Critic Reviews

Lisa Schwarzbaum

An unexpectedly alert teen-scream disaster chiller. Read full review

Mick LaSalle

Playful and energized enough to keep an audience guessing. Read full review

Lisa Alspector

Disturbing--if less sophisticated than the best SF (science fiction)-horror TV. Read full review

Jay Carr

Starts by cheating death and ends by cheating us. Read full review

Walter Addiego

Stupid. Read full review

Fails because it takes itself both too seriously and not seriously enough. Read full review

TNT RoughCut Tom Cappello

Inane, irresponsible, immature, poorly written.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Character error (at around 1h 25 mins) When Clear is in the car that was being attacked by the electrical wires, Alex said that the car was "grounded by the tires". This is incorrect as the rubber tires are actually an insulator, hence they do not complete the circuit (for example, ground the car). Also, the car should act as a partial Faraday cage, which means that all of the charge would be on the outside surface of the object (in this case the car), and that the person inside would be safe.… Expand

This movie suffers greatly from early 2000s cringe but overall is a fresh new idea and makes a decent film.

Final Destination is creepy and enjoyable. Movie's concept was new, "Death is coming for you even if you try to cheat it." Movie showed deaths using everything we do or see at home. The way deaths happened, you may get frightened and think what if this happens in reality. The direction isFinal Destination is creepy and enjoyable. Movie's concept was new, "Death is coming for you even if you try to cheat it." Movie showed deaths using everything we do or see at home. The way deaths happened, you may get frightened and think what if this happens in reality. The direction is little bit weak and acting could also been much better. These things doesn't bother you as you are busy enjoying the thrill and drama. This movie gives mixed feeling of horror, drama and thrill.
Overall, will recommend everyone to give it a try.… Expand

I thought it was pretty good, not sure why the critics hated it so much. It was suspenseful, interesting, decently acted. Great special effects. Oddly fascinating.
