No pun intended as always. For those who grew up with the Final Destination movies - they may not have heard of a little movie franchise that started with Omen ... or now "restarted" with First Omen. This mirrors (again no pun intended) some of the deaths that came after (or before depending on how you look at it) ... and in quite the interesting and really "fun" way.
This also serves as the ... birth of ... let's say that franchise! The movie is great visually speaking - I understand if some might have liked it if this was a bit shorter - but the director needed or rather wanted to tell the story that way ... and it works! You have to guess where it is going - I know I was surprised towards the end - well I was able to figure some stuff out ... but just before it was revealed anyway.
That all said, really well acted and while it may tweak a bit of the original lore ... it tries to stay within the confines of what is already known. Well done - can't wait for more ... of the director, though I would not be surprised if they take some of the ... "things" explored/exposed here, that were not talked about in the original Omen Trilogy ... watch out for that ... and other stuff of course.
