It’s clear the studio executives were focused on creating another profitable installment in the Final Destination series, and it shows. It's easy to picture them at a meeting, brainstorming ways to keep the formula going while maximizing profits—one suggesting more elaborate death sequences, another pointing out the resurgence of 3D technology. The finished product is very conscious of its origins, but ultimately feels like the least impressive film in the franchise. Like bringing James Wong back for the third movie, they’ve brought David R. Ellis, director of the second installment, to helm this one. However, it seems more like a case of favoritism than a smart creative choice because The Final Destination is mostly just over 82 minutes of uninspired performances, weak dialogue, and a string of deaths held together by brief moments of underdeveloped characters—the exposition being as unpleasant as the violent deaths themselves. The death scenes are diverting, as they usually are in these movies, and the opening disaster sequences (this time set at a speedway) continue a beloved series tradition. The X-Ray/Skeletal credit sequences at the beginning and end are excellent and deserve recognition. Nevertheless, it all feels stale; despite attempts to modernize the presentation, the film is uninspired and lacks any real reason for existing beyond generating revenue. The next installment will need to be exceptional if they want to prevent this franchise from becoming a punchline—a series that started with originality but has devolved into a predictable cash grab. 4/10
