Final Destination 5

I was surprised to see a part 5 of this movie franchise, but it was a welcomed one though. And it was with some anticipation that I sat down to watch it.

Initially, the story here in part 5 is the same as in the previous four movies. Despite liking all movies, seen with a reviewer's eyes, the story has been abused a tad too many times now. I mean, seriously, it is just the same story over and over in all 5 movies. But what makes it worthwhile and worth watching is the inventive and cruel ways that people meet their demise at. At least that is it for me, it is what drives me to keep watching these movies. I want to see what ways people die, and I want to see the effects.

If you are a fan of the series, you definitely want to check out part 5 as well, as it is every bit as entertaining as the previous four, and the ways people die in this movie was cool - as in the previous movies as well. And the effects were quite nice, and it had just enough gore to keep most gorehounds well-fed as well.

Despite enjoying the movie and the deaths, five movies cooked on the same broth is just getting too thin. You know the story already before you sit down to watch the movie, it is not a matter of if they die, it is a matter of how they die.

One thing that was awesome in part 5 was the way they made it come full circle with the first original movie. That was a very inventive stroke of genius on the writer's part. Thumbs up for that twist, it was well worth it.

The cast in "Final Destination 5" was pretty good. Again, lots of nicely talented young actors and actresses, and people here did a great job with their roles and bringing their characters out on the screen.

"Final Destination 5" is well worth a watch, if for nothing else, then for the death scenes alone.

OK, Final Destination 5 is JUST AS GOOD as the first. And better than the sequels. It is violent as ever!, has great acting, the 3-D is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the plot is spectacular!!!! It' better than Final Destination 2, Final Destination 3 and Definitely The Final Destination 4! it makes The Final Destination (4, 2009) look like garbage. Me and my Dad loved it. And my Dad hated the last two. And the deaths are VERY disturbing and realistic. If you saw the last one and was turned off by it, then you will be surprised about this one. I'm glad I saw it!!!!! It was the scariest and most realistic Final Destination.

The Presage Paper employees take a bus to spend the day in a retreat. Sam (Nicholas D'Agosto) is an aspirant chef and his girlfriend Molly (Emma Bell) has just ended their relationship, since he intends to take an internship in culinary art in France. While crossing a suspension- bridge that is in maintenance, Sam has a vision where everybody in the bus including him dies after the bridge collapsing. Sam asks the driver to open the door and he leaves the bus with Molly.

His friend Peter Friedkin (Miles Fisher) and his girlfriend Candice Hooper (Ellen Wroe) follow Sam and Molly asking them to return to the bus. Olivia Castle (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), Isaac Palmer (P.J. Byrne), Nathan (Arlen Escarpeta) and their boss Dennis Lapman (David Koechner ) also leave the bus. When the bridge collapses, they all do not die. The Federal Agent Jim Block (Courtney B. Vance) suspects of Sam, but sooner he receives the technical report concluding that the bridge collapsed due to natural causes (wind).

During the funeral of their friends, a creepy man tells to Sam that death does not like to be cheated. Sooner Candice, Isaac and Olivia die in a stranger way and Sam recalls that the survivors are dying in the sequence that they had originally died. The next victim would be Nathan, but he accidentally causes the death of the rebel worker Roy. The survivors learn that if they trade spots with another victim, they receive the years left in the live of the victim.

When I see the franchise "Final Destination, I know exactly what I am going to see: a group of teenagers escaping from death in a first moment and then death chases each one of them since the storyline is always the same.

"Final Destination 5" has excellent CGI and very creative deaths and never disappoints; therefore the intention of the director is accomplished. The sequence with the collapse of the bridge is very impressive. The acting is also good and in the end I liked this film. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Premonição 5" ("Premonition 5")

"Death doesn't like to be cheated." When a group of employees on a work retreat head out on a bus one of the employees has a vision of a bridge collapse. When he tells everyone to get off only a few listen. All but eight die and the standard "Final Destination" plot takes over. This one did have a little different twist in it, but not enough to make it feel original again. If you are a fan of the series you will probably like this one. I have seen them all, and after the second one the only real exciting part for me was watching the way they kill people off. It may just be me, but after the "Final Destination", "Saw" and "Scream" series' it seems like all the cool ideas have been taken. There is really not much to say about this one that hasn't already been done. Un-original ideas, un-original deaths, un-original dialog...but from the fifth movie in a series this isn't a surprise and can't be held against it. On the other hand, if you can't think of any more ideas that you haven't seen before then don't make a new installment. The one great spot in the movie is the way that it ends...watch it and you will see what I mean. Overall, if you like the other four you will most likely like this one too. Just don't expect anything new. I give it a C.

Would I watch again? - I don't think so. Not really a series you can watch over and over.
