The film starts to pick up after it begins borrowing liberally from The Omen, even more liberally than the film's two predecessors which, as freak-accident horror films, are by definition Omen clones.

Reviews for Final Destination 3
This one regresses the series to what Roger Ebert, back in the splatter-film '80s, dubbed the Dead Teenager genre.

As a forced, unnecessary addition to the series, it lacks a satisfying relationship to its predecessors while simply rehashing the original's plot ...

So lazily plotted and poorly written, one wonders why New Line didn't just release a half-hour version consisting of nothing but death scenes.

Director James Wong enjoys organizing dangerous objects and circumstances into precariously menacing Rube Goldberg arrangements.

A great date movie for couples who like to share their revulsion at squelchy death scenes and hug each other in dread. Not recommended for the squeamish.

Planes, trains, automobiles, the Final Destination franchise has them covered. Is there no safe place for precocious, horny teenagers to hang out and have a good time?

...the sick kind of comedy that involves laughing at stupid people being ripped in half, but we know there are plenty of you out there.

In its own morbid little way, this is very much a stand-up-and-cheer -- or shriek, as the case may be -- kind of film.
03/04/06
This film is the least of the three: it lacks the novelty of the first film and the cleverly morbid humor of the second one.
02/25/06
With its third outing, the Final Destination series surprisingly gets a second wind.
02/22/06
YOu know, the "Final Destination" movies contain characters who are self-obsessed, cheap, profane and mean-spirited. Maybe that's why it's so much fun to watch them get taken out, one by one.

You won't be scared one bit, but that's not exactly the point here. The murder is the only message.
02/18/06
Enjoyable threequel which delivers handsomely on the demands of the franchise: an attractive cast, inventive direction, a dark sense of humour and increasingly nasty death sequences.
