Final Destination (2000) 8/10

Starring : Devon Sawa, Ali Larter, Kerr Smith, Kristen Cloke, Seann William Scott
Director : James Wong
Running Time : 94 mins

When Alex Browning (Sawa) has a prophetic dream warning him that the plane he is on is going to crash, he panics and is excorted from the plane, along with a number of other school friends. So, when the plane explodes in mid air, the survivors find themselves feeling survivor’s guilt, that is until they find that death, feeling cheated, is coming after them in the order they should have died.

A great start to a strong trilogy, this series continued to impress me, particularly the second one which I thought was really good. Granted, there is going to be a stage when the writers run out of ideas, but so far they’ve done well, but perhaps now would be the time to stop before the formula becomes so diluted that no one wants to see them anymore.
