Final Destination 3

I'd seen 3 of the 5 films in this series and knew that this was the third entry, but defying logic I went into it thinking there would be scenes that frightened me. Instead it plays like the rest by setting up a Rube Goldberg series of events that lead to a Wile E. Coyote guessing game of how someone is going to die horribly. Despite that being the sole reason for watching this, the very essence of what this has to offer, and my wild enjoyment of it, I thought it would be scary so no stars.

Significantly worse than the previous two.

This movie is completely miscategorized. It's obviously a comedy, and as a comedy, it is spectacular.

We all know what we are getting here. Funniest moment is when Frankie Cheeks refers to himself as Franklin Cheeks at a funeral. This is the type of the film where the ending is on a train, and then they play "Love Train" during the credits. We aren't dealing with Citizen Kane, people.

The third installment of the popular gore-fest is obviously weaker than the previous two seeming dulled down after another rehash of the original idea. The set piece of the film is the rollercoaster ride, but although immediately promising it soon becomes clear that it is lacking and visually something seems missing. Left without a major punch to start off the film it soon becomes a typical series of deaths and decapitations.
