Week in and week out, horror movies cheat us, so it's wonderfully cathartic to watch a bunch of kids cheat death in what turns out to be the best installment yet in the "Final Destination" franchise.

The plot's pretty lame, the dialogue is downright hokey, and the characters are a bore, but somehow Final Destination 3 (an oxymoron if there ever was one) still delivers a certain degree of over-the-top amusement.

Almost the perfect Final Destination series in all, effects are awesome. Actors in the movie are natural. The roller coaster deaths are very brutal that makes the movie a perfect horror movie. It does manage the formula of horrors with brutal or gory deaths. It does good. I hope the Final Destination 5 makes an another perfect formulatic horror movie.

Fortunately for us, they number these Final Destination scarefests. Otherwise, it would be impossible to tell them apart.

In the story's one major stroke of invention, the usual premonitions of death have been replaced with a set of photos.

With a premise as cavalier as this, perhaps director and co-writer James Wong could have found a tone more original than post-Wes Craven cynicism. Instead, he panders to viewers, allowing them to take gleeful comfort in the destruction of the stupid and doomed.

There's nothing fresh or off-beat in Final Destination 3, no talent that is struggling to get out. The only thing struggling to get out was me from the theater.

A Mary nesse filme está incrível, todas as atuações em geral mas os personagens são muito clichês é praticamente só servem pra morrer mas tirando isso tá muito bom

With the 3 the saga almost returns to the levels of the first for fantasy of the deaths and adds a little plot stuff to make the film become slightly more interesting and not the exact copy of the predecessor.

Final Destination 3 is creepy, enjoyable and better than the first part but not than 2nd part. This movie had the iconic roller coaster scene and the way deaths happened, you may get frightened. In this part, the way deaths happened it looked unlikely it would happen in real life. The direction was better than 1st part but not than 2nd part. Acting by the two main leads was good. Like the first two, you will be busy enjoying the thrill and drama and will give you blended feeling of horror, drama and thrill. Overall, will recommend everyone to give it a try.

This is when the series starts to sacrifice a decent plot for more graphic kills. The kills are far more creative and more graphic than the previous films but the quality of the story and the acting have nosedived. It almost makes the film unwatchable.

Final Destination 3 is sickening, not only from the deaths but also from the acting and writing. The movie is far lazier in coming up with different kind of deaths. A pretty bad movie all around.
