 | | 4. Final Destination (Platinum Series) | | | Starring: Devon Sawa Ali Larter Director: James Wong | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/16/2007 |  | Final Destination - DVD Review By: James Brundage - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 3/27/2009 5:36 PM | |
"I'm never going to die!" yells one character at a memorial for 39 fellow French-class students who died in a plane crash that, by all rights, he should have died on too. As incredibly laughable as this line is, it provides the big flaw in the basic premise behind Final Destination… making a horror movie about people cheating death does not have much potential. Since you can't kill Death, destroy Death, or send Death screaming back to its home planet, you have a no-win scenario in front of you. No matter what is said or done, everyone ends up getting it. read the full review | |

 | | 5. Obsessed | | | Starring: Beyonce Knowles Ali Larter Director: Steve Shill | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/26/2010 | | Obsessed (2009) - DVD Review By: Jason McKiernan - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 7/24/2009 7:48 PM | |
One pretty much knows what to expect going into a movie titled Obsessed. And in this case, that title delivers on every front -- a big business hotshot is propositioned by a disturbed secretary, and she turns into a vicious femme fatale who stalks our hero and attempts to tear down the magnificent life he has worked hard to build. What outrageous, over-the-top tripe. And what hysterical fun. Here is the most fantastically overwrought, deliberately melodramatic, white-knuckle B-movie of the year, a film so steeped in the formula of the psycho-sexual suspense flick that it works as both a thriller and a comedy. read the full review | |

 | | 9. Final Destination 2 (infinifilm-Dts) | | | Starring: A.J. Cook Ali Larter Director: David R. Ellis | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/16/2007 | | Final Destination 2 - DVD Review By: Norm Schrager - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 8/7/2009 7:48 PM | |
For all of you budding screenwriters, here is a simple set of guidelines to help you pen the next Final Destination film (yes, there will probably be another, even if it’s direct-to-video): First, devise really hideous, graphic ways for people to die — five or six deaths should do it. Second, tie the gruesomeness together by having paper-thin characters explain the plot — the grim reaper gives chase to those who’ve cheated death — over and over again. Lastly, keep the dialogue simple and void of any entertaining qualities, relying on devices like flipping the bird for big laughs. read the full review | |
