Final Destination 5 Review ~ Surpassing good

After the awkward fourth Final Destination (or THE Final Destination) number five sets things back on track by going back to Final Destination's roots while keeping it modern and fresh. Granted, its got the gory and death scenes that will the series is knowen for as well taken to a new level.

One of the coolest scenes is in the beginning when the bridge falls down, just because its so over the top and intense. The plot is pretty much the same, kids trying to escape from death. But this time, there is a new twist which works out rather well for the film. Which is if you kill someone you get their life. So the question is, are the characters willing to kill someone innocent so they can live? It works out well and makes for a pretty cool climax.

The kill scenes are over the top and gore tastic. Reminds me a little bit of Saw, so if your into that stuff, you won't be disappointed. Although the chance of any of these deaths happening in real life is pretty much next to zero percent.

The acting is Final Destination is pretty forgettable, its pretty much the same as the other films. Just looking scared, and then they die.

Overall, if your a fan of Final Destination, then you will enjoy number 5. As its a great step up from the pervious film. Now, I wonder what the hell Final Destination Six and Seven will be like.
