Product Description
AFTER A TEEN'S PREMONITION OF A DEADLY RACE-CAR CRASH HELPS SAVES THE LIVES OF HIS PEERS, DEATH SETS OUT TO COLLECT THOSE WHO EVADED THEIR END.
Amazon.com
Installment #4 in the premonition-laden Final Destination series comes on like a poker-faced send-up of the previous episodes, featuring a collection of hilariously over-the-top deaths and the usual array of Rube Goldberg set-ups--except this time the chain reactions rarely result in mayhem. Fate, it seems, is more random than that. We open at a racetrack, where vapid teen Bobby Campo has a vision of slaughter involving cars crashing and bleachers crumbling. When he hustles girlfriend Shantal VanSanten and their friends out of the grandstands before the real conflagration, it doesn't take long to figure out that their time is going to come, and soon. (Which they would have known if they'd watched the first three Final Destination movies.) From there, it's just waiting around for the killings, which this time utilize a car wash, a beauty parlor, and a tow truck run amok. Perhaps the gruesomeness of the deaths this time is explained by the cheapjack production (gotta grab 'em with something) and surely the many jabbing, jutting implements are there because the film was released to some theaters in 3-D. As for the death that occurs in a swimming-pool drain, it seems somebody read Chuck Palahniuk's notorious story "Guts," or at least had an ear for urban legends. The bland characters and tin-ear dialogue don't help anything, even if the climactic sequence in a movie theater showing a 3-D film suggests a lurking sense of self-awareness. Moral: there may be three dimensions, but there's only one destination. --Robert Horton

 Final Destination March 9, 2010
Ilini
Loved this movie and if you have seen the ones before you'll have to see this one !
The seller promissed it all and delivered !
 this series is "played out" March 8, 2010
James C. Ward (Tuscaloosa area AL, USA)
this is the 4th installment in the series- I recommend the first two in the series. The 3rd & 4th films really don't offer any new thrills. "Death" is the un-seen character in these films, and the first film especially is very clever and interesting to watch (if you're a horror fan).

The Final Destination March 8, 2010
Van Winkel "Rip" (Hemet, Calif)
There are very few well made horror films, however the "Final Destination" series is an exception to the rule. Decent story with good acting and interesting characters.Well filmed with a lot of action.Worthwhile for horror fans.
 Just watch part 1 February 28, 2010
J. J Woehr (Lindenhurst, NY United States)
For a film that's supposed to be the last of the series, the Final Destination offers nothing new. If you're expecting a clever end to the series with someone finding a way to defeat death without it finally catching up with him or her, think again. While the 3-D doesn't make the weak effects look any better or make us forget that we've seen this all before. No wonder Michael Bay is putting Transformer 3 in 3-D. We'll get the same story and the same actors running around in slow motion and plenty of explosions, but this time in....3-D to try and distract the viewer from the fact that we seen all that before.
The Final Destination just has someone having a vision of himself and his friends dieing at a race car show. The bad accident then really happens, but his friends and others get out safe. But...oh no, death had a plan for them to die too and now they are dieing in the same order that they would have at the show. If I wanted to see a better movie with all that executed well,...I'd watch the first film. Oh no, here's a spoiler, part 3 had a very similar ending and it was done much better in that film.
The destination was final. February 28, 2010
Harold Edward Wills (Hagerstown, Maryland USA)
and so was the movie. "We know we are going to die." ... one of the memorable lines.
Far over hyped. I sometimes wonder if these movies are actually conceived to have their 3 seconds of movie theators and then go to die on the webstores like Amazon.
