FD returns with its next big budget installment which, I have to say, is much better than the last feeble offering! This time around, the setting is a Speedway race with Nick ...  Read the complete review

*Note - This is a movie only review for the 2D version* I absolutely loved the first 3 Final Destination movies and was so excited when they released a fourth. However, having an unexplained fear of the cinema, I never got around to seeing it. So with my free Blockbuster rental (see previous review), I decided I would finally ...  Read the complete review

Sex scene, check. Blood and gore, check. Pointless, tedious, predictable, boring, unoriginal plot, check. This film is really bad. It seems as though the creators thought that the 3D aspect would attract enough fools to watch this movie and there was no need to even try and write a good script. They were right, it ...  Read the complete review

The modern take on the horror genre has, as a rule, not impressed me. There seems to be an increase in levels of gore and what you see, but inversely this actually makes the films less interesting. No longer does the imagination play any part in the viewer's enjoyment of the film as all the shocks are offered to them on one obvious ...  Read the complete review

I really enjoyed the premier Final Destination movie 10 years ago and watched all the sequels with great anticipation. Unfortunately none of them came even close to matching the suspense of the original. The basic premise remains the same in this latest release. The lead character gets a premonition of an event which leads to ...  Read the complete review

...I think that they maybe trying to trick us, I hear the 5th installment is already being made! Nick has a preminition at a race track that he and his friends, as well as many others are going to die in a freak accident. He gets some people to follow him out of the stadium and they survive. However, this isn't what ...  Read the complete review

The Final Destination films, they are there for one reason only and that is the cool death scenes, only this time they are in 3D. When the first Final Destination came out it was new, refreshing, a good story that made you think without actually being a film you had to use much brainpower with. It came with quite a cool ...  Read the complete review

There are not many DVDs nowadays that I actually buy when they are first released as I pay a subscription to Lovefilm to receive film rentals through the post. Generally Lovefilm are good for sending me new releases or films that I actually want to watch and rather than pay full price for a film I'm only likely to watch once I will ...  Read the complete review

I'd just like to point out that I watched this without the 3D glasses, therefore watching it in 2D. ~~~ Synopsis ~~~ A day at the speedway track turns into a nightmare for Nick and his three friends when he has a premonition of them all being killed. The group leaves the stadium just in time to miss the destruction, ...  Read the complete review

This is the 2009 fourth installment of the final destination series. This film was directed by David R Ellis. The movie is just an add on to the other three movies which see a small group of youngsters at McKinley race track, one of the youths has a vision of a deadly accident and a number of people exit the stadium only ...  Read the complete review

Sometimes 3D films focus so much on the special effects they forget some of the more important things like plot development and interesting dialogue instead relying on the thrills created by the extra dimension to stimulate the viewer and hold their interest. It has to be said though that Final Destination 3D does lend itself ...  Read the complete review

This review is for final destination 4 on dvd, I apologise that i can't tell you how much the dvd costs because i had borrowed it from my sister-in-law. but if you go to www.Amazon.com, i'm sure it will be reasonably priced. The film starts at a race track during a grnd prix, when the main character has a disturbing ...  Read the complete review

I have always been of the opinion that 3D movies are often poor movies because the makers focus far too much time and energy on the technology and special effects and this is to the detriment of things like plot and dialogue, with the exception of Ice Age 3 most 3D movies have supported ths opinion and this one is no ...  Read the complete review

Not exactly a movie with a complicated plot, but as it was a 3D movie, I thought I'd watch it on the big screen. The trilogy prior to this, as most trilogy's tend to, started to drift off into the abyss. Like I, said, had this not been a 3D experience, I more than likely would not have watched it. This movie comes under the genre ...  Read the complete review

A large scale car smash up and series of accidents at a Nascar race track provides the setting for the beginning of this film. This scene in itself is very impressive, especially in 3D, and introduces the main players for the rest of the film. It is a high octane sequence and provides thrills aplenty mostly because of the 3D element. ...  Read the complete review

On my way into the cinema to see my first ever 3-d film, I happened to comment to my cousin how much funner horror was for the American's. You hear stories of them being carried out on stretchers, vomiting in the aisles and screaming their lungs out at the drop of a pin. Here in Britain, we simply jolt for a second and then shudder as ...  Read the complete review

The final destination is the fouth film in the Horror franchise. It uses the same old formula of cheating death and it comes back to kill you in horrific and gruesome ways. The film has an advantage of being 3d that looks incredible on screen and adds a bt more fun into the series. The film however lacks from a ...  Read the complete review

A few weeks ago I sat in the cinema, and witnessed what I assumed would be absolute perfection. The reason for this was the theme of the trailer I had just seen. Being a massive fan of NASCAR, I was delighted to see a trailer that appeared to centre around some form of NASCAR. However my excitement was short lived when a loose ...  Read the complete review
