Final Destination 3



Directed by: James Wong
Written by: Glen Morgan, James Wong
Stars: Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Ryan Merriman, Kris Lemche, Alexz Johnson, Sam Easton, Jesse Moss, Gina Holden, Texas Battle


Plot: High school senior Wendy attends an amusement park with all her friends. They all decide to go on a roller coaster (with the voice of Tony Todd). Like the others before her, Wendy has a premonition of the roller coaster malfunctioning and everyone on board dying. Quickly, she rushes herself and her friends off the ride before it actually malfunctions and kills those who remain on the coaster. However, Death returns to claim more survivors, and no-one is safe. This film returns with the staff behind FD 1, director James Wong and writer Glen Morgan.

This film is as good as the first one. There are a lot of fun kills throughout the film. One of my personal favorite kills is the death at the gym. (won't go into spoilers) The acting is pretty standard for a teen slasher film, with some Disney stars in this one (Ryan Merriman was in The Luck of the Irish, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead was in Sky High). The movie has a good pace to it, and it never feels slow or boring. I liked the use of CGI in the film, with the roller coaster premonition among the best parts of the film.

A great threequel for Final Destination fans. Check it out!

7/10
