It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Final Destination 3 is the first time in the franchise where things start to feel a bit stale, but I can't say that I didn't still enjoy this one.Compared to the first two, the characters aren't nearly as likable, though their relationships are a bit more solid. The deaths are more innovative, which makes sense, considering they've already done some more cliche deaths in the first two.The major accident at the beginning was a lot more small-scale, but I don't think that detracted from the film at all.This could be considered the start of the downfall of the franchise, but considering I really, really enjoy the 5th film, it's more accurate to say that this is just the humpday of the Final Destination Franchise.Watch it if you've seen the first two and enjoyed them.

While it was not a great or perfect film (particularly in the dialogue, ending and some of the acting), the first 'Final Destination' was entertaining and effective (especially with its terrific opening plane sequence and the creative deaths) with a fascinating idea done well.The bigger and bolder 'Final Destination 2' had its flaws but was just as good and perhaps the best of the four sequels. 'Final Destination 3' is just as big and bold, as well as gorier, and is also as good. Second sequels or third instalments of a franchise don't always fare well, especially in horror and comedy, 'Final Destination 3' is one of the better examples in a genre where sequels have a patchy history. The novelty has not yet worn off and in a way is more refined.Sure, the story is more of the same and formulaic. Meanwhile, there is too much dull downtime between deaths where dialogue and exposition can be clumsy at times.The special effects are not always brilliant and the characters are as shallow as ever.However, 'Final Destination 3' is as atmospheric and stylish as its previous two films. The music has a haunting eeriness and James Wong does a more than competent job in the director's chair, showing a genuine understanding of the concept and the horror genre, breathing atmosphere, fun and freshness into a tried and tested formula and not losing what made his direction work in the first film.Like the second, although there is a little too much of an over-reliance on gore, not all of it necessary, the death scenes are bolder, more elaborate and more creative (faring even better in this regard actually). The tanning bed and nail gun deaths were particularly good and two of the best and most imaginative of the series. The script has some wonderful humour that is black and ironic and has just as much tension and a sense of dread. The amusement park/roller-coaster scene is not as good as the opening scenes in the previous films, especially visually, but it's still very scary. The photo record is surprising and there is an intricacy in places.'Final Destination 3' has the best ending perhaps of the series, to me it's the least contrived and more logical than the one in particularly the second film. In the acting stakes, it fares favourably too. Mary Elizabeth Winstead is very good.Overall, a good deadly ride that's worth getting on board for, as long as one knows what to expect. 7/10 Bethany Cox

I remember watching this before the forth film came out. I'd thought it's the best Final Destination movie ever because the death scenes, roller coaster accident, and good soundtrack just like the two previous films. I'd have to admit the ending is a bit of a slap of a face like having another vision about a train being wreck I'd think it don't fit in that way even though it's a plot twist so yeah. I think it's better then the fifth film because the film is a bit water down but the death scenes in the film is good. I'd recommend it to people who like film like these.
