I have read other comments on the movie final destination and there seems to be some mixed reviews. Personally I enjoyed it very much. The death scenes were quite elaborate and the plot of the story was very original.
With a cast of bright young actors including Devon Sawa (Idle Hands), Kerr Smith (Dawson's Creek), Ali Larter (Varsity Blues) and Seann William Scott (American Pie) this movie appeals to the teen generation for sure.
The movie begins with Alex Browning (Sawa) and his classmates boarding a plane for a class trip to France, but after Alex has a terrible vision of the plane exploding, he panics and is escorted off the plane along with several other students. Alex's vision comes true and then the horror begins. Because of Alex's actions, he and the other people have cheated death, thereby ruining Death's "Great Plan" and screwing up the pattern. So in order to stay alive Alex must again uses his visions to cheat death again, and by doing that he will supposedly be safe. This film has a great plot, and wonderful acting. There were however some questions that i was left with....1. Was Candyman supposed to be Death incarnate? 2. Why was Alex (Sawa) so special that only he could see the visions? Regardless of the questions left in your mind the movie really gets you thinking about death. Does Death really have a plan for all of us? Or can we change our own destinies. There are a few heart stopping moments, including one death scene that is totally unexpected. The others are kind of predictable but that is what makes it more intense,because you know what is going to happen but you watch the character go painfully slow through the events leading up to it. All in all, I thought it was an excellent movie and I would absolutely recommend it as a heart-stopping date flick....Go and see it...I give it an 8.5 out of 10.
